Detail in Contemporary Residential Architecture 2 follows on from the success of the first book in the series, and contains entirely new projects. Featuring the work of renowned architects from around the world, this book presents 50 of the most recently completed and influential house designs.

Each project is presented with colour photographs, site plans and sections and elevations, as well as numerous construction details.
