Summary: The pieces that make the whole
Comment: I always think about those spaces that I want in a house that makes it me. Like a mudroom with panache. A breakfast nook that makes you want to leave your PJ's on. But what about that home builder who just puts regular wood floors or places windows where there is no view. These are the details or 'pieces' that make a house your home.
I see all these details in Dennis Wedlick's book. All those details that we want to include or that would make our house and, so, our lives more functional.
Doorways, windows, roof styles, beams that frame and add style to the structure.
Those places for things and everything in its place. Like built-ins, cubbies, shelves and rooms for particular functions like a laundry room, a hobby room and a pantry.
Places in those larger basic rooms like an island in the kitchen, a fireplace or a windows seat that make a living room cozy.
How about ramping up a room or making an unused room more integrated into the home? The idea of an addition or a wing giving the house even more character.
This book takes you outside so you can enjoy the outdoors within a patio, terrace, deck, balcony or dock but blending it with the house and the surroundings.
As for flooring, to me, these are the shoes of the house that transport you through the spaces. The impact of this feature is discussed as well as the walls and the ceilings to help you pull together your surroundings. Then, the book brings in the trim, doors and hardware.
If you are thinking about building a home or addition or even house hunting this book is a detail-lovers dream and a Chinese-menu of what you can do to make your home complete.
