Whether it’s a breathtaking penthouse on Fifth Avenue or an inconspicuous garden apartment in the East Village; an artist’s loft in SoHo or a private house tucked away on a quiet corner—New Yorkers know how to make their spaces both livable and imaginative, both functional and spectacular.

The focus of this monograph on Spanish-born Felix Candela (1919-1997) is on modern Mexican architecture and its international influence. Conducting daring structural experiments with materials such as reinforced concrete and experimenting with shell vaulting to find new methods to save costs and material in building, Candela not only succeeded in putting his engineering knowledge into high quality constructions but also into high quality architecture.
New York is the capital of the world, and rightly so. New York style influences fashion, culture, art, and lifestyle. Constantly evolving with new shopping and dining experiences, there’s a treasure trove of cool places to discover in New York City, the world’s ultimate metropolis. This accessible guide covers both the newly established and the just-arrived. With the smarts and savvy of supermodel Lydia Hearst and fashion photographer Russell James we present the hippest places—to party, pose, window-shop, and otherwise immerse yourself in the Big Apple’s buzz.
Powder room, comfort station, privy, loo, dunny … the infinite variety of names we invent for this universal necessity, the toilet, is matched by an extraordinary variety of designs worldwide, from miniature log cabins in the Canadian wilderness to state-of-the-art cubicles in Japan, and from huts on stilts in the Caribbean to solar-powered sanitary ware in New Zealand. This amusing but highly informative photographic journey reveals the idiosyncrasy and inventiveness that characterize the construction of the humble toilet around the globe.
Born in Rhodes, Soriano brought an outsider's perspective when he arrived in Los Angeles with little grasp of English in 1924, at the age of 17. After first studying French literature and music, he graduated with an architecture degree from the University of Southern California and thereafter worked in the offices of Rudolph Schindler and Richard Neutra, and for Los Angeles County, finally starting his own practice in Los Angeles in 1936.
