Offers unprecedented access into the most innovative high-rise living spaces around the world More people than ever before are living in apartment buildings high above cities. To meet the growing demand for dynamic urban environments, striking new buildings have become “vertical villages” that offer comfort, diversity, and refreshing atmospheres reminiscent of clubs or hotels. Vertical Living profiles a range these spaces, which demonstrate an ever more sophisticated style palette while facing the challenges that arise when the walls are made of glass.

Each chapter features interviews with designers—including Starck, Marcel Wanders, Jade Jagger, and Kelly Hoppen—who have embraced new vertical spaces and changes in lifestyle to produce an impressive range of open-plan living spaces and spa-style bathrooms, as well as new integral features of vertical living: glorious lobbies, communal relaxation areas, sky terraces, and rooftop dining. With examples from cities including Mumbai, Panama City, Istanbul, Marrakech, and Moscow, among others, the book reveals some of the most beautiful—and breathtaking—examples of city living.

* * * 'Informative and entertaining, this publication is a feast for the eyes, while also thought provoking, and offers excellent inspiration for daydreaming about what makes the perfect, modern house.' Wallpaper 'A fascinating selection of innovative homes....this is a thoughtful journey through the evolution of domestic architecture.' Sunday Express Over the last century the way that we live at home has changed dramatically. Nothing short of a design revolution has transformed our houses and the spaces within them - moving from traditional patterns of living all the way through to an era of more fluid, open-plan and modern styles. Whether we live in a new home or a period house, our spaces will have been shaped one way or another by the pioneering Modernists and Mid-century architects and designers who argued for a fresh way of life. Architectural and design writer Dominic Bradbury charts the course of this voyage all the way from the late 19th century through to the houses of today in this ground-breaking book. Over nineteen thematic chapters, he explains the way our houses have been reinvented, while taking in - along the way - the giants of Art Deco, influential Modernists including Le Corbusier and Frank Lloyd Wright, as well as post-war innovators such as Eero Saarinen and Philip Johnson. Taking us from the 20th to the 21st century, Bradbury explores the progress of 'modernity' itself and reveals the secret history of our very own homes.
