L'habitation en bandes. Elle est à rez-de-chaussée ou à étage, le long de voies étroites et rappelle la rue du village du passé, avec espace vert, derrière ou devant, ou des deux côtés à la fois. Ces maisons en bande peuvent se concevoir sous forme de petites unités, groupées autour de placettes, avec éventuellement un noyau commercial. On peut noter également, dans ce genre de construction, la maison à patio, qui représente dans son esprit un concept de vie familiale fondé sur l'enveloppement du patio par l'entourage des pièces vers le jardin principal. 3, record 2, French, - maison%20%C3%A0%20patio
