Warehouse Home

A global look at contemporary, ingenious, and yet comfortable transformations of former industrial spaces into stylish modern residences As space for land development in cities shrinks and city dwellers tire of cookie-cutter apartment towers, a love for historical buildings has returned. The initial interest in "lofts" began in SoHo, New York, in the 1970s, and the love of warehouse buildings--often in attractive waterside locations--has since become a global phenomenon. Drawing on her personal experience living in a Grade II listed mill, Sophie Bush has amassed a wealth of knowledge and understanding about which ingredients make an industrial building perfect for contemporary living. Warehouse Home is the ultimate resource for everything from how best to preserve and complement original architectural features to style ideas for adapting vintage and reclaimed pieces for modern décor. The first section, "Architectural Features," looks at how to make the most of a space while retaining its original features, such as exposed brickwork and concrete floors. It also draws on examples of former industrial buildings across the world that have been renovated to create distinctive homes and workspaces. The second section, "Decorative Details," provides tips on how to recreate the warehouse aesthetic in any home, from repurposing pallets and breeze-blocks as furniture to transforming exhaust cones into unique lighting fixtures. A reference section provides ideas on where to source everything from furniture to finishes.

Hotel to Home pairs travel with interior design inspiration.

Joe Campbell was a healthcare administrator, a county commissioner, and a senator. He never envisioned himself as a nursing home resident. Withering away in a large nursing home, Joe thought that he no longer had societal value. Chambers Village more closely resembled a geriatric warehouse. Residents with vacant stares lined up along the hallways. Strict schedules and a sterile medical environment became their lives. But using his strategic planning skills and the help of the nursing home administrator and other residents, they created a vision to make a home for the four hundred fifty people who resided in Chambers Village. A home that provided the residents who lived there with the opportunity to live as a family""making their own decisions and helping to care for one another. This is a book of hope for anyone who has felt that they are incapable of making changes to their living situation. This story provides insight into our fears of aging and our hope for humanity.

Manchester is known for its cotton mills, the Town Hall and its imposing commercial architecture, but it is textile warehouses that provide the distinctive element in its streetscape and make it unlike any other town in England. These warehouses were only built during the century following 1825 - a relatively short time in the history of Manchester - and were never found throughout the city. However they are intimately connected with Manchester's past position as the centre for the manufacturing and selling of cotton goods within England and to other parts of the world. Their monumental scale and sometimes exuberant architectural style dominate the areas of the town in which they are clustered. Nowhere else in Britain has there ever been such a concentration of buildings of this kind: the streets of the commercial quarter of Manchester are as distinctive as are those of governmental London.
