"What started out in New York art circles has become more and more popular: living and working in former factory buildings and warehouses. Maintaining the old while creating a modern, comfortable atmosphere is nothing less than a tightrope walk.

This book presents more than 150 projects from all over the world, created by well-known architects and designers. More than 2,000 exquisite color photographs provide great insight into this extraordinary way of living, letting readers share in the experience of living and working in a loft.
