RENOVATING FOR LIVING
Sometimes restoring a building is more complicated than constructing a new one, not simply because of the historical value of the part which is to be preserved, but also bearing in mind the state of the structure is often not known before the project gets underway. This makes these commissions a real challenge as the architect must put into practice very different strategies to those deployed on a new-build, often resulting in a very satisfying experience.This book presents 28 case studies of sensitive conversions, including work from Enric Miralles, Jo Crepain and Greg Gong.
HOUSES OF ASIA
As Asian cities become more densely populated, dwelling spaces become increasingly smaller and, in some cities an entire apartment may be the size of a single room. The homes featured in this artfully photographed volume may be restricted in square footage, but unlimited in terms of innovation. One apartment, for example, features an efficient arrangement of kitchenette, bathroom, and laundry areas in a space dominated by white, transparent materials for an airy effect.
