Give me a European style apartment with high ceilings and generous space and you have yourselves a deal!

That said, I've been working in my local building industry for almost 20 years and the trend that I see is that though there are more apartments being built, the quality has tanked. We have huge issues with mould, flammable facades, exploding glass, alternatives are rampant through the roof and price gouging.

Unfortunately this has fed the idea that apartment living is no good.

Not to mention real sound insulation between flats.
