In Detail Housed award-winning architect Pieter J. Mathews pursues his ambition to stimulate more vision and originality in South African house design. It follows his highly successful first publication Architexture.
Throughout Detail Housed, the importance of adopting a holistic approach to detailing is emphasised. The conceptual wisdom of some of the world's masters of architecture is used to reveal the significance of the myriad elements that contribute to stylish living. Whether large or small elements, from front doors and stairs to signage and door handles, each receives authoritative attention, applied with a wealth of practical information.
Mathews again displays his unique ability to blend innovative architectural expression with other design disciplines into a visual feast of creativity. With its superb photography, sketches and down-to-earth explanations, Detail Housed will be a constant source of inspiration and reference for anyone wishing to build in a modern South African idiom.
