A beautifully illustrated showcase of the most stunning Modernist houses which are or have been lived in by artists.

Covering the mid to late twentieth century and with some buildings from the twenty-first century, architectural journalist Harriet Thorpe catalogues 50 of the most extraordinary examples as well as the stories behind the artists who lived in them.

It is Illustrated with beautiful photography throughout which captures these buildings at their very best. | Harriet Thorpe is an author and journalist who writes about architecture, urbanism, travel, art, design, and lifestyle.
