This work reveals, through colour illustrations and architects' drawings, the variety of contemporary outdoor rooms being designed by leading architects. Susan Zevon seeks to discover how architects are transforming outdoor spaces - through the design of courtyards, pool areas, terraces, porches and roof gardens - in response to the growing desire to spend leisure time outdoors. Projects include holiday homes in Italy and Switzerland by Cini Boeri; courtyard houses in Madrid and Algiers by Alberto Campo Baeza, and in Tokyo by Tadao Ando; Indian verandahed riverside villas and terrace gardens for Bombay flats by Charles Correa; Walter Chatham's New York City roof garden; and outdoor rooms in Florida, the Dominican Republic and Holland by Hugh Newell Jacobsen.
