The House Book

“Everyone knows of this book, but it remains nonpareil in terms of format: bringing super practical advice to pages chock-full of illustrative examples and presenting somewhat niche expertise in an accessible way.”

“Probably the best book out there on understanding home design, upkeep, and making a house feel like home. I thrifted my copy. It came out in 1974, so ask your older relatives if they have one. You can also read it free on the Internet Archive.”

“i look at this book every few months and have for years. the ultimate inspiration for home”
