Summary:
Cet ouvrage présente plusieurs projets illustrés, conçus par des architectes et décorateurs de renom. Matériaux traditionnels ou innovants, souples ou solides, doux ou rugueux... A chacun correspond une atmosphère particulière. On peut ainsi choisir une ambiance zen, chaleureuse, contemporaine ou futuriste, et la souligner grâce à l'emploi des matières appropriées, pour la structure comme pour la décoration. Si le béton évoque la modernité, le verre permet de créer transparences et sensations d'espace, le bois apporte chaleur et noblesse, dans un esprit classique ou actuel. Plus originaux, les bottes de paille et le bambou produisent des effets sensationnels.
