Description
A stunning visual sourcebook of the most creative and innovative interior designs, Converted Spaces presents a spectacular collection of homes by such international architects and designers as Piers Gough, Andree Putnam, John Pawson and Eva Jiricnanot all modern in style but with an aesthetic that works for modern living. Through their inspirational designs we see how an architectural shell becomes an adventurous living space: we see ingenious solutions to huge wrap-around windows, high ceilings, plumbing and services in inflexible places, as well as the means of heating, lighting and furnishing vast spaces - how to make a challenging space habitable. Spectacular gatefold features show in their entirety a broad spectrum of successful conversions that span from industrial heritage to rural past. These include a light-industrial factory, a heavy-industrial building, an office, a warehouse, a barn and a school - all specially photographed using a wide-angle, panoramic lens to convey a sense of unlimited space.
