Summary: If you love concrete houses, you should see this book
Review: It's a great overview of beautiful concrete houses, most of which I had never seen before. BUT, I have to say that they authors did disappoint me on one level; PICTURES! The pics are good, but they could have been SO MUCH BETTER. I'm constantly left wondering what the rest of a house looks like. Entire pages are devoted to single pictures (of staircases and the like) when they should have had an abundance of views. Overall, I do love this book, and you probably will too.

Summary: Interesting Homes
Review: This book could easily have been 4 times as thick to cover all that needs to be covered when it comes to concrete architecture but it does give the reader a good idea of what can be done with concrete when it comes to home building. If your into concrete architecture then this book will give you a glimpse of homes that you won't find in any other books.

Summary: Poor Detail.
Review: This book is a good idea and provides some interesting ideas, but is low on detail and the pictures aren't that spectacular either.I bought is as a package with Cheng's "Concrete Countertops" which I highly recommend. I'd pass on this book.

Summary: I really can't believe this
Review: This is my favourite book! I can't stop looking at it. So many people look at you in horror when you say you want any concrete element in your home. Sarah Gaventa's book could really help them open their minds. (It is not as if concrete is a new building material. The Roman's built with it!)
