Beach Houses Of Australia and New Zealand

Images Publishing, 2003. Hardcover in Dustjacket. Near Fine. ARCHITECTURE""If there is one thing that symbolises the Australian way of life - it is leisure time in a weekend house, preferably near the sea. The houses that they build are moderate in size and cost to construct - their predominant aim being to maximise a sense of freedom and ease of use in open spaces, both inside and out of the house. They are rarely sophisticated in taste, but rather put their emphasis on an emerging Australian unpretentious simplicity of style ... one can only marvel at the perseverance of the architects and their clients who produced the work in this book."" 159 p. : col. ill., plans ; 31 cm. #240324 Vacation homes -- Australia Vacation homes -- New Zealand Seaside architecture -- Australia Seaside architecture -- New Zealand 2003 reprint of 2000 edition (Note Volume 2 also available)  Elizabeth's Bookshops have been one of Australia's premier independent book dealers since 1973.
