Description
This timeline chronicles significant developments in housing from the industrialization of the 19th century to the year 2000. The passage of time appears to be the best nexus to visualize concurrent historical turning points and paradigm shifts, as well as buildings and newly developed building types emerging as a reaction thereto, or with the capability to set new standards around the world.
