Note: this book is harder to find as everyone loves theirs so much they don't sell them. Handmade Houses: A Guide to the Woodbutcher's Artby Art Boericke, Barry ShapiroSee the other wonderful, little known books by the same authors, shown below. ISBN: 0891040013 Publisher: A & W Pub Publish Date: 01 February, 1985 Note from Charmaine: One of my favorite books of all time! Motivated me to shingle the heck out of my work studio to improve its looks. [ it worked! ] and now I will be shingling more of my house and craft studio too. The book is color photos, without building instruction, artful homes which reveal use of recycled and free materials, old windows, wood slices, thicj cut shakes, and winding stairs, walls at all angles, tree houses, retreats and meditation spaces. A true flavor of the 1970's, and all things possible by the youthful, creative owner builder. See this one- not by Art, but just as great! Woodstock Handmade Houses .. the original, New York state' hippe' town of amazing homes- a NEW book, in color. Photos from inside the book: shows a child's play house, note thick wood slices as step stones in front. JUST ONE SOFTCOVER EDITION left. This one is slightly worn and well loved. I try to find hardcover books, but they are not usually available. Book is complete, just the cover and backside a bit scuffed and light wear from decades in print. |
