Yukio Futagawa — HOUSES IN NORTHERN EUROPE 2

Out of Stock

GLOBAL INTERIOR (GI) : Houses In Northern Europe 2, 1974 from one of the finest interior architecture book series ever published: the GI “The Series of Global Interior” from the producers of the highly esteemed GA (Global Architecture), GA Document, GA Houses, etc. architectural publications. GI was produced throughout the 1970’s in a total of ten volumes. Each large volume highlighted a selection of architectural projects by renowned international architects, some volumes focusing on a specific architect entirely, and highlighted their work for houses and domestic spaces. Many of these long-lost buildings are captured only in this series of books. Beautiful architectural photography of house interiors, exteriors and room details of living spaces, along with texts (mostly in Japanese) and floor-plans/elevation drawings make up the profiles on each featured building or environment. The visual generosity of these handsomely designed and printed journals (each more a book than a magazine) make them a treasure for any architecture or interior design enthusiast or collector
