Acclaimed architect Gil Schafer explores the intersection of classical architecture, interior decoration, and landscape to create homes that embody a sense of history. Specializing in building new "old" houses and renovating historic homes, Schafer seamlessly blends traditional elements with modern living preferences.
The book covers the key aspects of crafting a remarkable traditional house: architecture, landscape, and decoration. Schafer emphasizes the interconnectedness of interior architecture with furnishings, fabrics, and wall treatments. Through in-depth profiles, including Schafer's own residence, the book showcases the transformation of historic homes, revealing a harmonious blend of timeless design and contemporary living.
