Some of you may be asking “What’s a lookbook?” The short answer: a lookbook is a collection of photos done in a nicely designed format to show images and convey a style, theme, or brand to a select audience. They are quite useful for those who appreciate having a visual, so when Dezeen started publishing lookbooks, we were really excited. Since then, we go to their website each week to see what’s new.
We respect and enjoy seeing the creativity of other designers and architects, and Dezeen’s lookbooks are a great source of inspiration for those who love the beauty of a thoughtfully designed built environment. Here are five interesting lookbooks with a note as to why they caught our eye.
This lookbook shows how interior glass panels can offer semi privacy and delineate different spaces. Considering how much we have been at home for the last year, these concepts inspire ways to make the most of smaller spaces, create work-at-home areas, and add interesting design features while still allowing light to filter through.

Not only are rooftop gardens beautiful, but they are incredibly eco-friendly and add to our well-being. Green roofs and rooftop gardens have gained in popularity, and we hope to see even more of these incorporated globally into building projects. Click here for more.
Who wouldn’t love to have a spa-like bath? Luxury can extend to even the smallest of spaces in a home. The simplicity of natural stone paired with the right hardware, lighting, color palette, and materials can transform any bath space. Click here for more.
Natural light makes everything prettier and creating ways to let natural light flood a space is fundamental to architectural design. Here, Dezeen puts together looks of various kitchens that have been designed to receive as much light as possible. Click here for more.
Indoor-outdoor living is a must-have, especially here in California. We take this into consideration for each and every one of our projects. There’s a gratifying sense of design when the flow of space seamlessly transitions from the inside to the outside. In this lookbook, we like Dezeen’s picks that have a modern, casual elegance.
