A book about space: the space found within 20th century houses. It is both about the actual rooms within select works of the period and the conceptual space that these works delineate in relation to one another. This book is illustrated throughout with examples from houses by both renowned and lesser known architects such as Le Corbusier, Frank Lloyd Wright, Josef Frank, J.J.P. Oud, Ernst May, R.M.Schindler, Alvar Aalto, Mies van der Rohe, Gunnar Asplund and Adolf Loos. These houses all share a unique characteristic in that they make use of regional traditions or express a mannerism within the modern. In this way, they are modern houses with an inheritance, with room for a composite of sentimental values.
