The first book by the New Yorkbased AD100 architect Elizabeth Roberts compiles photographs, sketches, and even vignettes of fiction, to showcase her awardwinning workOver the past decades, Elizabeth Roberts Architects has built a practice of specificity. Whether breathing new life into a historic townhouse or imparting a sense of place into a groundup contemporary home, Roberts dissolves the boundaries between architecture, interior design, and objects. Her sensitive approach and timeless aesthetic have earned her firm not only wide acclaim and AD100 status, but also a devoted following.The 18 projects featured in this bookamong them chic city townhouses and brownstones, contemporary mountain retreats, and a restored country farmhouse, as well as commercial and cultural commissions, and ERAs designs for wallpaper and furniturereflect Robertss dedication to reframing the distinctions between history and modernity. Varied in their typologies, all are remarkable for being refined but warm, composed but informal, contemporary but enduring, qualities that have earned Roberts a clientele that includes Hollywood luminaries, celebrated fashion designers, and media moguls.Interspersed throughout the projects are handdrawn sketches; historical ephemera such as postcards, archival photos, and antique maps related to each site; and short fictional vignettes written by renowned novelist Christine Coulson, which add dimension, context, and surprise.

Honestly, I was a bit disappointed with 'Collected Stories.' I expected more depth in the architectural discussions. The stories were interesting, but I was hoping for a stronger connection to design principles.

A Must-Read for Architects
This book is a treasure! Roberts' unique perspective on architecture through personal anecdotes is brilliant. I bought it for my architecture class, and my students loved it. Every story felt so relatable and thought-provoking.

Great Stories, But Some Repetition
Elizabeth Roberts’ collection has some truly inspiring stories about architecture. However, I found a few pieces to be a bit repetitive. Still, it's a solid read for anyone in the field!
