The Visual Dictionary of American Domestic Architecture

by Rachel Carley

The Visual Dictionary of American Domestic Architecture Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Architectural historian Rachel Carley offers a richly detailed guide to 500 years of American home design. More than 600 precisely detailed illustrations show readers how to identify and describe a house of a particular style. Every element that may be found on a Beaux Arts townhouse, a Navajo hogan, or a Craftsman bungalow is displayed. An essential reference for American homeowners, restorers, and old-house buffs who, by the year 2000, will spend more on home renovation and restoration than on new-home construction.
