Urban Retreats

For many people, a home in a big city means a refuge from the hectic rhythm and stress that are all part of cosmopolitan life. Whether the featured property is a simply designed loft, a cosily furnished hôtel de maître, a designer flat or a luxurious townhouse, the intention is always to create a unique haven that has been built or adapted to accommodate the lifestyle and character of the owners.

From New York to Geneva, with stops in London, Brussels and elsewhere, this lavishly illustrated
book features extensive reports about the ultimate in city living.
