A global overview of the most contemporary and ingenious - and
comfortable - former light-industrial spaces transformed into
stylish modern residences. The love of warehouse buildings - often
in attractive waterside locations - has become a global phenomenon,
from London to New York, from Sydney to Florence. Drawing on her
own experience of living in a Grade II listed mill, Sophie Bush has
amassed a wealth of knowledge, contacts and understanding about
which ingredients make a building fit for contemporary habitation.
Warehouse Home is the ultimate resource for everything from how
best to preserve and complement original architectural features to
style ideas for adapting vintage and reclaimed pieces for modern
living. The book has a practical structure, broken down into two
key sections. 'Architectural Features' looks at how to make the
most of a space while retaining its features, such as exposed
brickwork, concrete floors and mezzanines. It also draws on
examples of former industrial buildings across the world that have
been renovated to create distinctive homes and workspaces, each
selected for the originality or intelligence of its design.
'Decorative Details' provides tips on how to recreate the warehouse
aesthetic in any home, from repurposing pallets and breeze blocks
as furniture to transforming exhaust cones into unique lighting
fixtures. A reference section includes ideas on where to source
everything from furniture to finishes.
