Waterside Modern

0/5 ( ratings)

The most luxurious homes in the world incorporate elements of the surrounding&nbsp;environment into their design, and waterside homes bespeak a particular kind of&nbsp;luxury. Waterside Modern is a dream tour through some of the most beautiful&nbsp;modern homes in the world, all set against spectacular views of lakes, rivers, and&nbsp;oceans. From California to Long Island, Sydney to Singapore, South America to&nbsp;Europe and the Mediterranean?some of the most beautiful countries in the world&nbsp;provide the backdrop for twenty-five architect-designed single-family houses that&nbsp;make the most of their desirable settings.

By maximizing the link between indoor and outdoor space, using local materials,&nbsp;and emphasizing spectacular views, each structure celebrates an outdoor lifestyle&nbsp;while protecting its inhabitants from the elements. Loosely grouped into three&nbsp;sections?beach house, ocean belvedere, waterfront villa?this beautifully photographed&nbsp;volume will inspire architects and interior designers, while serving as a rich&nbsp;visual escape for those who love fine homes.
