The first book by architect Adams features houses that embody the resonance of tradition, the authenticity of craftsmanship, and the lasting beauty of natural materials.

Architect Adams has long had a passion for design. His appreciation for how things are made had its genesis in his childhood experiences on a farm in Asheville, North Carolina. As a boy, Adams always had a pencil in hand, sketching for hours. Today, it is his understanding of craft and response to place that sets him apart.

Mia ★★★★★

I bought this after seeing how the architect handles natural materials, and the chapters on craftsmanship didn't disappoint. The sections on wood and stone detailing made me rethink a few choices in my own renovation.

Samuel F. ★★★★★

The photography of the natural materials and craftsmanship details is what sold me — you can actually see the texture of the stone and timber in the close-ups. I've been flipping through it slowly, one house at a time, and it's already given me ideas for our own renovation.

Jacob E. ★★★★☆

The photography alone makes this worth the price—close-ups of natural wood and stone grain really sell the argument. My only gripe is that a few of the floor plans are too small to read comfortably.
