內容簡介
內容簡介 建築師在設計新住宅或翻修既有住宅時,通常都需依據業主的需求進行。然而,能夠無須受限於業主要求、自由打造屬於自己的家,對建築師或設計師而言,無疑是夢寐以求的機會。《建築師的家》(The Architect's House)收錄了來自世界各地二十位建築師的自宅設計,將為有意興建新居或翻新老屋的讀者帶來真正的靈感,鼓勵他們勇於冒險、突破既有思維。在這個人們普遍對財務與創意趨於保守的時代,本書為讀者提供了走出平凡、跳脫「僅考慮轉售價值」這種單一思維的契機。 書中所介紹的住宅類型多樣——從城市公寓到坐落於原生森林中的獨棟大宅皆有涵蓋。但貫穿全書的核心,是這些建築師們堅持打造真正契合自身生活方式的居所,無論是現在或未來。而這些作品並非追逐潮流,而是深刻呈現屋主的個人風格,因此擁有歷久彌新的魅力。An architect generally works to a client’s brief when designing a new home or renovating an existing dwelling. However, the opportunity for an architect or a designer to create their own home, without the constraints of a client, must certainly be at the top of their wish list.Featuring twenty architects from around the world, The Architect's House will truly inspire those contemplating building a new home or renovating an older style of residence to take on the adventurous spirit. At a time when people are being cautious, both in terms of finances and ideas, they will find inspiration to go beyond the prosaic or not simply to chase the idea of a home with only resale value in mind.The properties featured here are diverse – from apartments through to large detached homes surrounded by hectares of native forest. However, what ‘stitches’ them together is the architects’ determination to create homes that perfectly suit the way they choose to live, both in the present and in the future. And because the projects don’t follow trends but beautifully capture the ‘voice’ of the owners, they remain timeless.
作者介紹
作者介紹 Stephen CraftiStephen Crafti has been writing on architecture & design for well over 30 years and has produced 45 books to date. He started writing on architecture & design in the early 1990s after purchasing a modernist home. He also operates architecture tours in Europe and in Japan, as well as in Australia and New Zealand, which has given him a strong connection to architects overseas. Crafti is a regular columnist for Australia’s leading newspapers, The Age and The Sydney Morning Herald. He also contributes to leading magazines such as wallpaper* in London and for Belle magazine in Australia. For Crafti, looking at architecture requires understanding the ‘full picture’ from the landscape that surrounds a building to the furniture and objects within.
