New Scottish Houses (eBook, ePUB)

Contemporary architecture and living in the landscape

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

New Scottish Houses: Contemporary Architecture and Living in the Landscape brings together for the first time the best examples of contemporary rural houses in Scotland. Showcasing the new rural vernacular that has developed in Scotland over the past 20 years, it presents this rich seam of architecturally designed houses as a new, exciting and specific movement that aims to be distinctly Scottish.

Exploring the fusion of modern design with Scotland's rugged natural beauty, each case study explores a curate collection of contemporary homes that push the boundaries of design - from remote highlands to coastal hideaways. These homes have established a new vernacular for the region inspired by historical blackhouses, and place the buildings within an older 'pre-English' tradition of long houses: revising these lost traditions as more authentically Scottish, and more closely tied to Scotland's landscape, geology and climate.

Featuring striking photographs and insightful commentary, this beautiful book celebrates how architects and homeowners are creating spaces that are both sustainable and inspirational, reflecting the evolving identity of Scotland's built environment in the 21st century.
