London : Phaidon Press, 2021.

254 pages : color illustrations ; 30 cm

An awe-inspiring collection of contemporary homes designed to foster a connection with the essential elements of landscape, including locations in New South Wales and Victoria. Living in Nature showcases a selection of architect-designed houses that have something fundamental in common: a special relationship with the natural world. Each of the book's 50 homes is carefully chosen for its stunning location, whether cocooned within the earth itself or soaring high amongst treetops, surrounded by cooling waters, or resisting the desert heat. With a wealth of photographs showcasing each house inside and out, Living in Nature offers inspiration -- and tranquility.
