Wedlick focuses on innovative window uses, strong entries, interior and exterior material choices, functional yet beautiful storage, and more, encouraging readers to mix and match styles and ideas.
Another Taunton book, A House on the Water: Inspiration for Living at the Water's Edge, showcases 24 waterfront homes in 224 pages. Robert Knight, also an architect, outlines six design keys: siting and massing, the approach (paths from land and water), framing views, gracious transitions and outdoor spaces, cohesive interior design, and wedding a house to its site.
Both books can be ordered through www.HousingZone.com/store.
