Synopsis

Gracious residences that enjoy exceptional views, privacy, and the absence of air pollution and urban noise are brought together in this handsome volume. Hundreds of photographs spread glorious dwellings before viewers, giving a close look at diverse mountain architecture and lifestyles in Europe, Asia, and the United States. Nestled in precipitous terrain, on snowy perches, amid alpine landscapes, and in other breathtaking settings, the homes bear the distinctive design characteristics of their countries-France, Spain, Switzerland, Germany, Chile, Japan, and others. American mountain locales include Colorado, Vermont, and Nevada. An informative resource for professional or student architects and interior designers, this collection also offers owners of mountain homes of all sizes and styles fresh design ideas specifically meant for dwellings in nature's most lofty settings.
