    Alternate Title: How to Read Modern Houses
  

*by J***N on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 8, 2015*

Rizzoli Int'l Pubs. put together a very attractive book.  The photos and drawings are very well done.  By the time I read through the first 15 pp. something felt "wrong".  The book begins by defining "types" of homes as single story, multiple story, attached, and detached; with a modern example of each "type" and one or more examples of poorly defined traditional hybrids (ie. Gothic-Georgian).  By pp. 30 the author's bias against pre-Modernism became increasingly noticeable.Regardless of whether the topic is building materials or interior design, the one style that is always represented is Modern.  And when a pre-Modern style is mentioned it is often accompanied with a remark of a negative connotation.If one wants a book that understands and conveys the various attributes of pre-Modern house styles, this is not it.  If one is looking for a book that pays homage to Modernism and its detraction of all that came before it, this book will not disappoint.  In case of the latter, one may want to also consider the author's other works: Modern Architecture in New York (2002); Unbuilt Masterworks of the 21st Century (2009); Architects Sketchbook (2011).

### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Nice idea, but could use more common examples.
  

*by J***H on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 3, 2017*

Many of the houses in this book seem to be extreme and rare examples of the designs they represent. It helps when learning the concepts and the themes of house style. However, I am interested in identifying the style of houses that I encounter in my community. It would be helpful to have actual real-world examples of more common houses that I don't have to drive to Europe or New England to see.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

*by T***R on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 7, 2019*

This is perfect for on the go, exactly what I needed.
