About the Item
Vintage hardback book, Architects’ Dream Houses by Jean-Claude Delorme, with photography by Thibaut Cuisset, published by Abbeville Press in 1996. First English edition, 192 pages.
“In this sumptuously illustrated volume, Jean-Claude Delorme explores ten extraordinary homes conceived and built by visionary architects for their own private lives. Each house stands as a complete expression of personal ideology—from Sir John Soane’s richly layered London residence to Antonio Gaudí’s dreamlike palace and Charles Rennie Mackintosh’s Hill House, pictured on the cover. These spaces defy convention and embrace what Delorme calls ‘the beautiful, the irrational, the mythic, the rare, the unique—everything that is opposed to the standardization of our way of life.’ With poetic photography by Thibaut Cuisset, Architects’ Dream Houses invites readers into the inner worlds of some of history’s most imaginative architectural minds.”
