Summary

America is awash in drab, uninspired, mundane houses all in cookie-cutter molds. In these days when the urge to step up to a more commodious house can prove very expensive, this book will prove a godsend by showing how one can remodel a Ranch, reshape a Cape, and rebuild a Builder's Colonial. Long viewed as "starter" houses, these American standards are now being turned into impressive "finisher" houses. The standards are perfect forms for altering, adding onto, and overlaying different architectural styles and details to create new, hybrid, one-of-a-kind homes. Architects are seeing these transformations in every part of the country, and this fascinating and useful book will provide endless inspiration for the fulfillment of homeowners' dreams.
