Lofts of
Amsterdam is the second in a series of seven books in which the Tectum
publishing company shows you the finest lofts of several Northern, Central
and Southern European cities. To follow the highly successful Loft of Antwerp,
which appeared in 1999, we shall be going to London, Paris, Hamburg, Barcelona
and Stockholm. Diversity is the thread running throughout the series. The
image of a city and its inhabitants is defined not only by its geographical
situation and history but also by economics. The design of a home is usually
a reflection of these various aspects. Lofts of Amsterdam takes
you on a captivating walk round former warehouses, empty churches, schools
and hospitals, all of which have been given new purpose as a home or workplace.
Boldly and with great individuality, people often bend unconventional buildings
to suit themselves. In this book, intimate domestic interiors are often
being shows for the first tima. Photos predominate and the text is deliberately
kept to a minimum. Those with a passion for architecture will be in their
element.
Enjoy looking and reading! |
