Lofts Of London - McGuire Penny

. .

Résumé :
Lofts of London is the third in a series of seven books in which the TECTUM PUBLISHING COMPANY reveals the finest lofts of several Northern, Central and Southern European cities. Diversity is the thread running throughout the series. As a reader you are treated to an immense variety of lofts in a wide range of buildings. They have been converted with great ingenuity and imagination by a new breed of urban dwellers who have embraced the loft living idyll. Enthusiastically eclectic, importing ideas gathered from travel or reading, and using furniture from modern emporiums of design or found ni junk shops, these loft dwellers have left the essential character and texture of their buildings intact while layering space in subtle ways so that volumetric grandeur is not lost. This tour gives the reader a glimpse of the inventiveness, vigour, and pride in creating spectacular dwellings out of amorphous spaces. Photos dominate and the text is deliberately kept to a minimum. Those with a passion for architecture will be in their element. Enjoy looking and reading !
