Many people are choosing to persue their 'sea change' inland, and are creating some spectacular homes in well-hidden locations. However, the diversity and fragility of rural locations provide substantial challenges for the architect of today, primarily, how to insert a building into a pristine environment without affecting often delicate ecosystems.
Dostępność:na zamowienie Inspired by her travels in the Far East and understanding of the principles of space and proportion, Kelly Hoppen's rooms proclaim an ability to mix materials and textures in neutral backgrounds for a look that is in tune with modern western consciousness. This work shows how you can create this cool modern look on a modest budget. Starting with an outline of her signature principles, the book examines the key topics of understanding space, making an impact, living with the seasons, feeding the senses, defining public and private spaces, creating mood with lighting and introducing improvised and unexpected touches to free the imagination.
