This volume features recent projects from all continents, showing the different approaches and solutions to this sophisticated design task at the intersection of architecture, landscape design and urban planning. Hardly any other area of spatial design offers such functional and formal diversity as does the design of urban spaces.

The office will become increasingly more adept as a foil for the visions and the selfrealisation of employers and architects. The forms these visions may take, and the way in which planners today are approaching the task of designing workspaces, is the subject of this volume, which uses a selection of 30 representative projects with a wide variety of different approaches: some mark a break with the traditional organisation of offices; some, it would seem, want to make offices into artistic interiors; others yet again work with the psychology of colours and shapes, or combine the interior withe the landscape and environment.

Water as an integral feature of domestic architecture is the theme of this new book from noted architectural writer and critic Stephen Crafti. The fifty homes beautifully featured in full color in this book are diverse, and include apartments and townhouses, small terraces and large homes. While the styles of these homes may vary, they are all enhanced by the magic of water, and demonstrate how water can be integrated with architecture. Water isn’t seen as an afterthought but has been thoughtfully considered from the outset to achieve a certain goal. This book doesn’t simply suggest using water for the sake of creating a "splash" or as a means of impressing visitors; its purpose is to show how, with the right imagination and skill, water can strengthen architectural forms, complementing the experience of living in these homes.
