Итоговый результат работы архитектора не всегда зависит только от его таланта. Слишком много факторов должно совпасть, чтобы реализация была хотя бы вполовину так хороша, как проект. Однако удивительные интерьеры Бориса Уборевича-Боровского - вовсе не результат совпадения. Его стиль, выработанный за последние два десятилетия, вполне узнаваем: это чистейший, отточенный минимализм. Именно поэтому к интерьерам, созданным Уборевичем, стоит подходить с мерками не дизайна, а архитектуры внутреннего пространства: когда в доме все на своем месте, нет нужды прятать ошибки за декорациями. Многие более или менее успешно пытаются повторить его работы или сделать дизайн "под Уборевича". Казалось бы, что тут сложного - белые стены, деревянные полы? Но пока никому не удалось раскрыть секрет его успеха. Возможно, читатель этой книги сумеет приблизиться к разгадке. Нужно всего лишь, пройдя по следам Бориса Уборевича-Боровского, найти нужное соотношение между щедростью и самоограничением, роскошью и аскетизмом, тяжелейшим трудом проектировщика и свободным полетом фантазии художника. Внимательный - увидит.

This book aims to be a portfolio of ideas that showcases houses from all over the world, designed by contemporary, international architects and interior designers.

Each project uses specific materials or concepts that stand out from the rest of its design. Throughout this book, we feature houses made of concrete, stone, brick, metal, wood and lightweight or recycled materials, which have become the hallmark of the project. Sometimes this choice of material was based on the geographic region and climate: wood plus insulation are used more often in colder climates, while tile, concrete and stone are more commonly used in warmer climates. Furthermore, the illustrations are accompanied by practical interior design tips that will help readers create their own style and personality.

For many, the idea of prefab housing may bring to mind trailers and other less desirable images of home life. But this idea couldn't be more wrong! Rather, the newest trends in prefab have emerged as a great way for a design- (and cost-) conscious generation to achieve the dream of homeownership. Today, prefab houses are manufactured to the highest standards of construction and aesthetics. And with the internet, these houses can be ordered from all over the world -- affording people everywhere the opportunity to acquire an affordable home of distinction.

Prefab Modern explores the best-prefabricated houses on the market today, from all over the world along with a resource directory on how you can purchase them. Included are case studies from all over the US and around the world, from top architects and designers.

Prefabulous and Sustainable dispels the negative myths associated with prefab homes and shows the reader how beautiful and remarkably green prefab homes are.

In this guide to prefab home-building author Sheri Koones, demystifies the prefabricated house by using 25 unique homes to showcase how factory-built homes are greener, more efficient, sturdier, and more cost-effective than site-built homes. The book is divided into 3 categories - green, greener, greenest - and the homes featured vary in style, design, type of construction, and size. All of the homes included in Prefabulous and Sustainable have been customized to create a level of sustainability beyond the inherent qualities of prefab.

Written in an easy to understand and approachable style, author Sheri Koones walks the readers through each of the homes, explaining the materials, strategies, and systems used to create a sustainable living environment. Photographs, captions, floor plans, and sidebars illustrate to readers that green living is not as complicated as one might think, and attainable for everyone. Also included is a resource guide, making this book a hand-on guide for homebuilders.

The rising cost of fuel and the growing commit­ment to protect the environment have sparked exciting innovations in prefab home construction. Showcasing the unlimited possibilities offered by prefabrication to build incredibly energy-efficient, green homes, Prefabulous World features sophisticated examples of eco-friendly home design in Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Canada, the United States, England, Germany, South Africa, and beyond. With floor plans, multiple images of the exterior and interior of each home, and an extensive resource section listing architects, builders, and suppliers, this book is a vibrantly illustrated yet practical guide that reveals how living in a beautiful, well-built, energy-efficient home is achievable for us all.

• Twenty-six innovative projects

Preschools and Kindergartens showcases twenty-six successful projects from around the world. Innovative architectural practices are spotlighted, with an emphasis on safety (nontoxic finishes, hidden electrical outlets) and on environmental conservation, including solar panels, tanks for rainwater collection, and recycling facilities. Preschools and Kindergartens is an education in designing for the very young.

Pastels are enjoying an exciting comeback. Forget the sugary pinks of little girls’ bedrooms, today, pastels pack plenty of personality. The best of the bunch have a rich intensity or a subtle sophistication, keeping them the cool side of sweet. They allow you to fill your home with color, without splashing statement brights around, and they bring a warmth and softness to a room.

In Pretty Pastel Style, stylist Selina Lake shows you how to use this truly versatile color palette to create beautiful spaces that are feminine without being girlie; color-rich without being garish. The book first walks you through the Elements of the look. Modern Pastels are contrasted with pops of stronger shades and sharpened with statement furniture. Vintage Pastels plunder the past, taking from it smoky pinks, faded greens, and elegant patterns. Retro Pastels cheerfully channel the ice-cream shades of the Fifties on candy stripes, polka dots, and cute floral prints, while Simple Pastels works with off-whites for an elegantly minimal take on Pretty Pastel Style. Next, Details looks at everything from furniture and lighting, to display and decoration, with inspiring ideas on how to piece the style together. Finally, head to the Spaces section of the book to see beautiful rooms that have used pastels with super-stylish effect.

• An easy-to-achieve, beautiful look for anyone who loves this soft, pretty style.

Past centuries have seen well-to-do citizens and other dignitaries commission prestigious private mansions in large cities, often built along tree-lined boulevards.

From the nineteenth century, many avenues were built as a perfectly straight, broad axis between stately mansions with classic façades, in line with the architectural model that had been introduced by Haussmann in Paris.

Behind these façades very opulent décor was often concealed, with features such as monumental marble fireplaces, oak parquet, natural-stone floors and ornamented stuccowork.

In the twenty-first century, these exclusive mansions are a valuable testament to our rich architectural history.

However, the accounts in this book also demonstrate that these mansions have lost none of their relevance in the modern world: contemporary architects and interior specialists are restoring these houses in a way that is full of respect for the authentic architectural elements, but makes the necessary concessions to the modern way of life. This leads to a constant and fascinating interaction between old and new.

By definition, home is a place to share, bet that with family or friends. Yet however gregarious our lifestyles, we all need solitary spaces away to work, relax or unwind after the stresses of the day and Private Places is the book that allows you to create these areas. Part one of the book looks at transforming traditional rooms through furnishing and layout. Part two shows how to carve out quiet spots from unseen places such as corridors or landings. The final part looks at more radical options for finding peace outdoors such as garden gazebos or balconies.

The book is packed with evocative pictures and practical advice and shows us how to create private places within our home, however hectic our pace of life.

Ольга Арапова окончила Нижегородский государственный архитектурно-строительный университет и аспирантуру Московского архитектурного института. Несмотря на полученное образование, в ее реальной практике профессия отошла на второй план, а любимым делом стало изобразительное искусство. Тогда, в конце 80-х – начале 90-х, архитектурная практика казалась бестолковой тратой времени, совсем не то, что живопись, где ты принадлежишь только себе и можешь сам придумывать правила игры. Так увлечение стало любимым делом, а преподавание – необходимым минимумом для выработки собственных методов и приемов. Появились крупные заказы, среди которых – комплект декоративного панно для закрытого мужского клуба, занавес театра кукол в Екатеринбурге и другие, они же привели автора в интерьеры. И сегодня имя Ольги Араповой, ассоциируется, в первую очередь, с дизайном интерьеров. Полученная практика не прошла даром, а напротив, помогла сформировать свой авторский почерк. Профессия архитектора позволяет Араповой «чувствовать» пространство и удачно выстраивать задуманную композицию, а талант художника – безошибочно задавать образ, подбирать цветовую гамму и элементы аранжировки. Все ее интерьеры, что называется, «с характером». В своих самых оригинальных проектах автор утверждает контент как авангардную интерактивную инсталляцию. Монография открывает новую серию издательства TATLIN, посвященную деятельности российских дизайнеров интерьера. Каждая монография представляет от 5 до 10 реализованных проектов интерьеров частного и общественного характера

Светлана Байдюк из тех влюбленных в свою профессию дизайнеров, которые стараются во всем принимать живое участие – в разработке эскизов, рабочих чертежей, от рождения идеи проекта до ее воплощения. После сделанных Светланой эскизов картина нового интерьера предстает во всех красках. Дизайнер любит видеть все в мельчайших подробностях, говорит, что проект может родиться всего от одной детали. За годы практики приходилось работать в разных стилях, но самым актуальным для себя и востребованным для других считает ар-деко. Вопреки массовому увлечению брендами дизайнер держит дистанцию с пафосными, но мало функциональными вещами, делая выбор в пользу авангардных идей, качественных и интересных новинок, способных доставить комфорт и долго служить своим владельцам. Начав практику в качестве дизайнера интерьера с 1997 года в Екатеринбурге, сегодня автор имеет собственную студию Baydyuk Design Company в Чехии. Избегать сложных технических и художественных задач не в правилах автора – дело не только в смелости, в нем горит творческий азарт к работе с многообразием материалов и фактур. Выкладывая «по кусочкам» целые дома, Светлана не гонится за количеством, предпочитая качество, хотя имеет в своем портфолио более 40 реализованных интерьеров. В данную монографию вошли лишь пять из них.
