ArchitectureWeek Description
This book celebrates the holiday home, traditionally a
place of rest, relaxation, and escape from the pressures of
the 'real' world. Its many incarnations include beach
shacks, mountain-top chalets, country estates, ranches and
hobby farms, lakeside villas, and isolated cabins. The architecture of holiday homes reveals the shift in
lifestyle that defines a vacation; architects are required
to work closely with their clients to achieve just the
right spirit. Amazon Customer Average Rating: Some Related Books...
