Review Summary: Martha's Vineyard Plan Book
Date: 2002-03-28
Details: I purchased this item expecting to see architectual details for some of the fine Victorian houses in Martha's Vineyard. Instead, I was very disappointed to find out that it's an architectural firm's catalog listing plans to order.
Review Summary: There's no other home plan catalog like this
Date: 2000-04-27
Details: This plan catalog is unlike any other you'll find - it's a portfolio of designs that were originally created as custom buildings for architect James Weisman's clients. Unlike "stock" plans, these homes and outbuildings show the care of a good designer who listened to his customers and created unique buildings for their needs. They are also inspirational examples of how contemporary buildings can reflect the traditions of their place. The homes have balconies, lofts, lookouts, great spaces and unusual layouts that seem exciting and efficient at the same time. If you enjoy dreaming about a country home or a vacation getaway, you'll love this book.
