Lofts Of Amsterdam

Boldly and with great individuality, people often bend unconventional buildings to suit themselves. In this book, intimate domestic interiors are often being shown for the first time. Photos predominate and the text is deliberately kept to a minimum. Those with a passion for architecture will be in their element. Enjoy looking and reading!
