Adventure through the princely Thurn und Taxis estate, an enchanted palace where 1,000 years of history meets a thoroughly modern family. For 200 years the Thurn und Taxis family have called the palace of St. Emmeram home. Regarded as one of Germany’s finest examples of historicist architecture, the Regensburg residence’s myriad rooms trace centuries of distinctive styles: a Romanesque-Gothic cloister built between the twelfth and fourteenth centuries, a neo-Renaissance marble staircase, a number of Rococo and neo-Rococo staterooms, and a Baroque library frescoed in 1737. Celebrated photographer Todd Eberle captures the confluence of high art and grand architecture within the 500-room palace to reveal the curious tale of the Thurn und Taxis family. Complete with stately portraits and scenes of life at St. Emmeram, this monograph offers a glimpse into the world and glamour of one of the most important dynasties of the European aristocracy.

Jump into the cold water, right off the front porch, for an early swim; take hot coffee alfresco in a rooftop deck chair as the sunrise lights a panorama of sea birds and skyline; then, kayak off to a meeting downtown. Live on a houseboat and you see wildlife and city life converge to make every day feel like vacation. That's what they say. Thousands of permanent water citizens-ranging from young tycoons to elder hippies-have rejected big houses, chattel, and land for the rich neighborhood life of dense residential marinas. This isn't a lifestyle look, it's the real thing. Adventurous living: independent, expressive, and fun. The most comprehensive book on the floating dwellings of North America, The Houseboat Book reveals intriguing villages (floating on century-old cedar logs, concrete barges, Styrofoam blocks, plastic barrels, fiberglass, and painted wood) in British Columbia, Canada, and in Washington, Oregon, California, Florida, New York, and New Jersey. One sees wonderfully inventive architecture-a thatched cabana in paradisiacal Key West, a barged train car (as family home/circus stage) in industrial Brooklyn-imaginative design at its best.

Practising from the turn of the twentieth century to the beginning of the Second World War, Mackay Hugh Baillie Scott exerted a profound influence on English Arts and Crafts architecture and design as well as on the nascent modernist movement.

As a leader of the Arts and Crafts movement in Britain, Baillie Scott adhered to the philosophy that good design should be made available to everyone and should extend from the planning of towns to the creation of dishes and doorknobs. Baillie Scott maintained a characteristically English dedication to the domestic landscape, designing houses and gardens whose exterior forms and interior details were rooted in a romantic vision of vernacular construction and craftsmanship. But his spatial planning signalled a revolution in the organization of interior space, with the development of the open plan - and the introduction of the demotic, modern living room - around the same time that Frank Lloyd Wright was engaging in similar experiments across the Atlantic.

Photographer Ian Macdonald-Smith has captured thirty of the most characteristically innovative and charming extant houses designed by Baillie Scott, as well as their delightful gardens, in spectacular full-colour photographs taken for this book that expresses the vibrant craftsmanship and prescient planning of this early-twentieth-century master.

One hundred of the most important and influential architect-designed houses in the world.

With seminal works from such icons as Le Corbusier, Frank Lloyd Wright and Mies van der Rohe, as well as modern-day greats including Tadao Ando, Rem Koolhaas and Herzog & de Meuron, this book presents a stunning array of the past century’s architectural masterpieces.

International in scope and wide-ranging in style, the houses share a remarkable sensitivity to site and context, appreciation of materials and local building traditions, and careful integration of clients’ needs. Each, however, has a unique approach that makes it groundbreaking and radical for its time.

Every house has a history, and this book tells the often intimate stories of these remarkable buildings and their architects and clients. Concise, informative texts and fresh, vibrant illustrations, including specially commissioned photographs and a wealth of floor plans and drawings, offer detailed documentation, while a bibliography, gazetteer and list of houses by type offer further information.

Whether Arts and Crafts or Art Nouveau, Modernist or Minimalist, High-Tech or vernacular, these iconic buildings from around the world and across the decades will inspire and delight students and professionals, design aficionados and anyone who dreams of building a house of their own some day.

About the Authors

Desmond FitzGerald, Knight of Glin, is president of the Irish Georgian Society and a governor of the National Gallery of Ireland. He has written numerous books on Irish art, furniture, and architecture.

James Peill is the curator of Goodwood House in West Sussex, England. He was formerly a vice president of Christie’s, where he was a specialist in the European furniture department.

James Fennell’s photographs have been published in Condé Nast Traveler, World of Interiors, and Architectural Digest.

It chronicles a remarkable group of houses and castles that have survived the vicissitudes of Ireland’s history and are still in the hands of their original families, taking the reader on an intimate tour of these wonderful homes.

The houses are not the instant creation of trendy decorators – they have evolved over generations, furnished with heirlooms and cherished hand-me-downs, and exuding the unmistakeable scent of peat fires.

Evocative, specially commissioned photographs show inviting living rooms and tousled bedrooms, print-lined hallways and well-trampled mudrooms. Details capture the distinctive personalities of the owners: a red silk bell-pull against green floral wallpaper, a drawer full of two-hundred-year-old love letters, the curve of a wonderfully carved antique chair.

In their delightful text, the Knight of Glin and James Peill tell the tales of some of the more colourful inhabitants of these homes, past and present.

Phoebe Howard's penchant for creating stylish spaces has evolved into her own brand of decorating. Known for her fresh take on traditional style, Mrs. Howard continually strives to keep it pretty.

These are words used to describe Mrs. Howard's style of decorating and also illustrate the many different ways she strives to make her houses look and feel.

This beautiful book, in both package and content, will appeal to the design conscious and individuals with a flair for the pretty.

Whether homeowner or tenant, our homes are one of our most significant emotional assets. They can define our quality of life, protecting and comforting, inspiring and motivating, but only if our homes are a liberating expression of who we are and an effective tool in how we want to live. In "The Joy of Home", interior designer, Naomi Cleaver, guides you through everything it takes to design the perfect home for you, from revealing your unique 'creative DNA' to common sense practicalities. Naomi reveals insider information on visualisation, space planning, the mechanics of heating and ventilation and what 'green' really means. When it comes to implementation, whether major construction or a simple craft project, Naomi explains, based on years of personal and professional experience, how to get the results you want. Written in the same easy-to-follow narrative of a much-loved cook book, and packed with inspiring ideas and seductive imagery, "The Joy of Home" is an essential reference book in any home transformation project, illustrating how to design a home to reflect your heart's desire.

Kitchens have been transformed from a purely utilitarian workspace to a culinary-family-friends mecca where everyone congregates. While kitchens in condos and small houses may still be limited in square footage, even a tiny galley-style space is often now open to living and dining areas in loft-style arrangement for better camaraderie and conversation.

Divided into two sections, this book will guide you through the process of designing the perfect kitchen. The first section takes you through a step-by-step approach to kitchen design and renovation, complete with questions to ask contractors, layout suggestions and checklists. Followed by a selection of inspiring kitchens, highlighting different options and styles to help you create your ideal space, The Kitchen Bible is an invaluable tool to help you design a culinary space that inspires and delights.

This work is devoted to one of the home's most essential spaces: the kitchen. With over 600 photographs, the book offers an extensive selection of the best kitchens with examples of different styles chosen for their size and layout: XXS, Medium, Open & View, Eat-in and XXL. Each chapter, in addition to the inspiring photos, includes a range of products related to each of the five styles, with information on leading brands and manufacturers of kitchens and accessories.
