Items related to Houses Extensions: Creating New Open Spaces
Synopsis
When much of our existing housing stock was built, lifestyles were very different. This means that a large proportion of a contemporary architect's work is about adapting these older buildings, rather than building afresh. The challenge for today's architects is thus to adapt our old buildings to our new ways of living, whilst not destroying what we like about them. This often means adding more space to the back, the roof or the side, or even sometimes underneath, whilst retaining the original building's front as part of the streetscape.
Houses: Extensions brings together 15 exceptional extension projects including 8 from the UK that showcase some of the most innovative and stylish architectural solutions for adding more space to a home.
UK firms featured: Adam Knibb Architects, Chris Dyson Architects, Ashton Porter Architects, Paul Archer Design, AR Design Studio, Tigg+Coll Architects, and Riach Architects.

Condition: New. Cuando la mayor parte de las viviendas existentes se construyeron, el estilo de vida de las familias que las habitaban era muy distinto. Una parte muy importante del trabajo arquitectónico ha sido adaptar estos edificios a los nuevos tiempos para no construirlos de nuevo. El reto es por ello adaptar nuestros antiguos edificios a nuestra forma moderna de vivir, sin destruir lo que apreciamos de estas viviendas. Y la adaptación ha significado, en muchas ocasiones, añadir más espacio. Muchas veces en la parte de atrás, en un lateral o en el tejado, e incluso por debajo, para mantener intacta la fachada principal del edificio como parte del paisaje urbanístico. Este libro trata el reto de adaptar nuestros antiguos edificios a nuestra nueva forma de vida, de muchas formas distintas y muy creativas. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.
