Everyone says cities are on the rise. It stands to reason, then, that the people moving there must have places to live. The New City Home: Smart Design for Metro Living from The Taunton Press is packed with design solutions for urban living that meet author Leslie Plummer Clagett’s four specifications: character, craftsmanship, nature and efficiency.
Although the profiled homes are not all new construction — some are renovations, apartments or lofts — the spectacular photos and design ideas apply to many types of homes.
The New City Home (hardcover, 224 pages) is available by calling Taunton at 800/477-8727.
