‟Exceptionally stunning, filled with actual surprises and destined to develop into a much-sought-after collector’s merchandise.”
The e book has lengthy been out of print and second-hand copies scarce, but it surely’s now out there once more in a really brief and restricted run. The revised version has a brand new cowl in gloss black, an up to date design, and the images have a contemporary color grade.

Say the authors: “These homes aren’t new, they’re previous and lived in. They could be a little dusty, barely worn across the edges and all have what vintage sellers prefer to name ‘patina’. However they’re good within the minds of the individuals who reside in them due to what they symbolize, which when designed, was a greater method of residing.”
Mary Gaudin
