So, what's new in architecture around here? Environmentally sustainable round houses, floating box houses, new houses that look like their old neighbors --- that's what. In the newest Home Design, we profile three architects who --- whether their designs are contemporary, modern, or contextual --- are adding creative, striking, and friendly homes to our area. Their creations are one-of-a-kind, but every one draws on regional inspiration: our modernist heritage, our environment and climate, our beautiful old homes and neighborhoods.
When the empty corners of your home need filling, you can go to the mega stores, or you can choose from innovative and beautiful furniture being handmade right around town. And kids can take an interest in home design, too, especially when the design is a town of treetop playhouses. Peek and see: Clever people all around us are thinking up fresh places for us live, rest, and play.
