Hotel as Home: The Art of Living on the Road

Hotel as Home: The Art of Living on the Road Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

<P>Architect and photographer Gary Chang has a strange obsession: he absolutely loves hotels. It's a good thing, as he spends about 120 days a year traveling all over the world. Chang has become something of a hotel expert, but meeting his exacting standards for a suitable home away from home isn't easy. Chang's most-loved finds are documented in beautiful photographs, small floor plans, and personal texts in Hotel as Home. He presents 35 hotels from around the world in this wonderfully atmospheric book-from the Hotel 101 in Reykjavik, to the Hotel Le Corbusier in Marseilles, the Soho House Hotel in NY, the W Hotel in Sydney, the Four Seasons in Tokyo, and the Hotel Metropolitan in Bangkok.</P>
