BALTIC HOMES - IMPORTADO

Along the sandy beaches and forest edges and on the countless rocky islands of the archipelagos, the heritage of the houses from the lands that circle the Baltic Sea is plain to see. Villas from the late 19th century, fishermen´s cottages, farms and manor houses nestling in the countryside, contemporary homes designed to fit their natural environment: as the ice and snows of winter melt away, these homes seem to come back to life with the rhythm of the lengthening days. From Denmark to Sweden and Poland, from Russia to Finland and Estonia, from Germany to Lithuania and Latvia, ?Baltic Homes? features over twenty houses from this fascinating part of northernmost Europe, painting a sometimes nostalgic, sometimes resolutely modern picture of the area. With 262 colour photographs by distinguished photographer Sølvi dos Santos, this engrossing and seductive book encapsulates a distinctive and beautiful style of life.
