Top 50 Beautiful Homes

The 50 remarkable masterpieces have been carefully selected to represent the trend of modern home design and designers' various ideas about environment in different regions, cultures and settings. The selected projects include apartments and villas with functional areas from the interior to exterior spaces. Each project has proved a particular design style and the diversity and practicability of design elements, and thus helps to explore local cultural characteristics in the current international similarity of the design patterns.
The designing process is always restricted by both the building space and the client's expectations, where designers' ideas are expressed through not only space division, but also interface elements as well as various compositions of different interfaces. Therefore, how to find the right materials to convey the orderly emotional experience and finally achieve the symbolic effect based on the ample embodiment of the colour and texture, appears of great prominence.
"Beauty" in this book is merely a broad concept, while in practice there are so many standards and definitions about the "beauty" in the housing design. Here, it refers to the classicism reflected in the "Quidnet Road" by Kathleen Hay Designs, or the postmodernism in the "Apartment F" by SCHOLSSER+PARTNER or the Chinese traditional cultural characteristics in the "Taiyuan Aparment" by MOHEN DESIGN, etc.
We hope that this book will provide readers with an excellent visual feast, and meanwhile, encourage them to think over the essence of each project and the lasting artistic charm behind it.
