This accessible and inspirational exploration of distinctive homes proves that good design can be very human design.

More than 300 color photographs showcase the timelessness of well-thought-out dwellings. With deliberate focus on how people use their homes, how to integrate a home with its landscape, and how to best highlight the unique characteristics of a home, Eck has provided a valuable blueprint for elevating your house from mundane to remarkable.
