Invisible Lines, Immortal Beams, by Edinburgh-based artist Barry McGlashan, documents the past two years of his practice, including the celebrated solo exhibition of the same name at Frestonian Gallery from the spring of 2025. Thresholds, metaphorical and literal, are an omnipresent motif in Barry McGlashan’s evocative paintings. The featured works bring viewers to the edge of lakes, to rivers and roads, and lead to the foot of mountains. Other times the viewer is inside, looking out through windows to the landscape and sky beyond. Transcending time and geography, reality and folklore, McGlashan’s dream-like and otherworldly paintings are as haunting as they are enchanting.
This publication also features works presented by the artist and gallery at Art SG in Singapore in early 2025, as well as documentation of The Distant Ideal, McGlashan’s first presentation at Frestonian in March 2024.

For more than 40 years, Benita VanWinkle has traveled the country photographing hometown movie theaters and drive-ins built before 1965 as part of her ongoing documentary project Please Remain Standing—a visual appeal to preserve these historic treasures. VanWinkle has recorded the astonishing range of these iconic structures, from repurposed Quonset huts to grand movie palaces. Her photographs depict magnificent Art Deco detailing and Mayan-style ornamentation, neon-lit theater marquees as well as the whimsical road signs that still entice moviegoers to once ubiquitous drive-ins. An impressive 512 full-page photographs, selected from the thousands VanWinkle has made to date, document 395 present and former movie theaters and drive-ins and conjure a time when Americans embraced the communal experience of going out to the movies—a few hours in which shared laughter and tears unite strangers. The book honors this beloved national pastime and highlights the continuing importance of movie theaters in preserving a town’s sense of community.

This is a comprehensive essential tool to understanding and appreciating the Dome of Florence in its entirety. It is published as the result of several months of photographing all the famous structures – the interior of the Cathedral, Brunelleschi’s dome, the Baptistery – in ultra-high gigapixel photographic capture, including the frescoes inside the dome that no one but conservators have seen in centuries. More than an architectural icon for the millions of visitors to Florence every year, Santa Maria del Fiore represents the moment Europe discovered its new identity—one that valorized human ingenuity, revived classical ideals, and re-imagined the relationship between beauty, mathematics, and the divine.

RAW is a new series documenting street graphics in cities around the world. Volume one is Tokyo. Every city leaves a visual record of itself on its own surfaces. Tokyo’s is unlike anywhere else. Stickers layered over stickers, posters that outlast their purpose, signs that become accidental compositions, marks and residue that accumulate into something nobody designed but everybody sees. RAW: Tokyo is a forensic, beautiful document of that record. Shot across the city’s most visually dense neighborhoods, it captures the tension at the heart of Tokyo’s streets: extraordinary control existing alongside extraordinary overload. Alongside the photography, five Tokyo practitioners — photographers, graffiti writers, musicians, architects, journalists, sign painters, curators, artists — write from inside this visual environment. Each the only possible choice. A foreword by a leading Japanese curator closes the volume.
The first volume in an ongoing series. Next: London.
This architecture book weaves history, restoration, and daily experience into a layered portrait of Maison Guiette, from its inception to the most recent interventions. Historical documents and correspondence between Le Corbusier and Guiette bring the original vision to life, while reflections from past and present residents highlight both the continuity and fragility of the heritage.
Furthermore, the house was meticulously restored by Ann Demeulemeester and Patrick Robyn. Their commitment to and respect for this modernist legacy played a major role in preserving the residence. Finally, Victor Robyn’s photography captures the house in its daily rhythm: light, usage, and detail as silent witnesses to life inside the home.
There is a certain kind of home that does not seek attention. It does not rely on spectacle or excess to announce its presence. Instead, it reveals itself gradually—through proportion, light, material, craftsmanship, and an atmosphere that can only be described as deeply human. It is a home that invites you to slow down, to notice, and to stay.
In an age of constant stimulation, quiet has become one of the greatest luxuries. Not silence alone, but the quiet confidence of spaces that are thoughtfully conceived, beautifully executed, and destined to endure. It is a quality that transcends trends and fashions, reminding us that true elegance is rarely loud.
The remarkable success of our book Quiet Luxury, embraced by readers around the world and reprinted twice, affirmed that this philosophy resonates far beyond the world of architecture and interior design. It reflected a growing appreciation for homes that celebrate restraint over extravagance, authenticity over ornament, and permanence over novelty.
The Quiet Home continues that journey. Across thirty-six exceptional private residences from around the globe, this volume presents an inspiring collection of contemporary homes created by some of today’s most accomplished architects and interior designers. While each project speaks with its own distinct voice—shaped by culture, landscape, and the personalities of its inhabitants—they are united by a shared sensibility: an unwavering commitment to quality, craftsmanship, and thoughtful design.
These are homes where every material has been carefully considered, where natural light becomes an architectural element, and where the dialogue between inside and outside enriches daily life. They remind us that luxury is not measured by abundance, but by intention. The finest interiors are those that feel inevitable rather than imposed, composed with patience, precision, and respect for both place and people.
The pages that follow are more than a celebration of beautiful houses. They offer a meditation on the evolving meaning of home itself. Increasingly, our homes have become places not only to live, but to restore, create, gather, and reflect. They are our sanctuaries from an increasingly accelerated world. The projects featured here demonstrate how exceptional design can shape not only spaces, but also the quality of everyday living.
Beautifully photographed and richly detailed, each residence offers an invitation to observe the subtle decisions that transform architecture into experience: the warmth of timber meeting stone, the play of shadow across textured surfaces, the quiet confidence of handcrafted details, and the effortless balance between comfort and sophistication.
Whether you are an architect, designer, collector, or simply someone who appreciates enduring beauty, this book offers both inspiration and reassurance. It reminds us that the most memorable homes are not necessarily the most elaborate, but those that possess a sense of calm, integrity, and soul.
