A true world tour of contemporary architecture, this book invites the reader to discover bold and innovative houses. From Paris to Casablanca, via Singapore, Sydney, and San Francisco, architecture must take into account the realities of ecology and population. The great principles of modernism are thus adapted to different climates, urban densities, and local uses. In urban settings, the single-family home is synonymous with experimentation for architects. Questions of privacy, light, and space use are at the heart of the projects highlighted in this book. Featuring more than 350 illustrations, the World Atlas of Contemporary Houses defies time and space, presenting within its pages an incredibly rich panorama of today's urban architecture.
