If you grew up in postwar America, chances are you lived in or next to a ranchstyle house. And the things we loved about ranches when we liked Ike are still attractiveperhaps more sotoday: the liberation that comes with openplan living, the casual feel of easy kitchen access, the comfort of having bedrooms and children near at hand, the convenience of onelevel living, and the everyday luxury of smooth indooroutdoor flow. So its no surprise that the ranch is in style againand this book showcases the best of it. Whether that style is the midcentury modern of Corbusier and the Eameses, or the crosscultural awareness of the sixties, or the Pop Art and plastic of the seventies, Ranch House Style offers inspiration and instruction on recreating these looks in your own home.But this book isnt just for style mavens with professional decorators. Because if theres any one completely American, democratic architectural style, its the ranch house. Ranches, in all their glory (and sometimes utter lack of it), are everywhere, usually affordable, just waiting for the right shag carpet to restore their hipness, the right fleamarket find to liven up that patio. And Ranch House Style shows howwith examples of the ranchs flexibility for any decorating style, from Victorian and French Country to thoroughly contemporary, from primary homes in the suburbs to vacation getaways on the shore, from vintage gems to newly built originals. It also shows how to solve the special challenges that come with onestory living in a decadesold house, including how to expand into todays more spacious footprints, how to renovate for modern amenities, and how best to use the ranchs typically large plot of land.Remarkably, there hasnt been a book on ranches available in decades. Despite the millions that exist across the entire country, the ranch has been ignored by the highdesign community. To address that insult to ranch lovers, Ranch House Style also includes thoroughly researched, authoritative material on the styles history, sociological context, architects, designers, and furniture. This is a serious work that stands alone in its field, in addition to being a beautiful, inspirational, and practical decorating book.So come visit the ranchboth the remarkably familiar and the strikingly original, from modest to luxurious, in styles from charming to modavailable in neighborhoods everywhere, here showing in all its coolness.
