Refined architecture and interior design are the contemporary way to create a sense of luxury. Luxury Houses City shows us a beautiful selection of residential projects from cities around the world, where we can see luxury based on well-chosen details. All these stunning spaces show that a more restful and sophisticated ambience is the hallmark of contemporary luxury. ?

The most interesting examples of high-end urban design from around the world, all in one place

therack (denver, co) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Luxury Houses City (Hardcover)

I really loved, "Luxury Houses: Country," by the same publisher, but was disappointed with this book. I expected more diversity of city design. What I found was alot of pictures of the same thing...no excitement...no uniqueness. Where is the creativity that is found in the Country volume? They missed the mark in this one, :( Spend your money elsewhere. Sorry.
