Around the turn of the 20th century it became fashionable for homes to include decorative panels of stained glass in their windows and doors. They ranged from small eyelid windows or transoms over a doorway to massive walls of double-hung windows. In any size they introduced a warm glow of color to the interiors and an artistic flare to the architecture.
Today stained glass is being rediscovered. Antique windows and doors are sought after by collectors and decorators, and contemporary glass artists are reviving the craft. This book demonstrates the wide range of glass that is available in the market. For the artisan it gives a context to their work and provides them with ideas and techniques to expand their repertoire.
Over 500 color pictures show the artistry and craftsmanship of antique windows and doors from England, Europe and the United States, and make this an invaluable resource for designers, architects, home restorers and collectors alike.
Dimensions and information about the historical context and the artists who produced the glass are provided, along with current prices
During the last thirty years, a great many projects have been created in stained glass all over the world, in both new buildings and historical churches and institutions. Studies of this phenomenon have been rare until now, and this book is a pioneer in the survey of this fascinating field.
From the magnificent Art Nouveau ceilings of Parisian department stores, to exuberant designs from the Islamic world, and further still to the temples and palaces of India, Indonesia and Japan, stained glass becomes a medium by which the traditional and the avant-garde come together to create sumptuous decoration.
Here too are striking designs by modern artists like Marc Chagall and Fernand Léger, and glass put to skilful and subtle use by master architects such as Antoni Gaudí and Frank Lloyd Wright.
Stair Design brings together more than seventy recent projects from all over the world, which respond to highly diverse needs: from just a few steps compensating the changing level in a loft, to never-ending staircases that rise up the facade of a skyscraper. Included in each section and classified according to their public or private use are numerous examples of stairs built from the most commonly used materials; wood, metal, re-enforced concrete and glass, or a combination of these, often used to maximize the design's efficiency.
A swell as the wide-ranging sample of typologies and materials, Stair Design offers a selection of creative solutions for elements such as banisters or lighting, which are fundamental as the steps themselves.
Конечно они удовлетворяют цели - но сегодня в зданиях лестницы также стали почти скульптурным элементом. Staircases Selection and Details предлагает полный обзор лестниц, с сотнями замечательных примеров, показанных в полном цвете. Садержащая информацию относительно ширины, высоты, и формы шагов, структурных систем, перил, пропорций, и материалов, плюс планы, таблицы и диаграммы, эта книга представляет собой полный технический и творческий справочник-путеводитель по созданию лестниц, которые будут как функциональны так и красивы.
This volume comprises a complete study of stairs, from technical specifications to project realisation. Besides fulfilling their traditional function of enabling height alteration, stairs have become an almost sculptural element in building and the book reflects this with its varied examples, drawing on the work of established architects and that of innovative young masters in the field.
The most interesting solutions in this fascinating area of architecture are explained: details of the width and height and shape of steps, their structural systems, banisters, proportions, alternative types and more. Illustrated with hundreds of full-colour photographs, plans, tables and specific diagrams, this book is specifically designed to be a valuable source of technical and inspirational information.
Stairways tend to be loaded with symbolism, and the fact they are seen as a secondary element as well as a necessary one should not interfere with the fact that they are elements which can display somewhat more than the simple functional mechanism that is inherent to their use. They should represent an expression of the dialogue established between adjoining spaces and strengthen the concept of a transition element that either stands out for being different or blends in for being the same.

Steel is one of the most versatile materials available in the construction industry and its many applications have enabled architects and engineers to go far beyond what was once considered possible. The second volume in this new series documents all aspects of steel as a construction material. Just like the Glass Construction Manual, this volume first looks at the historical development of building with steel. This is followed by several chapters which examine to a high degree of technical detail the physical properties of the material, the principles of construction using steel and the wide spectrum of the use of steel elements. The final chapter presents 54 examples which illustrate the many applications of steel in construction-from simple halls to complex multistorey buildings. These examples were selected because of their innovative use of steel, demonstrating its great potential for minimising the necessary materials and montage. For ease of comparison all the plans have been drawn to the same scale. The volume concludes with an extensive bibliography and a listing of the relevant norms and regulations, making this work an indispensable reference for all architects and engineers.
An essential book for any textile artist looking to expand their repertoire into two- and three-dimensional work. Leading textile artist, teacher and examiner Jean Draper takes you through the entire process from designing through construction to embellishment with mixed media.
This beautiful but very practical book includes diagrams, detailed drawings and stitch information to guide the reader through the techniques, which include hand and machine embroidery. It covers Design, including recording information for translation into stitch (with lots of drawing tips); Choice of Threads, including some unusual threads and costumizing them; Constructing with Thread, everything from knotted forms, with decorative threads, grids and stacks, and coiled structures; Stitches in Thin Air, constructing with stitch alone using moulds and soluble fabric; Using Mixed Media in Stitched Structures, such as paper, sticks, wire and plastics; Adding Structure to an Existing Fabric; Three- Dimensional Fabric Structures.
Working in two and three-dimensions is a growing genre of textile art and this incorporates a fresh approach and great design advice.
There's nothing quite as functional - or as beautiful - as nature's own building blocks. Often shaped and weathered by natural forces, each stone has its own unique look and feel.

Creating sturdy walls, private patios, graceful gardens, and offering unlimited opportunities for your imagination to soar - with features like ponds, streams and waterfalls that can transform your property into a sylvan sanctuary.

Owning your own swimming pool is a dream that is coming for true for more and more people. So, for the first time in this series of lifestyle books, we are devoting a volume to swimming pools and everything related to the subject: pool houses, bathing spaces, saunas and hammams, and also garden designs, materials used for cladding the pool, terraces, furniture and so on.
This book is divided into three chapters.
The first section concentrates on outdoor swimming pools and pool houses. A great deal of attention is paid to the harmonious integration with the garden and surrounding landscape, so this section features garden designers and landscape architects as well as builders of swimming pools.
Part II is devoted to indoor swimming pools. The greatest challenge here is the architecture of the house and the swimming-pool area itself. There is also a strong focus on the finishing of the walls, floors and the materials used to build the pool.
Finally, the third section deals with spaces that have increasingly become a natural extension of the (indoor) swimming pool in our modern lifestyle culture, such as bathing spaces, saunas and hammams and cold-water baths. A large number of inspiring creations are featured, comprehensively illustrating modern trends.
