100 Contemporary Houses (Bibliotheca Universalis) (Multilingual Edition) Hardcover – April 15, 2016

First off, this book is a tremendous value. It’s filled with high quality photos of modern houses from all over the world. Add in some plan and elevation views, info on the respective architects and this book becomes an absolute gem. I highly recommend!!

Nice book

This set has A LOT of houses. It covers some of the main starchitects working on a less glamourous approach, since they had to shift from public and monumental spaces to the intimate and particular programs which is implied in the unifamiliar house.Still, there is a LOT of information missing. There are some projects in the book that have 2 or 3 pictures... no sections, plans, they don't have anything.After all, I'm happy with it. It has a good price and it is gonna help me out throughout my life.

Very impressive small book on some captivating contemporary home. I find it hard to believe that such a high quality hard bound book with photographs, drawings and trilingual text can cost so little. It would be worth five times it price just for the quality of it!

I honestly thought this was a smaller book. I was more or less getting it to qualify for Super Saver Shipping on another item =P. Discovering that it was a 2-volume, large pictured, high quality books I was excited to go through it. I would definitely recommend this item to anyone with an architectural career, background, or even just an enthusiast.

For 40 bucks you really do get 2 stunning books. Unfortunately you would need to be a 1%'er in order to live in any on these houses, but great for the imagination - and one day perhaps I will get there. Good luck to you in your own architectural dreams!

Very well planned and laid out. great images that all relate. The usual well edited Taschen work. I love this book!

Nice book. Variety of house choices. Mostly exterior shots with very little interior shots, unlike the cover shows. With the excess of pictures on pinterest and Instagram, I found the book over priced.
