Affordable Houses Designed by Architects (An Architectural Record Book)
From dust jacket notes: "...Owning a custom-designed, affordable house is the dream of thousands of people today. And it's a dream that can easily come true - as you'll see when you look through the pages of this lavishly illustrated and authentically documented book. Chapter by chapter, this handsome volume shatters the myth that architect-designed houses are more costly than developer-built houses. The superb photographs (many of which are in full color) together with the floor plans, drawings, and details of interiors and exteriors underscore the point that beautiful houses can be constructed for the same kind of money as today's developer-built houses. The more than 60 houses that you'll see here were originally selected to appear in the pages of Architectural Record because of their genuine architectural distinction. These houses also compare favorably in cost per square foot with developer-built houses. And most important, they embody the personalities and reflect the needs of the people who live in them. Whether you're a prospective homeowner...a homeowner who's starting to think about your second home...or even a professional architect, you'll find a wealth of ideas here on how to construct beautiful and unique houses within limited budgets...."
