MONOCLE BOOK OF HOMES

Good homes are places where lives unfold, families grow up, dogs jump on sofas, friends enjoy your hospitality. They should sustain you, inspire you and tell your story through their architecture, use of materials and contents. This Monocle title explores individual homes, housing projects old and new, communities of self-builders, even whole neighbourhoods where a simple philosophy of building well has created quality of life for many. Monocle has also recruited key thinkers, writers and designers to share their perspectives in a series of fascinating essays.
