The loft has become one of the most significant cultural movements in contemporary architecture. This brilliant new book is the first to tell the story of the loft the way we can best appreciate it -- with living and work spaces specifically chosen for their loft-like ambience and photos selected for their uniquely loft-like 'look'. Charting the progress from humble, bohemian beginnings in 1950s Manhattan to its current status of urban sanctuary, Lofts presents some thirty dramatic examples. Accompanying each expose are plans and drawings of the actual transformation into living space, showing how architects have slipped into a building's skin and bring it new life. In eight compelling and superbly photographed chapters, the authentic loft look is definitively unveiled and effectively explained for the architect and dweller.
