Space within: Reshaping the Home for Contemporary Living

Space within: Reshaping the Home for Contemporary Living

by JaneWithers (Author), Christoph Kicherer (Photographer)

Synopsis

Contemporary life demands that we make the most of our space and time. With that in mind, this book describes how best to adapt your home - probably designed to meet the needs of an earlier generation - to suit your lifestyle, providing over 20 real-life case studies, and showing how they were converted to suit the needs of real people. Not about cosmetic, decorative style, it looks at the fundamental structure of the home, how it affects our daily routine, and even how relatively minor alterations can maximize the potential of an existing living space.
