Lifestyles Today (Interior Design Around the World)

Who wants to live how? The most diverse life patterns and lifestyles are reflected in the way a person designs his or her home. Architects and interior designers have to get involved with the individual character of their clients, they have to understand how their clients want to live and implement this in their room concepts and designs. From the seating furniture via the wall design to the orientation of the bed to the window, all of this provides information about the inhabitants on the most diverse levels. Wood or stainless steel, filigree plants, pink lampshades – or even the motorbike next to the fridge – make very different statements about the self-image and the sought-after external image of the residents. This book celebrates life in all its diversity through magnificent interiors.
