Following the success of the first volume in this series, Making More of Small Spaces introduces a new collection of remarkable homes. Modern houses discreetly tucked into Victorian terraces, deceptively spacious apartments layered into dense developments and renovated light-filled cottages are just some of the latest small-space designs to feature in this book. These small spaces highlight the myriad ways in which living space, no matter how limited, can be skilfully reworked into unusual but practical homes. Text by Stephen Crafti, a well-known freelance writer who has been published extensively in magazines and newspapers both locally and internationally.

With a move to smaller and more flexible living spaces, architects and designers are pushing the parameters of available space. For example, in a bed-sit the lounge might become the bedroom at night, with the kitchen taking shape only when the need arises. This book visits a number of extraordinary homes, from apartments to townhouses. It is testament to the fact that what small spaces may lack in size, they certainly make up for through creative design ideas. It features everything from lofts nestled into warehouse spaces to townhouses hidden in laneways and the localities are often as intriguing as the spaces themselves. Text by Stephen Crafti, a well-known freelance writer who has been published extensively in magazines and newspapers both locally and internationally.

Because of the increasing requirements of multimedia the demands placed on libraries have grown enormously in the past decade The institution went through a true image transformation, from an introverted hoard of knowledge to a globally networked information vendor and communication broker. The architectural realization of this anticipated demand profile makes for an extremely complex and simultaneously exciting building task.

Whether new buildings, conversions or extensions, this title shows the diversity of this task with the requirements of cutting-edge technology and cultural demands at the same time. With the aid of texts, photos and plans, 69 projects are presented from around the world.

This publication demonstrates what effect high-qualtity and mordern architecture has on hospitals, doctor's offices, pharmacies and other health institutions, and what the future-oriented tendencies are for health sector buildings. The book offers a qualified selection of more than 60 projects around the world. Using photos, diagrams and floor plans, it illustrates the significance that a humanitarian architectural language will have in the modern and ever-changing health field.

The shapes, colors, imagination, graphic patterns, and free-spirited effervescence of a legendary design movement. Step inside the homes, studios, and hotels of the postmodernism-loving collective, from original Memphis day interiors to modern ’80s-influenced schemes

Pump up the postmodernism! Curious ceramic objects, wildly patterned fabrics, and anthropomorphic lamps: Instantly recognizable and never, ever boring, Memphis is one of the most important design movements of the 20th century. Founded by Italian architect and designer Ettore Sottsass, the Memphis Group put forward a visionary new approach to design, that rebelled against the rules of functionalism, defining the ’80s with its radical combinations of shapes, materials, and patterns. Serving up kooky design that’s eclectic yet tightly curated, the Memphis look is exuberant, outrageous, and entertaining. Who doesn’t want a bit of that?

Spanning the worlds of interiors, furniture, fashion, and graphics, this new design book explores how the rule-breaking Memphis aesthetic continues to shape the modern creative scene. It started with Millennial Pink. Now the sweet shop colors, terrazzo floors, and curved cartoon shapes have been given a black outline and made graphic and cool.

In More is More, author and design journalist Claire Bingham curates iconic Memphis designs and interiors alongside contemporary projects steeped in the effervescent Memphis mood. Step inside stunning, postmodernism-loving homes, studios, and hotels, capturing the Memphis spirit with their hello-there hues, vive la différence mindset, and flamboyant creativity — all hopefully, in the teeth of good taste. And along the way, hear from fashion-forward creatives embracing the Memphis look, as well as from Memphis Group founding members Peter Shire and George Sowden who talk about Memphis’s beginnings, its legacy today and how the ’80s vibe has impacted their life and work. For both the leaders and followers of the New Wave, Memphis is more than a style. It’s an attitude.

Claire Bingham revisits the period’s free-thinking mind-set and whisks us away on a crazy and colorful journey: in exciting essays, interviews, and stories about home decor, artists and designers from around the world share how Memphis continues to inspire and enrich their work.

Includes interviews with fashion-forward creatives such as Camille Walala and Bethan Laura Wood.

The entrance to a house acts as its visiting card. Its conception has changed enormously over the years, as has its social uses, and the space that was once considered indispensable for receiving guests and keeping the house away form view on first contact - whether out of a desire to preserve privacy or a belief that it was bad taste to put living space on display - has changed to such an extent that it is on the verge of disappearing from many homes. In fact, in many cases the entrance is the axis around which the space will be used to greater advantage and the layout of the various areas will follow a logical order; in contrast, a misguided placement results in an erroneous starting point for a residential project. So, we are devoting these 192 pages to solutions for entrances, of various shapes and styles, belonging to different types of homes from all over the world, drawn up by a wide range of architects.

280 color illustrations, 205 B/W plans & drawings

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.

Architecture dedicated to the tertiary sector is one of the major topics of the present time. The application of new computer technologies involves a revolution in the approach to work, which in turn involves a revolution in distribution and materials. A more pleasant and friendlier working environment is being created through the application of criteria of intelligent construction, ergonomics, new air conditioning systems, new cladding methods, ecological efficiency, health concerns, and control of light intensity according to the need of each area.
