"High On ... Light + Architecture explores the role and use of light in and around modern buildings. This full colour book illustrates how a greater understanding of this intangible and free material leads to better architecture and improves our quality of life. It explains why light is so fundamental to human perception, how its nature and use are influenced by time and place and how it has come to be used as a tool for abstract architectural design. Drawing on centuries of thinking and over 30 international examples, the author explores the different ways that light can be harnessed and manipulated to achieve particular objectives, emotions or experiences, as well as how the technologies and techniques for doing so have developed over time"--Publisher's description

Uno stile di vita più flessibile, l'aumento degli affitti e un numero maggiore di abitazioni unipersonali hanno portato a ridurre gli appartamenti, specialmente nelle grandi città, a una sola stanza. Tuttavia, questo non deve necessariamente essere uno svantaggio. L'uso dello spazio può essere ottimizzato con un design intelligente; arredi minimalisti, mobili su misura e colori prevalentemente chiari sono tre ingredienti fondamentali di qualsiasi monolocale, dove il presupposto è fare a meno di tutto ciò che è superfluo. Questo libro presenta 21 progetti di design contemporaneo e urbano per ottimizzare gli spazi, dimostrando quanto possa essere alla moda e funzionale una stanza.
Poiché le strade diventano sempre più affollate, vivere in cima a un edificio promette privacy e distanza. I tetti sono diventati il simbolo di un nuovo stile di vita: un'estensione e un godimento esclusivo di un'area tradizionalmente considerata la corona architettonica di un edificio, trasformata in un nuovo spazio per lavorare o vivere. Architetti, designer e urbanisti hanno visto in questa sezione finale di un edificio la loro ultima possibilità di dare libero sfogo alle fantasie e di plasmare in modo drammatico gli skylines delle città con estensioni, mansarde e tetti unici. Questo volume offre uno sguardo molto ravvicinato sulle diverse possibilità del design dei tetti di edifici residenziali, aziendali e altri. Circa 200 progetti presentano i diversi tipi di tetti a falde, tetti piani con vegetazione, giardini pensili come aree piscina o ulteriori spazi abitativi.
