The projects featured in this exciting new publication are as inspiring as their locations - from a remote hotel in Chile to spacious residences in North America, from corporate structures in Scandinavia to mountain accommodations in Europe and Australia. Despite such diversity, all the projects shown share one important theme. They have been designed to withstand various cold-climate conditions including sub-zero temperatures, frequent freeze-thaw cycles, heavy snowfalls and the long, dark days of arctic winters. Each project is accompanied by a description outlining some of its cold-climate design features, and is illustrated with full colour photographs. Plans and drawings showcase innovative building interiors and exteriors, all set in stunning winter landscapes.
