Description
"Peeking through the Keyhole explores transformations in the way we live and the places we call home. Avi Friedman and David Krawitz guide the reader through the trends and changes that have influenced residential design and construction over the last fifty years. From kitchens to home offices to entire neighbourhoods, they unravel the effect of technology and consumerism on the way we perceive and use domestic space, arguing that homes are no longer a product of pure design but a response to forces beyond the control of designers, builders, and users."--BOOK JACKET.
