Slats Facades (Paperback)

This book explores the resurgent trend in using slats and venetian blind-style facades. The facade represents a building's outer skin, and it is through this outer skin - the design, choice of materials, textures, and tones used in its composition, that architects can endow a building with a particular character. Slats Facades is a superbly illustrated volume that provides a detailed look at some of the recent resurgence in the use of slats and venetian blind style designs. Filled with full-colour photography and detailed architectural plans and drawings, alongside discussions on how the architects and designer approached each project, this is must-have resource.
