The Cabin Book

Great book. Good Seller. Very satisfied.

Nice coffee table book. Some beautiful pictures. I would have liked more pictures an house plans an a little more unique houses to look at but that is just a personal preference. Book was in good condition. prompt postage.

perfect

I just received this book in the mail from Amazon. It is wonderful, it is art. It is everything and much, much more. If you want to get design ideas for a crafted cabin of quality, THIS IS THE BOOK!

Bella rassegna fotografica di splendide case di vacanza.Dalla tipica casa di montagna al moderno modulo abitativo. C'è di che scegliere.

If you're looking for a book of cabins, look elsewhere. About 2/3 of the book is modern homes, sheetrock walls, with some wood accents. Very little on real cabins in this book. At least not the all American, woodsy cozy home.

A well designed book with nice photography, but as another reviewer mentions, the title is a misnomer. These are high-end, architecturally-designed buildings, made with big money. The introduction mentions Frank Lloyd Wright's cabins, so that should give you an idea of the genre of these buildings -- cabins for millionaires.The author writes about cabins reconnecting people with nature, but most of these buildings would be an interference to that end: getting back to nature is not about smothering yourself in luxury. Some of the descriptions are informative, others are a bit fluffy. She quotes Gary Snyder, but these buildings don't walk his talk, not by a long shot.

This book shows a good number of styles of architecture for the cabin from small and compact to large and lodge-like. Enjoyable from start to finish.
