If these walls could speak... The greatest challenge in designing
homes is negotiating the delicate balance between aesthetics and the
personal desires of the occupants. While it's important for the
structure to reflect the vision and style of the architect, the
client must ultimately feel at home beneath the roof. It is
particularly interesting, therefore, to examine the homes that
architects create for themselves. If houses reflect their owners'
personalities, then architects' own homes are like autobiographies.
Location, layout, style, lighting, artwork, furnishings--every detail
adds color to the story. Each of these 100 dwellings, presented A-Z
by architect, speaks more about its designer than any other building
possibly could.
