Bathroom house
 |
This book examines over 30 bathroom designs from around the world, each one designed by a notable architect and created especially for a specific residence. For each bathroom there is an image of the whole house (placing it in context and providing a flavor of the general design style), images of the bathroom, and a floor plan showing its relation to the other spaces. The pages that follow are entirely devoted to detailed drawings showing the arrangement and construction of the bathroom, in particular sections, elevations, and construction details of all the fitted units and joinery. These drawings are all made to a consistent style and to a set number of scales for easy comparison. Dimensions are also included with the drawings as well as details of fitted units (baths, showers, basins, etc.). The credits for the projects include contact details of suppliers so that the exact materials and fixtures can be sourced. The projects are arranged into chapters by type of dominant material: glass, steel and stone. The book will be invaluable for all practicing architects as well as those considering commissioning a high-quality bathroom for their own house.

Tough Times! Changing World! Unacceptable Catholic and Lutheran marriage - WWII - Tight Money - Labor Strikes for Unions - Nuclear Weapons - Korean War - Milk Strikes - Birth of Rock & Roll - Illegal Drugs - Computerization - Vietnam War - Assassinations - and twelve children to feed, clothe, house, and educate! My mother would call out the front window, "Georgie, Dolores, Patty, Reenie, Jeri, Lorraine, Raymond, Eddie, Dennis, Robert, Tommy, Adrianne, come on up-dinner is on the table!" Yes, Pat Upton Stamm's family was poor. Yes, they struggled to survive tough times - and they did! Her parents, George and Elvira Upton, instilled in all of their children the value of a penny, nickel, and dime. They made them work hard to attain their goals; and made education a top priority. It was not cheaper by the dozen! Nothing was handed to them unless they earned it. Against all odds, they overcame many difficult challenges, while surrounding their children with unending love, faith, and sacrifice. As the third born, the author's memoir details - with humor - the struggles, adventures, accomplishments, and good and bad times as a family. Others who lived through these challenging years will be stirred, recalling memories of the nostalgic times, places, and events.

Specifics on ventilation, waterproofing, faucets, showers, tubs, and more give readers the knowledge they need to create the bathroom they've always wanted. The New Bathroom Idea Book gives homeowners hundreds of ideas about how to make one of the most necessary rooms in the house one of the most beautiful. "Fabulous.

"It was the ultimate turnkey operationdown to the color-coordinated toothbrushes in the bathroom. All you needed were your clothes and a six-pack" Frank Tauma, Montauk real estate brokerWho doesn't dream of owning a second home at the beach? Well, in the early 1960s, it was a snap even for the working class. For as little as $590 down and $73 a month, you could walk into Macy's and leave with a fully furnished house. All you needed to move in was a key and some groceries. Each house came complete with furniture, appliances, a45-piece Melmac dinner service, plastic glasses, and fifty pieces of stainless-steel flatware, plus towels, napkins, placemats, beds, pillows and sheets, even toothbrushes. The homes also promised low maintenance with redwood siding and interior paneling that never needed painting and had lifetime guarantees. In Leisurama, author Paul Sahre uncovers the mystery of this legendary slice of architectural Americana and lovingly documents its forty-year history with a treasure trove of text, photographs, historical documentation, and oral histories.Two hundred and fifty Leisurama houses were built at Culloden Shores in Montauk, Long Island. Most of thehomes have since been converted to year-round occupancy, and with very few exceptions, all have been enlarged andredecorated, while the once barren shore is now forested. In a sweet paradox, these once very affordable homes thatwere looked down upon by more well-to-do neighbors are now desirable and expensive, even "collectable." Their richlegacy lives on in the affordable pages of Leisurama.
