      From small urban houses to large beach getaways, this book brings together a vast selection of the most interesting and spectacular residential projects constructed in the last few years. Beyond the available surface area or the chosen style of architecture, the house, like the world's view of the body, is and must be a mirror of our habits and preferences. Each house within this book, from small weekend refuges to sprawling family houses, attains a certain grandeur with which the reader can identify. SELLING POINTS: * High-quality, often full-page colour photographs of exteriors, interiors and architectural details * Informative articles * Detailed plans and elevations AUTHORS: Antoni Corcuera studied architecture and photography and has been working since 2003 as an editor and freelance photographer throughout the Netherlands and Spain.
