Description: This book showcases thirty-three exceptional houses from around the world in a variety of styles, from traditional to contemporary. Each house has its own ambiance and its own particular relationship with the environment, whether it is perched on top of a cliff, nestled in a rocky hollow, or built on the sand. Both inside and out and in every locale, the design approaches range from simple rustic style to the ultimate in luxurious elegance.
