44 Scotland Street

Alexander McCall Smith

Welcome to 44 Scotland Street, home to some of Edinburgh's most colorful characters. There's Pat, a twenty-year-old who has recently moved into a flat with Bruce, an athletic young man with a keen awareness of his own appearance. Their neighbor, Domenica, is an eccentric and insightful widow. In the flat below are Irene and her appealing son Bertie, who is the victim of his mother's desire for him to learn the saxophone and italian--all at the tender age of five. Love triangles, a lost painting, intriguing new friends, and an encounter with a famous Scottish crime writer are just a few of the ingredients that add to this delightful and witty portrait of Edinburgh society, which was first published as a serial in The Scotsman newspaper.From the Trade Paperback edition.

Dreamscapes & artificial architecture

Robert Klanten and Elli Stuhler

Eine Reise durch traumähnliche Landschaften, unglaubliche Gebäude und fantastische Räume an der Grenze des Vorstellbaren.0Laut Oscar Wilde ist ?Fortschritt die Verwirklichung von Utopien?. Dreamscapes folgt seinem Weitblick und lädt seine Leser ein, Kulissen zu entdecken, die nicht von dieser Welt sind und die mit ihren Ideen den Weg in die Zukunft öffnen. Indem die Grenzen zwischen architektonischer Funktionalität und abstrakten künstlerischen Ausdrucksformen verschwimmen, offenbaren sich neue Visionen für Architektur, Design, Innenraumgestaltung und Bühnenbild. Das Buch präsentiert die Arbeiten führender Kreativer aus der ganzen Welt gemeinsam mit ihren Inspirationen und Zielen. Ideen, die von den Möglichkeiten digitaler Techniken wie Computeranimation und -grafik bestimmt sind und die eine neue inspirierende Richtung vorgeben, an der sich die Grenzen zwischen Realität und Fiktion auflösen.
