Live-work units in subarctic climate as a part of sustainable city development : A design proposal
Today there is a wish from building entrepreneurs to be able to have other activities than traditional commercial areas on the street level in the residential housing while keeping the open store front windows facade. Another challenge today in development of cities are partially to maintain a socia...
