Вичерпний огляд найкращих зразків житлової архітектури Британії з 1900 року до сьогодення, що представляє провідних архітекторів 20-го століття та провідних молодих талантів.

В останні роки спостерігається відродження інтересу до архітектурної історії та спадщини Британії. Це було зумовлено багатьма важливими політичними, культурними та соціальними факторами, а також потужним та відновленим інтересом до дизайну будинків та побуту.

The Iconic British House досліджує та відзначає п'ятдесят найвизначніших з архітектурної точки зору будинків з 1900 року до сьогодення. Охоплюючи основні мистецькі напрямки, такі як мистецтво та ремесла, ар-деко, модернізм та постмодернізм, будинки включають приклади, спроектовані архітекторами Чарльзом Ренні Макінтошем, Едвіном Лютієнсом, Бертольдом Любеткіним, Річардом Роджерсом та багатьма іншими. Інновації та уява 21-го століття свідчать про будинки відомих та молодих талантів, таких як Сет Стайн, Нік Елдрідж, Робін Партінгтон та Кен Шаттлворт.

Цей багато ілюстрований огляд — це набагато більше, ніж просто оспівування впливових будинків, а також вичерпний путівник по мінливих архітектурних рухах та ідеях, огляд видатних архітекторів міжнародного значення та подорож крізь мінливі смаки, стилі, естетику та моделі життя.

Nine recent projects by renowned architect John Ike

A signature shingled house in a New York suburb, a renovated mid-century modern house in San Diego, a glass-and-brick house near Seattle, a beach house on the Atlantic coast, a reimagined historic building in Brooklin, Maine — the projects featured in this book vary widely in style, location, and materials, but all share a common sensibility. For John Ike, partner at Ike Baker Velten and formerly a founding partner of the award-winning firm Ike Kligerman Barkley, they are all vehicles illustrating the myriad ways architecture is created. His involvement in them ranges from mentor to principal architect and designer, but all are collaborations, and in each chapter he focuses attention on a person who was particularly instrumental in realizing the project, whether the interior designer, the landscape architect, the contractor, a craftsperson, or the client. With an authoritative text by seasoned architecture and design writer Mitchell Owens and specially commissioned photography, John Ike: 9 Houses, 9 Stories explores and celebrates the inextricable bond between the architect and those who implement his vision, a give-and-take that results in singularly designed residences.

About the Authors:

John Ike has been practicing architecture and design for more than four decades. He travels widely, and his aesthetic is influenced by the architectural traditions and regional inflections of the places he visits, particularly Italy, Scandinavia, Mexico, and northern Canada. In 1989, following a formative stint in the office of Robert A. M. Stern, with whom he had studied for his Master of Architecture degree at the Graduate School of Architecture at Columbia University, he co-founded Ike Kligerman Barkley. During his thirty-three years with Ike Kligerman Barkley, the firm published two books, Ike Kligerman Barkley: Houses and The New Shingled House. It received numerous awards, including the AIA New York Chapter Award, the DDB Stars of Design Award, the ICAA Julia Morgan Award, and the ICAA Stanford White Award, and it was named to the AD100 and the Elle Decor A-List. In 2023, Ike co-founded his new firm, Ike Baker Velten. As a designer, he has collaborated on the glass furniture line Chroma D with photographer Irene Mamiye. A father of three and an avid hunter and fisherman, Ike spends his spare time working on his mid-century modern residences in New Jersey and San Diego and his loft in Oddfellows Hall, a historic 19th-century ceremonial lodge in Brooklin, Maine.

Mitchell Owens is the American editor of The World of Interiors and a host of @indegaretravel. He was formerly decorative arts editor at Architectural Digest. He lives in New York.

Architecture and interiors photographer Richard Powers has photographed more than 20 books and his work appears regularly in the US and European editions of Architectural Digest, Elle Decor, The World of Interiors, Vogue, and the Wall Street Journal. He lives in the south of France.

This is the definitive volume on Craig Ellwood, a visionary architect, designer, and tastemaker often called the “California Mies van der Rohe.”

Craig Ellwood, “the Cary Grant of architecture,” was one of the most visible faces of California mid-century modernism. He was known as much for his exquisitely designed, minimalist structures as he was for his exuberant lifestyle.

This book celebrates and explores the glamour of Ellwood’s work, life, myth, and career. Through photographs, primarily of the iconic houses he designed in Southern California during the 1950s and ’60s, we see a life of refined decadence, expressed through gorgeous architecture, fast cars, beautiful women, Hollywood style, palm trees, swimming pools, and minimalist design — all in the context of the Southern California postwar building boom.

This volume will appeal to design junkies, architecture buffs, students of modernism, and anyone interested in problem-solving and elegant solutions.

This book celebrates inventive and inspired homes that are at once original and the product of visionary designers at the height of their powers.

Making House features the houses and apartments of leading interior, furniture, and product designers—homes by designers, as designed for themselves — including the abodes of well-known figures such as Jonathan Adler, Marc Newson, Britt Moran and Emiliano Salci of Dimore Studio, and Stephen Sills.

A great degree of inspiration is to be found among the personal homes and interiors of the masters. Designers, architects, and artists are free to experiment in a way that is unique, without any of the traditional limitations of a client-commissioned project. These are laboratories of invention. They are also private retreats, which offer a range of design solutions for common challenges from which the reader may glean new ideas and the motivation to make such ideas real.

Beautifully illustrated, this volume is at once a document and a celebration of some of the most inspiring homes from around the world and the creative minds and personalities behind them, photographed specifically for this book.

About the Author:

Photographs of each house reveal its architecture, interior design and surroundings, while plans provide an additional layer of information.
