What They're Saying

Critics Review

The cutting edge of contemporary architecture from around the world. * Dezeen *
In the third volume Jodidio provides answers to the question of how architecture can be climate-friendly, individual and surprising at the same time - and makes it clear how the interplay of technology and creativity can give rise to special architecture… And, so the diversity that Jodidio presents in his book gives hope. * Süddeutsche Zeitung *
Philip Jodidio has one of the best senses of direction in the world when it comes to hip locations. With 59 buildings in 25 countries, the third volume of the series Homes for Our Time presents visionary architecture that is driving change in its industry. The innovative structures are the result of technological advances that offer space for creativity and enable sustainable, regional living. * Harper’s Bazaar *
Encapsulates the splendor and significance of domestic architecture. * Flaunt *
The best modern homes in the world. * The Times Magazine *
Unique spaces free of partitions, imposing windows to give the illusion of a continuation outside, and natural elements to mark the link with surroundings, while never neglecting innovation. This book chronicles the evolution of architecture and design while also looking to the future. * Il Messaggero *
It’s great to get a feel for the advanced designs from around the world… Certainly a rich source for people who really want to build houses! * Monopol *
The houses published here represent an increasing awareness not only of the beauty of nature, but also of the need to preserve and protect such beauty. * Philip Jodidio *
