Description

Elegant rusticity meets unpretentious luxury within the work of this award-winning architecture firm. Howard Backen, principal of the architecture firm Backen, Gillam & Kroeger, is on the center of a well-liked movement in home design that emphasizes elegant simplicity and embraces the country charm of natural materials. This volume, the first on his work and that of the firm, is an artful exploration of this aesthetic, featuring farmhouses within the Napa Valley, hilltop homes, seaside retreats, and lakeside hideaways. All through the work, a sense of intimacy, warmth, and informality pervades. Natural materials, such as wood, stone, and brick, form the foundations, walls, and ceilings of these subtly luxurious spaces, even as nature itself plays a thought to be role that may be directly complementary and likewise intricately conjoined with the work. Sensitive, alluring, and wonderfully resonant with the suggestion of invitation, the work of Backen, Gillam & Kroeger is both thrilling to the eye and restorative to the soul.
