Garage takes a look at the last, undiscovered frontier of home design... the most versatile room not in the house. The book explores many uses for this ubiquitous space -- from studio, library, and museum to soundstage, playroom, and greenhouse. Garage takes this space seriously, after all.
-- Includes more than 200 color photographs of over 50 garages.
-- Shows how to create a garage "room" that meets one's needs for efficiency and style.
-- Provides options for using existing space and floor plans for new structures.
There's little parking available in these garages: Obolensky's collection of well-heeled buildings have been converted to elegant living quarters or elaborate studio spaces. A brief history precedes the design ideas, but the latter dominate, with lots of color photos. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
