World-renowned architectural writer and critic Philip Jodidio delves into his selection of the Top Twenty-six of the most contemporary and current house designs from around the world, showcasing the most innovative and influential designs from Europe, United States, United Kingdom, Australia, South and Central America, India, and Asia.

He provides an incisive analysis of the site-specific elements, key environmental factors of the landscape design, the use of spatial visualisations, light, sustainability, and materials, and other critical design features of each home.

He expertly articulates and examines the relationships between the architecture and the intentions of the design for the people who live there, taking into account how the architecture affects human behaviour, what enhances the success of the design of each home in this collection, with an overview of current industry trends, and where to next for residential design innovation.

This beautifully presented book, filled with stunning photographs and detailed plans and diagrams, celebrates residential luxury, inspirational style and design innovation from around the globe.
