Residences

Royalty, nobility, business people, and common folk are all interested in the structure and appearance of their homes. Many of the world's most well-known and beloved buildings are residences that were built at great expense by monarchs and aristocrats who commissioned famous architects. Families who were successful in business have also erected influential homes.

From castles and palaces to cottages and modern homes, residential buildings provide more than shelter. Each tells a fascinating story about the lives and times of the people who live there.
