Abstract

Projects by Winka Dubbeldam / Archi-Tectonics, Frank Lupo / Daniel Rowen, Herzog & De Meuron, Diller + Socfidio, Hariri & Hariri, MVRDV, Michael Bell, Bernard Tschumi, Shigeru Ban, Michael Maltzan, François de Menil, Scogin Elam and Bray, Farjadi Farjadi Architects, Rem Koolhaas / OMA, Xaveer De Geyter Architectenbureau, Joel Sanders, Preston Scott Cohen, Simon Ungers with Thomas Kinslow, Thomas Hanrahan and Victoria Meyers, Kolatan / Mac Donald Studio, Clorindo Testa, SANAA / Kazuyo Sejima / Ryue Nishizawa & Associates, UN Studio / Van Berkel & Bos, Guthrie + Buresh Architects, Neil M. Denari, Steven Holl Architects. This book looks at twenty-six houses by an international roster of contemporary architects. Responding to recent innovations in architecture and changing cultural conditions, these designs represent a transformation of the traditional notion of the private house. In a provocative essay, Terence Riley, examines the influence of social phenomena - such as current demographic patterns, the shifting boundary between private and public realms, and new concepts of work and leisure - on house design. Featured are houses with open, loftstyle spaces and flexible interiors, adaptable to varying family needs. Others interweave living and working spaces. Because of the rapid growth of digital media, the house today can be a permeable structure, receiving and transmitting images, sound, language and data.
