Upgrade Your House
Rebuild, Renovate, and Reimagine Your Home

Old houses have good bones, and Upgrade Your House from Gestalten is about what can be done with them. Discover the art of transforming old architecture into a haven of comfort and style. This is your guide to upgrading your home without breaking the bank, as it offers a carefully curated selection of projects that showcase the best renovations, rebuilds, and extensions from private residences across the globe.

At the heart of Upgrade Your House is the philosophy of sustainability, which shows how a creative vision and skilful execution can transform a preexisting structure into a dream home. With a focus on inspiring practical solutions, this book reveals how changes to floor plans, modern extensions, or cleverly executed refurbishments can unleash the full potential of any house to become a desirable residence.

Whether you're an architect, designer, or homeowner, the captivating imagery and floor plans make Upgrade Your House an indispensable reference. It is a fitting gift for anyone who has just bought a do-up, is mid-renovation, or simply loves poring over other people's houses. Browse more titles from Gestalten or our full Books collection.
