New Perspectives Coastal Houses

The residential space, which previously had a single function, is transformed today into a hybrid scenario: a dwelling may be an architect's office, a computer school, an artist's studio, and a busy family home. These facts are analysed in the present volume through the presentation of beautiful examples from different parts of the world. Among them there are the own home and studio of major architects as Wiel Arets, Rick Joy, Randy Brown, Jose Cruz Ovalle and Wendel Burnette, and the home offices of artists, musicians, fashion designers, etc. created by well known architects such as John Pawson, Glenn Murcutt and Dieter Thiel.

The new apartment

Lofts and penthouses constitute one of the laboratories of creativity in modern architecture. These spaces are found in buildings formerly used by industry, and because they are diaphanous, they offer the possibility of creating true paradises for living and working. This book presents a broad selection of the finest works carried out in this field, all splendidly illustrated with full-color photographs, plans, and texts that explain the architectural projects behind. A publication providing numerous original ideas for redesigning such spaces while respecting their history and tradition.

Lofts and Penthouses

Houses constructed in coastal areas come in a myriad of styles and designs but one thing they have in common is the fundamental role played by the presence of the sea. However different their styles, dimensions, construction materials, and the uses to which they are put, their proximity to water will have had the largest single influence on the way in which they have come into existence. In this case, location will have determined not only the orientation of the dwelling but also the layout of the internal spaces, size of windows, type of outside living areas, and to some degree protection from the elements. Features works by Silvia Gmur & Livio Vacchini, 10 Arquitectos, MVRDV and Toshiko Mori.

Through recent examples by renowned international archtects as Norisada Maeda, MVRDV, Atelier Tekuto, Lorcan O'Herlihy Architectes and Suguira Office, among others, this monographic work analyses the difficulty of integrating new residential volumes into sites that are particularly narrow and difficult due to their situation and environment, and making them connect with the context through exemplary technical and formal solutions.
