Several Good Ideas for My Project Here
I bought and then gutted a 1960s, three-story, 3,700 SF office building. Serving as my own architect and general contractor, I completed the two lower floors as offices for my professional engineering firm. I then turned my attention to converting the third floor into a luxury two-bedroom apartment.
Although my original intent was to make the apartment a rental space, family circumstances of a ...

Da Capo Press, 2006
good winter reading
This book makes wonderful winter reading-- as the fields lay buried in snow, we are reminded that warm weather and fresh food are not too far off.
Word of advice-- do not read prior to placing your seed order, or you may become too ambitious.

Not So Big Solutions for Your Home (Susanka)19 reviews
Sarah Susanka
Taunton, 2002
My house isn't so big. Where do I put everything?
The nice thing about this book is that it can be considered when you are thinking about building a new home, or considering remodeling your current home. And the remodel doesn't need to include a contractor. What if you have a window on a short wall, and think "Hey, I could put a bench seat there with bookshelves on either side to create a window seat!"
Those are the kinds of ideas I got ...

Sarah Susanka, Grey Crawford
Taunton, 2002
The antidote to the McMansion
Sarah Susanka, an architect orginally based in Minnesota, has written an extremely valuable book about creating comfortable living space in a small house. Until the recent housing crisis (and yes, even despite it among the super-rich) residential housing in this country was guided by the principal that "bigger is better". From an average house size of about 1,300 square feet during the housing ...

Big Secrets for Not So Little Girls
Miranda Shearer
Weidenfeld & Nicolson, 2007
In Miranda's words: 'The more emails I got from my little sister asking for advice on what to wear, make-up, boys, parties and alcohol, the more I thought about writing it all down. I started collecting funky flyers, cutting up magazines, drawing pictures and writing little passages, and the book got bigger and bigger. 'I realised that although I don't have the answer to everything, I have had to deal with many difficult situations in which I ...
