| Summary |
Architects are exploring the technology of glass and concrete in creative ways. We look at three transparent expressions of contemporary architecture. 1. Architect Paul de Ruiter has innovated the indoor pool in a home just outside of Amsterdam by placing it in the middle of the house and enclosing it in glass. 2. Architect James Cheng has pushed the use of glass and concrete to new heights with a glass staircase and meticulous concrete construction in one family's Vancouver home. 3. Architect Derek Crain has designed a concrete and glass house in Ottawa that makes its residents feel part of their outdoor environment. |
