Lofts

"A rich narrative based on a review of thirty-one architectural schemes, this book inspects the social themes and design trends of the loft movement. Benefitting from full-colour photographs - many specially commissioned - and plans, as well as interviews with architects, developers and the loft dwellers from around the world, Lofts offers both a critical history and an intriguing visual record of this singular building type."--BOOK JACKET.
