A guide to the architecture and design of luxurious day and hotel spas worldwide

The number of visitors to day, destination, and hotel spas has doubled in the last five years. The increasing understanding of the importance of health and well-being combined with the emphasis on beauty in our society has inspired the creation of amazing spaces for relaxation and pampering at day spas—both independent of and affiliated with chic hotels.

A more flexible lifestyle, increasing rents an a greater number of single-person homes have all meant that apartments, especially in big cities, have been reduced to a single room. This does not necessarily have to be a disadvantage however. The use of space can be optimised with an intelligent design; minimalist amenities, made-to-measure furniture and predominantly light colours are three basic ingredients of any studio flat, where the premise is to do without all that is superfluous. This book presents 21 projects of spacesaving, contemporary and urban design to show, how trendy and functional a room can be furnished.

Supermarkets are changing. Gone are the days of boxy, frozen warehouses stacked high with package goods. Today's supermarkets can be inviting or theatrical, artfully urban or charmingly rural. An informative guide to the fast-changing world of modern supermarket architecture, New Supermarket Design is a sumptuous, visual tour of the most groundbreaking innovations in the field.

From the American Midwest to the streets of Tokyo, this beautiful book collects 40 of the most revolutionary ideas in store design, product arrangement, and thematic conception. New Supermarket Design features work from some of the most renowned architects on the international scene, clearly explained and accompanied by stunning full-color illustrations.

Tents have been prized for centuries for their lightness, mobility, small footprint and structural elegance. New tents offer innovative and significant solutions to age-old problems. With the demand on architects to touch the earth lightly, together with a cross-disciplinary interest in technotextiles, membrane structures are assuming new prominence and pleasing forms.

This wide-ranging international survey looks at the exciting possibilities of contemporary tensile building and the most interesting membrane structures created in recent years.

Includes:
• Architectural and cultural history of the tent
• Thirty recent projects grouped by theme, such as atrium covers and fabric walls, ring roofs and convertibles, small peaks, large waves
• Accessible text descriptions, photographs and line drawings.

As a filter that smoothly merges interior and exterior, terraces have become one of the most important complemantary spaces in today's contemporary house. Whether cantilevered, open or covered, as a wide extension of the ground floor or as roof gardens in residential buildings, terraces maximise the sense of space by partially seizing outdoor areas. This book is a showcase of the multiple design possibilities offered by these privileged spaces; an entertaining, social and contemplative place that improves the quality of life in every home.

In the wide field of design, the designing of textiles is regarded as a special discipline. It requires a deeper understanding of the technical side of the production of textiles as well as a specific knowledge of each fabric, of its uses, its properties and characteristics (dyes, fibres and colourings). “New Textile Design” covers the many and various forms of the discipline. It includes clothing, caps, shoes, scarves, bags and appliqués, bedclothes, upholstery and lampshades. Even textile trinkets and other accessories are featured on the following pages.

The collected designs range from central motifs (on t-shirts, for instance) to patterns which often have to compete with the visible structures of the fabric. Additionally, the very form and manner of the presentation can become an interesting part of the work. Thus, we've included everything from sketches to elaborately staged photos.

Motives, patterns, textures - “New Textile Design” covers the whole range of soft goods.
