Stephen Crafti Bücher

Einladend und komfortabel Wohnhöfe und Terrassen – Grenzbereiche zwischen innen und außen, Haus und Garten, Architektur und Landschaft – sind wesentliche Elemente des zeitgenössischen Bau- und Wohnstils. Als willkommene Erweiterung der Innenräume bieten sie hohen Wohnkomfort und eine abwechslungsreiche Alternative zu pflegeaufwendigen Gärten. «Inside out» stellt 45 moderne Häuser und Wohnanlagen vor: Neu- oder Umbauten, die Höfe und Terrassen integrieren. Inspirierende Fotografien zeigen, wie Architektur und Garten durch einzigartige Designlösungen miteinander verbunden werden, ergänzt durch Grundrisse und erläuternde Kommentare der Gestalter. Selbst auf kleinsten oder ungewöhnlich geschnittenen Grundstücken entstehen so attraktive (multi)funktionale Räume im Freien, die sich hervorragend bepflanzen und mit minimalem Aufwand instand halten lassen. Ausstattung: Mit 270 Farbabbildungen und 33 Grundrissen
