Summary

Making the Most of Small Spaces was so popular, we've decided to do it all again. Like before, the new More Small Spaces features new designs discovered and presented by Stephen Crafti. It shows that with careful detail and planning, architects can somehow make a space fit a lifestyle! These living spaces nestled in our great urban centres have style and functionality despite the limitations of space. This book is guaranteed to be popular. It shows how the contemporary urban lifestyle can be both close to the action, yet not compromised by the limitations of real space. Crafti has excelled again. The spaces the reader discovers are even more intricately entwined with living in the real world. Anyone who enjoyed the first book will undoubtedly add this title to their collection.
