Wonderfully accessible ideas for maintaining a stylish home, drawing on the ways French mothers and grandmothers manage their households. French houses ooze with charm — and their inhabitants, despite busy schedules, regularly entertain at home. What are the secrets for leading such a chic lifestyle? In this insightful tome, lavishly illustrated with images of a country residence in a romantic French town, de Dampierre shares her knowledge of ways to achieve a warm and inviting home. Her continental traditions make beautifying your house a joy. Household chores — from stocking the pantry to washing and storing delicate linens to cleaning wooden and stone surfaces — are discussed. Tips for adorning your home range from lining dresser drawers with pretty papers and enhancing them with homemade scents to creating delicate floral arrangements of fresh-cut blooms for pleasant accents throughout your rooms. Basic instructions are also provided for designing a simple and attractive aromatic kitchen garden full of herbs, fruit, and vegetables, whether on a plot of land or in attractive containers; its produce then becomes the basis for preparing fresh, seasonal recipes to share with family and friends.

Homes, pool houses, and gardens in paradise by the great architect Marion Sims Wyeth — progenitor of the fabled Palm Beach style and designer of Doris Duke’s legendary Hawaiian retreat, Shangri La — are featured here in the first in-depth book to consider his most alluring creations.

Beauty and elegance mingle with extravagance in the Palm Beach style of architect Marion Sims Wyeth, a kind of home design that takes the standard fixtures of paradise — palm trees, ebullient fountains, glistening pools and gardens, views of the sea — and mixes them with a dash of the exotic — a Moorish-style balcony or doorway, Venetian archways, fanciful courtyards in the Spanish style, and spiraling staircases in stone and iron.

Featured here are the legendary abodes of Marjorie Merriweather Post and Doris Duke — Mar-a-Lago and Shangri La, respectively — as well as the less well known but equally spectacular Hogarcito and La Claridad, to name but a few. For those unfamiliar with these dream palaces, intimate homes of repose and reflection, for the enjoyment of life and the living of it, the book serves at once as a revelation and an inspiration.

Elegant rusticity meets unpretentious luxury in the work of this award-winning architecture firm.

Howard Backen, principal of the architecture firm Backen, Gillam & Kroeger, is at the center of a popular movement in home design that emphasizes elegant simplicity and embraces the rustic charm of natural materials.

This volume, the first on his work and that of the firm, is an artful exploration of this aesthetic, featuring farmhouses in the Napa Valley, hilltop homes, seaside retreats, and lakeside hideaways. Throughout the work, a sense of intimacy, warmth, and informality pervades. Natural materials, such as wood, stone, and brick, form the foundations, walls, and ceilings of these subtly luxurious spaces, while nature itself plays a considered role that is at once complementary and also intricately conjoined with the work.

Sensitive, alluring, and wonderfully resonant with the suggestion of invitation, the work of Backen, Gillam & Kroeger is both thrilling to the eye and restorative to the soul.

Daniel P. Gregory is former senior home editor of Sunset magazine, author of Cliff May and the Modern Ranch House, and editor-in-chief of Houseplans.com.

New challenges on a global scale have forced a rethinking about the way homes and communities are designed. Future Homes provides an engaging and in-depth analysis of possible solutions, providing hope for the future. Broadly speaking these challenges came in three ways: environmental, social, and economic. The challenges posed by climate change demand urgent consideration and response. But a change in methodology and the ingenious employment of technological advances offers solutions to these challenges. This book provides important examples of ways to meet the global challenges by using innovative concepts and practices, leading to a transformation of how residences will appear in the years to come.

With sustainability as an overarching strategy for future retooling and design of our homes, it’s worth taking a look at the new challenges we face and the ways they can be approached by stakeholders such as urban planners, architects, designers, builders, and individuals considering building their own home.

Great Houses of Havana — це чудово ілюстрована презентація найвидатніших резиденцій Гавани, присвячена сторіччю творчості, дизайну та стилю, які зробили місто «Парижем Карибського моря», з повною історичною інформацією про архітекторів, дизайнерів і відомих жителів.

Great Houses of Havana відзначає сторіччя творчості, дизайну та стилю, які зробили місто «Парижем Карибського моря».

Протягом чотирьохсот років Гавана була центром іспанської торгівлі в західній півкулі. З розширенням цукрової промисловості, незалежністю від Іспанії та північноамериканськими інвестиціями Гавана стала містом великого багатства, чудового стилю та чудових будинків у лексиці, яка була унікальною сумішшю європейських, американських та карибських елементів.

Great Houses of Havana простежує еволюцію кубинського будинку від класичного іспанського колоніального будинку з внутрішнім двориком до «тропічних модерністських» вілл 1950-х років - будинків, що відображають міжнародні архітектурні тенденції, залишаючись при цьому вірними кубинським традиціям. Соціальна історія Куби проходить через всю книгу.

Вінтажні фотографії ілюструють вишуканий спосіб життя Гавани – бали-маскаради, пікніки в яхт-клубах і династичні весілля модних кубинців та їхніх іноземних гостей. Популярні кафе, готелі, театри та курорти вихідного дня також представлені, створюючи вид на привілейоване життя в закритих особняках найвеличніших районів міста

An exquisitely photographed collection of the great houses and mansions of the South.

In the tradition of Rizzoli’s Historic Houses of the Hudson Valley and Great Houses of New England, Great Houses of the South features a stunning array of newly photographed homes that range over three centuries and are distinctive examples of the architecture of the region. While in popular imagination the "Southern Style" is embodied in the classic Southern plantation house with its Greek Revival detailing — its stately white columns, wide porch, and symmetrical shape—the houses themselves are much more various and engaging, as shown in this important volume. From stately Stanton Hall of Natchez, Mississippi, one of the most magnificent and palatial residences of antebellum America; to Longue Vue House and Gardens of New Orleans, the luxurious Classical Revival–style home of Edgar and Edith Stern; to the fabled Biltmore of Asheville, North Carolina, the opulent French Renaissance – inspired chateau and Gilded Age estate of George Washington Vanderbilt, this lavish volume is comprehensive in scope and a landmark work of enduring interest to homeowners, architects, architecture historians, and all those who love fine architecture.

Sustainable architecture is one of the most popular trends today. With dense urban living and less green space available, green walls and roofs are helping to fill that gap. These living structures can be created with vegetation, which helps to absorb rainwater, provide insulation, and lower temperatures while creating a habitat for natural flora and fauna.

'Green Walls Green Roofs' features projects from all over the world, showing how these elements work in various climates. Ranging from the tropical houses in Singapore to inner-city buildings in North America, this richly illustrated book will show you how living architecture can enrich our world.

Bestselling author and popular American architect Gil Schafer returns with the final installment in his trilogy on the rewards of living in the American house.

The work of Gil Schafer — one of the world’s leading experts on contemporary traditional architecture — is beloved for its elegance, charm, and strong sense of history and place. Since his last book, Schafer has become a husband and stepfather, a change that has deepened his understanding of how a house must reflect and support the lives of those who live within its walls. Home at Last is a distillation of what he has learned and how he translates it to his work on houses that are adaptive to the evolution of life, depending upon a family’s needs.

The book includes homes he has designed in the mist-covered Hudson Valley, on a bluff above Lake Champlain, on the windswept shores of Block Island, and on the coast of Maine. Schafer shares the stories of these houses and their owners, exploring the choices made for architecture and interiors, and reemphasizing his guiding principles: how to create classical buildings that “live modern”; how to adapt buildings to different regions and ways of life; the connection to landscape; why fancy can coexist with simple, and traditional with modern.  

With original photography by Eric Piasecki, layered with practical takeaways, Home at Last is a tribute to the power of the American house.

About the Author:

Gil Schafer III is a member of Architectural Digest’s AD100, a recipient of the Arthur Ross Award for Architecture, and the author of The Great American House and A Place to Call Home.

Acclaimed photographer Eric Piasecki’s work has appeared in several books.

Highlighting thirty-five spectacular recently completed houses overlooking sea, lake, river, and ocean, selected for beauty and variety across the globe, Houses by the Shore features homes that demonstrate the extraordinarily diverse ways that today's leading architects and interior designers build and design homes on the water and new approaches homeowners are taking to life on the shore.

Frequently elegant and uncluttered, these houses serve as models of smart and often exquisite design with lots of ideas for homeowners who don't necessarily live in a waterfront home, but who wish to have something of that appeal and sensitivity in their own space.
A range of projects encompassing myriad geographic and cultural inspirations show some of the world's most inviting residences, built in stone and glass, in wood and steel and concrete. The houses vary in size and style, though all within the realm of the modern, from open plan homes that include terraces and rooms that flow from indoors to out, to spaces flooded with light and views. Each house is photographed comprehensively with detailed interior and exterior pictures and plans, and placed into context through the lens of widely respected editor Oscar Riera Ojeda and descriptive texts written by design critic Byron Hawes, to give readers a privileged look at the best of shore-side residential architecture.

With its beautiful modernist homes set beside the golden sands of the gulf coast of Mexico or upon the romantic islands of Greece, from Finland to South Africa to New Zealand, Houses by the Shore is a paean to rooms with a view.

Спокуслива, стильна, переконлива та авторитетна збірка авангардних невеликих будинків, які дуже легко ступають у природі, прокладаючи шлях для архітекторів, власників будинків та мрійників до перегляду того, як ми можемо жити, проживати та процвітати.

Архітектори все більше і більше намагаються інтегрувати резиденції у свої місця, щоб мінімально заважати природі, з будинками, які плавають на воді або на деревах. Ця книга розкриває 51 проект, який переносить свої резиденції в природу, навіть дозволяючи природній обстановці проникнути в самі стіни, при цьому пріоритет надається екологічності та вуглецевому сліду.Кожен із домівок у книзі ретельно вибрано завдяки інноваційному та спокусливому дизайну, доступному масштабу та приголомшливому розташуванню, чи то всередині самої землі, чи ширяючи високо серед верхівок дерев, оточені прохолодною водою чи протистоячи спекі пустелі.

Міркування споживання енергії можуть диктувати зелений дах у деяких випадках, тоді як все більш повне змішування з навколишнім середовищем дає задоволення від того, що ви не існуєте в суперечності зі світом, свого роду втечу до оригінального саду, або, точніше, повернення до основних, незаперечних цінностей.

Колекція книги охоплює весь світ — від віддаленої бухти на острові Бруні (Тасманія) до ізольованого пляжу в Нікарагуа чи будиночка, що стоїть над фіордом у Норвегії. Представлено сучасний архітектурний авангард, а також визнані фірми, що працюють на передньому краї дизайну двадцять першого століття, такі як Том Кундіг з Сіетлської практики Olson Kundig і Snøhetta з Осло. Завдяки великій кількості фотографій, що демонструють кожен будинок усередині та зовні, а також планам, Houses Natural/Natural Houses пропонує натхнення — і спокій.

About the Authors:

Courtenay Smith is a freelance curator of contemporary art and design whose international exhibitions include ‘Shanghai Surprise’ and the exhibitions and accompanying books for Lucy Orta: Body Architecture and Xtreme Houses. She has held numerous curatorial positions in museums and galleries in the United States and Germany. Sean Topham has contributed to various publications, exhibitions and seminars and has written on design for magazines and newspapers including The New York Times, Dwell, the Independent, the Guardian and Icon.

Following up on their much-heralded first volume of interiors, this new publication presents the next evolution of Atelier AM-virtuosos of mixing antiques and museum-quality artworks with pedigreed design.

"Alexandra and Michael Misczynski, the wife-and-husband team behind the Los Angeles-based AD100 design firm Atelier AM, are standard-bearers for the...concepts of quality and connoisseurship. In an image-driven culture, where novelty and extravagance so often masquerade as virtues, the Misczynskis remain steadfast in their belief that true style can emerge only from substance." -- Architectural Digest
Atelier AM has been the go-to designers for true connoisseurs since they opened their office in 2002. Taking on very few projects each year, each Atelier AM home is a complete masterwork--where design and art are fully integrated into the architecture and landscape for a rich and immersive experience.

Eight new homes are featured in this new volume, and each features Atelier AM's signature reverence for patina mixed with the new: reclaimed wood beams and well-loved vintage modern furniture pieces mingles comfortably with century-old artifacts and antiques. The projects in this volume show a deep understanding of design history -- from Spanish Colonial and English Classicism to contemporary. The mix of modern and ancient acknowledges and celebrates both the past and the future of design. With photography by their long-term collaborator Francois Halard, and insightful texts by Mayer Rus, Houses: Atelier AM promises to be as rich and satisfying as an Atelier AM home itself.

About the Author:
