Dream House On the Prairie is an architect’s journey through several decades, with candid accounts of what went wrong—and what went right—in reconstructing a deteriorating century-old farmhouse. The author reflects on dealing with contractors, carpenters, and crafts persons, and the impact that various tumultuous construction projects had on the family. He recounts experimentations with passive solar design, natural ventilation, wind energy, geo-thermal systems, openings between living spaces, and extensive visual connections to the exterior.

Please note that the book comes in two different versions: one is an economically printed paperback and the other is a high-quality case-wrap hardcover version that features thicker paper and thus better reproduction fidelity than the paperback. Order links are below.
