The glasshouses of the nineteenth century represent a remarkable confluence of opposites in architecture and technology. The architecture was designed to create an artificial climate in which people could return to paradise, and yet the technical means employed were also basic to the century's developing industrial grime -the other side of paradise. Enriched by more than 700 illustrations, Houses of Glass chronicles these pristine structures as they evolved from hothouses into exhibition halls, ballrooms, and theaters. Georg Kohlmaier is an architect and Barna von Sartory a sculptor. They have collaborated on many books and articles on contemporary architecture.

Ornamental designs, exquisite windows, and stunning lampshades: esteemed artist Haim Raz presents nearly 30 of his favorite stained glass pieces in an enlightening on-the-page course. Every project can be completed in a home workshop, using standard glass cutting tools and materials--and throughout the collection, Raz teaches novice craftspeople how they can alter the motifs, colors, and glass to express their own personal style. He gets beginners started with advice on setting up a workspace; choosing tools and materials; and basic techniques. Start off with such easy items as a decorative bright red butterfly or three-petal coaster; as skills improve, move on to the Hanging Mirror with Nuggets, Indigo Morning Glory Windows, and Purple Lace Lampshade.
