Book Review: The New City Home

May 1, 2002
Professional Builder

Everyone says cities are on the rise. It stands to reason, then, that the people moving there must have places to live. The New City Home: Smart Design for Metro Living from The Taunton Press is packed with design solutions for urban living that meet author Leslie Plummer Clagett’s four specifications: character, craftsmanship, nature and efficiency.

Although the profiled homes are not all new construction — some are renovations, apartments or lofts — the spectacular photos and design ideas apply to many types of homes.

The New City Home (hardcover, 224 pages) is available at www.housingzone.com/store or by calling Taunton at 800/477-8727.
