Paperback. Condition: Very Good. "The photography is stunning and the book gives a privileged insight into some of the most beautiful and stylish resorts. Highly Recommended! "Hot Brands Cool Places There are few destinations more alluring than resorts. The combination of an evocative location, lavish rooms, exceptional service and architecture that's designed to inspire, has long been irresistible to travellers. In the past decade, however, the global search for stylish getaways has become so intense that hospitality has now become the world's fastest growing industry. Few people understand the nature of resorts and the secrets of designing them more than the world-renowned architects and designers, Wimberly Allison Tong & Goo (WATG), whose mission over the last six decades has been 'to design experiences that lift the spirit'. Having created hundreds of exclusive destinations for well-known companies such as the Four Seasons, Sheraton and Hyatt, ranging from luxurious island resorts to exotic desert getaways, sophisticated urban hideaways, and cool mountaintop retreats, WATG has become a respected name in the area of resorts and hotels. Some of their extraordinary projects include the Hotel Bora Bora in French Polynesia, The Palace of the Lost City in South Africa, The Ritz-Carlton Laguna Niguel in California, and the Hyatt Regency in Kauai Resort & Spa in Hawaii. This spectacular volume looks at these and other world-class destinations, and also takes you behind the foyers to explore the inspiration and ideas behind the designs, which often begin from a thought on a notepad. As well, it offers insightful interviews with those involved with the projects, explains how the vernacular architecture of the region can influence the end design, and even predicts what resorts may look like in the future.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Restrooms are inescapably important amenities, but something of a grey zone when it comes to design. In a massive effort to make them inconspicuous, public restrooms have been standardised, buried in underground bunkers, hidden behind walls and unmarked doors. At times, it seems our embarrassment with their very existence has led to an inability to provide sound sanitation. This book presents a selection of over forty very diverse public restroom designs, in which toilets enjoy special status as a vehicle for various artistic and cultural expressions, corporate values and the needs of different social groups. Four experts from different backgrounds and countries have been invited to write on sensitive issues in public restroom design. More than 500 full-colour photographs, plans and detailed descriptions illustrate the designs in detail and provide fascinating information to architects, interior designers, students, and so on. AUTHOR: After qualifying as an architect, in 1985 from the National School of Architecture of Saint Etienne, France, Jacky Suchail has divided his time between Urbanism Institute of Point-a-Pitre, Guadeloupe, and the University Jean Monnet of Lyon where he was completing his degree as an urbanist. Back in Europe, he founded JSA, a practice of architecture and urbanism. Particularly concerned by innovative use of nature, design and sustainability, the office is currently involved in a wide range of projects ranging from urban planning to large scale regeneration, public buildings and social housing. Striving towards the good comprehension of contemporary issues, JSA's projects endeavour to raise a larger vision than the one suggested by their subjects and their scale. SELLING POINT: .
