About The Book
Features 31 magnificent residences that elevate urban living to an entirely new level. This unique volume showcases the best in contemporary residential design from around the world, created by renowned architects and interior designers.
Urban life is often defined by its energy—fast-moving, restless, and ever-changing. Yet within the heart of the world’s great cities lie rare sanctuaries that balance this intensity with calm, beauty, and refinement. Urban Sanctuaries celebrates these havens of design, where architecture and interiors transform daily living into something extraordinary. As the much-anticipated successor to Urban Mansions & Apartments (2020)—a volume that quickly sold out in print—this book continues the journey into contemporary urban living. Featuring 31 magnificent residences, from penthouses and lofts to townhouses and historic renovations, it offers an intimate look at how the best architects and interior designers elevate private spaces above the rhythm of the streets. Each residence tells its own story. From the sweeping views of a Manhattan penthouse to the quiet elegance of a Brussels townhouse, from the refined tranquility of a Dubai villa to the richly detailed character of a Brooklyn retreat, these homes embody the diversity of urban design today. They are more than dwellings: they they are expressions of personality, artistry, and vision.
