A multigenerational team of architects is extending the firm's founding philosophy--expressing both timeless and inventive perspectives on design. Showcased are beautifully photographed country estates, coastal retreats, and pastoral properties, all weaving the classical principles of symmetry, scale, and proportion with vernacular motifs and artisanal craftsmanship to create stylish and comfortable backdrops for contemporary living. Sophisticated interior decoration and stunning landscapes accompany the architecture, creating a harmonious sense of place. Through engaging stories that inform, Andrew Cogar shows how to reimagine the traditional home--whether an elegant Greek Revival pavilion, a chic Hamptons summer house, or a reinterpretation of a historic Charleston single house--to capture one's unique point of view. Visions of Home is an invaluable resource for those who enjoy the warmth and charm of traditional architecture.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>... gorgeous, and a must-buy for anyone passionate for architecture or design. --PORTOBELLO DESIGN <p/>Visions of Home highlights the impressive work of the Southern architecture and interior design firm Historical Concepts. --ELLEDECOR.COM<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Andrew Cogar</b> is the president of Historical Concepts, an architecture firm founded by <b>James L.
