2 comments about Home Remodeling (Good Ideas).
- If you love modern design, this book is inspiring. On every page, is a presentation of gorgeous color photographs taken in 42 locations throughout the world. Also included are diagrams of the floor plans and a brief description of the images. I've not been a huge modern fan, but I think I might become one after exploring this book. A picture is definitely worth a thousand words.
- "Remodelings" seem to belimited to large, loft-type properties and nothing really new here. A disappointment.

1 comments about Mapping HK.
- The authors say this is a book for residents of Hong Kong rather than for tourists, but really it is ideal for the kind of traveller who is interested in how various cities work and "feel". I bought this in HK while travelling there in 2001, and can attest that it faithfully and insightfully captures what Hong Kong is "like" (at least at a certain level).
The format basically that of a photo essay, with high-quality photography of distinctive features of HK's urban landscape and often insightful commentary. The authors have a predilection for the language of postmodern continental philosophy, not usually my favourite reading, but sometimes used here to good effect.

- Great book with the boldness of the simple. Calm and conscientious analysis of architecture today and it's commitment to history and the profession. One of the best books of criticism that I have ever read.
