The Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat (CTBUH) released Tall Buildings + Urban Habitat: Volume 3 in June. The third edition in three years (ELEVATOR WORLD, June 2019), it continues exploring a viable, sustainable urban habitat, with urban density playing an important role. “Tall buildings need to be seen as integrated pieces of urban infrastructure, dedicated to improving quality of life in the city as a whole,” the book explains. “This requires a cohesive, multidisciplinary response.” This 328-page edition provides a global overview of dense urban development, exploring projects, technologies and approaches currently reshaping skylines and urban spaces worldwide.
