Reseña del editor
"Under the Sun" captures the beautiful traditions of desert living through a unique tour of desert architecture and interiors - from North Africa and Spain to Mexico and the American Soutwest. Illustrated with nearly three hundred striking color photographs, the book celebrates the architectural styles of some of the world's most arid regions. Exploring how the harsh realities of desert life have shaped desert buildings over the centuries and continents, the authors give us detailed portraits of thirty-eight notable sites. Among these sites are a mosque in Tunisia, a kasbah in Morocco, a Spanish hill town, a Native American pueblo, a historic limestone ranch in Texas, a self-sufficient New Mexico house made from tires, a sun-drenched adobe dream house in Arizona, and a dazzling, contemporary house in California. Throughout, spectacular images of exteriors, interiors, patios, and gardens - from the contemplative quiet of the Alhambra in Granada to sophisticated open-air living rooms in California - show how the best desert buildings are the ones that interact harmoniously with the natural environment.
Reseña del editor
Now in paperback, Under the Sun features the architectural traditions of desert living around the world, from ancient adobe structures to innovative contemporary houses. Beginning with a survey of the age-old desert architecture of North African, Spanish, and Native American cultures, the book profiles ecologically sound homes in Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, California, Hawaii, and Northern Mexico.
