Climate, environment, history, and technology are transforming architecture worldwide. The second volume in the Homes for Our Time series documents this housing revolution and raises questions: What role do homes play in our endangered world? How can they innovate?In Sri Lanka, Palinda Kannangara created the Frame Holiday Structure on a budget of $ 40,000. Built from steel scaffolding, exposed brick, and wood floors, the house can be easily disassembled and moved, adapting to the reality of the nearby floodplain.Luciano Lerner Basso’s Fortunata House in Brazil accommodates the surrounding nature: it was built around a tree of an endangered species and sits upon stilts so as not to disturb the forest floor. Miller Hull’s Loom House near Seattle has been called “the world’s most environmentally ambitious home renovation” because of its reliance on recycled materials and its efficient energy use. Modern architectural history has been viewed primarily from a Western perspective and formed by men.More than 60 buildings from Vietnam, South Africa, India, China, and beyond—designed by men, women, and collectives—mark the end of this era. There is no longer a predominant style, and there probably never will be again. With photos by renowned architectural photographers, and precise descriptions as well ...

Winner of the Wolfson History Prize, and described by A.S.Byatt as ''one of the finest biographies ever published'', this is Fiona MacCarthy''s magisterial biography of William Morris, legendary designer and father of the Victorian Arts and Crafts movement. ''Thrilling, absorbing and majestic.'' Independent''Wonderfully ambitious ... The definitive Morris biography.'' Sunday Times ''Delicious and intelligent, full of shining detail and mysteries respected.'' Daily Telegraph''Oh, the careful detail of this marvellous book! . . . A model of scholarly biography''. New StatesmanSince his death in 1896, William Morris has been celebrated as a giant of the Victorian era. But his genius was so multifaceted and so profound that its full extent has rarely been grasped. Many people may find it hard to believe that the greatest English designer of his time - possibly of all time - could also be internationally renowned as a founder of the socialist movement, and ranked as a poet with Tennyson and Browning.In her definitive biography - insightful, comprehensive, addictively readable - the award-winning Fiona MacCarthy gives us a richly detailed portrait of Morris''s complex character for the first time, shedding light on his immense creative powers as artist and designer of furniture, fabrics, wallpaper, stained glass, ...

Zatímco se Hilda zoufale snaží přesvědčit rodiče o tom, že je třeba kavárnu modernizovat, je ohrožena i její těžce vydobytá láska. Se štěstím obou jejích bratrů to není o nic lepší: Wilhelm, obdivovaný ženami, se zaplétá do povrchních milostných hrátek, přičemž jeho srdce touží po ženě, která je pro něho nedosažitelná. A jeho starší bratr August se ke všemu po svém návratu z ruského válečného zajetí zamiluje do mladé Rusky, aniž tuší, že jeho volba hrozí rozštěpit rodinu...
