4.0 out of 5 stars OK, but US. Fab photos, 17 May 2005

By	G. Stevenson (West Wales) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is a nice coffee table kind of book, glossy photos of some amazing buildings, mostly new-build. An ideas book rather than an informative one, but pleasant enough all the same. I bought it whilst researching my book on UK prefabs (Palaces for the People: Prefabs in Post-War Britain). It wasn't at all useful for what I wanted but I enjoyed it all the same. Makes you want to move into a pod! Note it is US based and very much for that market. Possibly a bit overpriced?
