Description

Hardcover in clamshell box:

A specific region’s environmental needs regularly lead to a regional vernacular architecture that embraces a common style. Yet, Hutker Architects, Inc., has designed over two hundred homes in coastal New England that steer clear of a single style. The twenty-five diverse residential projects in this book illustrate a process–not a preordained style • The common thread running through the Hutker projects is using the life equity principle: a home will have to generate social and emotional equity over the years. The conversation between the architect and each and every client reveals the way to design and build this home once well to verify positive and enduring social and emotional outcomes. A home with life equity provides for the owner’s long term needs, both physical and psychological, uses materials best suited to the spaces needed, and accommodates ever-changing circle of relatives arrangements. Hutker homes fit clients so well, that they’re rarely sold out of doors the families that build them. Whether small or large, owners treat these homes as heirlooms to be preserved and handed down to the next generation.
