Doors and windows are distinctive elements of a building’s style. They define a building’s appearance, as well as playing a crucial role in ventilation, lighting, and insulation. This comprehensive round-up features the many door and window types available today, including the most recent technical advances and design trends, with a focus on innovative materials, styles and shapes. Showcasing a multitude of design challenges and solutions, this volume is an invaluable reference and inspiration for the architect, homeowner, or interior decorator.

For anyone interested in architecture, history, travel or world cultures, doors have a special fascination. In addition to welcoming guests and keeping out intruders, a door creates the first impression of a building and provides a sense of welcome, security and peace.

This fascinating book contains more than 500 photographs of doors from around the world. There are doors made of wood, metal and glass, doors old and new, and doors polished and weathered. Some were made to impress and to show off the majesty and importance of the building they serve, and some were hastily constructed as simply as possible and with whatever materials were at hand. They come from, and evoke, many cultures and traditions.

This wide-ranging and delightful collection provides a wealth of ideas and inspiration for anyone interested in architecture, construction, design or decorative arts.

Aimed clearly at designers, this book covers all stages of visual presentation in interior design, from early concept sketches and more evolved technical drawings to complex computer renderings, models for client presentation and production drawings for contractors.

Step-by-step sequences and special tips show students how to make the most of the available media, while practical advice on everything from communicating with clients and contractors to the legal implications of production drawings are covered. A comprehensive and varied selection of drawings from practitioners and student designers will whet readers' appetites, encourage enthusiasm and suggest possibilities.

This book will be an invaluable, inspirational and practical resource for interior design and interior architecture students and practising interior designers alike.
