Architecture Now!: Architecture now houses

There may be distinctions between a house and a home. The fact remains that the fundamental ideas of shelter, life and death are intertwined with the architecture of the commonplace in every dwelling, from cave to castle. This book leads the reader from Patagonia in Argentina to the cliffs of Dover Heights, Australia to see some remarkable houses.
