Featured book

Homes for a Changing Climate

Will Anderson
£20

Will Anderson’s new book, Homes for a Changing Climate, explores traditional and contemporary responses to the challenges of diverse climates and illustrates the many ways in which houses can be designed, built and adapted to cope with these challenges.

Dwelling: Accordia

Feilden Clegg Bradley Studios
£19.95

Dwelling describes the design and architecture of this new residential quarter in Cambridge, a multi-award winning green project. In 2008 Accordia won the prestigious Stirling Prize, the highest accolade awarded to architecture in the UK. Previously, no Stirling Prize had been awarded for housing developments.

Ecological Urbanism

Edited by Mohsen Mostafavi with Gareth Doherty
£40.00

While climate change, sustainable architecture, and green technologies have become increasingly topical, issues surrounding the sustainability of the city are much less developed. Ecological Urbanism suggests that an ecological approach is urgently needed both as a remedial device for the contemporary city and as an organizing principle for new cities.

Renovated Houses In Style

Roberto Bottura
£35.00

The wide array of designs presented in this volume offers a varied vision of the latest trends in renovating buildings. Reputed architects suggest inventive solutions for giving old structures a fresh, renewed look and for creating effective spaces for domestic use.

Jelly

Bompas and Parr
£14.99

Jelly is wobbling back into fashion and Bompas & Parr are at the forefront of the revolution. The book begins with an overview of the incredible history of jelly, from Henry VIII's 'jelly hippocras' to the fantastic forms dreamed up by the Victorians. It then delves into the science of creating the perfect jelly, using the very best ingredients and moulding techniques.
