From the Great Lakes to islets of the northwest, from backwoods cabins to coastal cottages and island hideaways, Cottage and Cabin features some of the most interesting architecture and interior design in North America. With evocative text by Linda Leigh Paul and spectacular, full-colour photography, this book is an affordable celebration of the best cottages and cabins. Explore picturesque seaside cottages, off-the-beaten-path rustic cabins, fantastic lakeside houses, private island abodes, and unique seaside retreats with the more than 300 images included in Cottage and Cabin. This book goes beyond the idea of the typical cabin or cottage to examine truly innovative designs. It explores in-depth the relationship between a structure and its surroundings. With structures built in the tradition of such greats as Frank Lloyd Wright, as well as young, up-and-coming architects, this book features cottages and cabins from the rugged and rustic to the comfortable and chic.
