What makes a loft smart? This book presents the extraordinary designs of recently completed lofts that highlight three kinds of smart solutions. Through smart technology, a variety of electronic devices attend to your needs while in the loft, and carry on a variety of necessary functions while you're away.

Summary:
The Case Study House program (1945–1966) was an exceptional, innovative event in the history of American architecture. The program, which concentrated on the Los Angeles area and oversaw the design of 36 prototype homes, sought to make available plans for modern residences that could be easily and cheaply constructed during the postwar building boom. Highly experimental, the program generated houses that were designed to redefine the modern home, and thus had a pronounced influence on architecture—American and international—both during the program’s existence and even to this day. With over 150 photos and plans and a map of where all houses are (or were) located.

Summary:
The villa has always represented a very special architectural undertaking. It offers architects the opportunity to demonstrate their ability and good taste, but also demands a great measure of discipline. Here the Berlin architect Klaus Theo Brenner has collected together a series of 16 prototype designs for villas and country-houses. All the designs are based on a unifying concept, which looks for the specific feature of architecture in a radical, effective overall form. Objects without compromise; characteristic houses, the effect of which is developed before and with the backdrop of nature – a conception opposing and complementing the urban row house. This architectonic picture-story offers a wealth of inspiration for both architects and their clients.

Summary:
The desire to have a home of one’s own is still the leading motivation for those who wish to construct or purchase buildings. Row and twin houses and ribbon developments constitute an affordable alternative to the single-family house, especially for young families. In times of tight budgets and rising investment costs, they represent a sensible alternative to the freestanding single-family house, particularly in terms of their use of open space. That they can also be appealing, high-quality houses is shown by the selected international examples in this new volume in the series In Detail. The projects presented are organized by building material and clearly documented with an area map, ground plans, and interrelated sections. The documentation of examples is supplemented by technical articles offering concrete support and assistance for the planner and building sponsor. In addition to analyzing the typology of the high-density, single-family house, the volume introduces different planning and financing models as well as energy-saving building methods and construction with prefabricated parts.
