We are ontya few months away from theend of the century, a century that has witnessed the evolution of the work of prominent architects, in which new technologies have played an important role. Budgetary considerations aside, architecture has no limits and is capable of realizing even the most fantastic dreams of clients, designers and builders, Domestic architecture is a paradigm: of this evolution A privileged field of experimentation, it closely examines the domestic aspirations of our time and places before us new lifestyles and speculations about changes in family,social, and even work environments: Stunning Houses features a selection of homes from the end of the millennium.

This selection looks beyond dictatorial factors like economics, aesthetics or fetishism to examine houses that have broken away from the past and that define today's innovation and tomorrow's classicism. The book does not aim to convert these houses into prototypes or models to follow; they are included because they reflect the peculiarities of their era, sites and owners.

This nicely designed book will offer the last international constructions on single family houses, offering a perfect reference for architects, interior designers and general public interested in private housing architecture. Some of today's most inspiring houses of the world.
