Architecture reflects the period of time in
which it was created. This is true for landmark
buildings and major public projects
as well as residential and family properties.
Yet architecture is also an expression
of an individual’s personality, needs, taste,
and his or her overall take on life. Different
countries, cultures, and lifestyles influence
the design of structures and interiors
as much as the local climate and other
regional characteristics do.
What does a house need to become a
home? Infinite Space provides answers to
this question that are as varied as the people
behind the projects presented on its
pages. Singles, couples, and families; clients,
architects, and suppliers―they all
have their own ideas of what makes a modern
home. While the featured buildings
have a contemporary clarity, lightness, and
openness in common, they differ greatly
in their details. The spectrum of materials
used includes wood, stone, metal, and
glass. Colors range from bright to subdued;
furnishings from glamorously elaborate to
tastefully understated. Their unique combination
gives each house its character or,
rather, reflects the character of its owners,
builders, and residents.
A terrace by a lake, a dramatic fireplace,
a living room bathed in sunlight adjoining
an open-plan kitchen, a pool amongst palm
trees, a sauna in the forest, a bedroom with
a sky view―Infinite Space showcases stunning
projects from all around the world
captured by renowned architecture and
interior photographer James Silverman on
his travels. In his images of living rooms,
bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchens, dining
rooms, working areas, children’s rooms,
and gardens, Silverman explores the interplay
of functional and decorative space, as
well as interiors and exteriors.
Infinite Space takes a nuanced look at how
houses are constructed today. This book
will not only inspire professional architects
and interior designers, but it will also
prompt anyone building or renovating a
house to define their own particular home
in more detail―little by little, and each
time slightly differently. Until their dream
home becomes a reality.
