Book Description
America's quintessential house style is reinvented for the 21st century family in this book. Farmhouses evoke nostalgic
memories, real or imagined, of a simpler life, and deep, nourishing connections to the seasons and the land. This
remarkable collection details and celebrates today's interpretation of the American farmhouse by focusing on traditional
elements as adapted for modern needs, such as porches, roofs, windows, mudrooms, doorways, vestibules, fireplaces,
and nooks. The 20 homes in this book represent today's best interpretations of this classic style in new and renovated
homes designed for modern living. In suburban and rural communities from Maine to California, The Farmhouse celebrates
an enduring American icon. This engaging tour, including over 300 color photographs and drawings that vividly showcase
the farmhouse of today in a variety of settings and seasons, will delight, instruct, and inspire homeowners, architects,
designers, and builders alike. Site and floor plans plus sidebars with historical detail are also included.
