From the Back Cover
Rocky Mountain Home is a celebration of traditional, comfortable homes--"usin' places"--that respect the mountain environment in which they reside. It's about creating an intimate and informal style, one as good as any in the world--and one distinctly American.
Presented here are the aesthetics of professional architects, builders, and decorators whose efforts are in keeping with the tradition of living in Rocky Mountain country rather than challenging the landscape. Their designs are respectful of pioneer traditions and reflect a certain modesty of scale and fine Rocky Mountain craftsmanship.
From the serenity of three-room retreats to a restored complex of buildings on the Busted Ass Ranch, author Elizabeth Clair Flood and photographer Peter Woloszynski sought out the most charming, the most stylish traditional mountain homes of thir dreams. Indeed, reading about the people and places in Rocky Mountain Home brings the fantasy of a cozy mountain hideaway to life.
Excerpt. © Reprinted by permission. All rights reserved.
One week into our trip, Peter and I stood on an empty highway in a downpour photographing Morton, Wyoming, population, five. An abandoned general store and hotel stood on the left, and an old ranch and an Episcopal church bordered the right. Before we had a chance to meet these five unique individuals, an enormous truck sped by, drenching us in a tidal wave of grimy freeway rain. Soaked, we sought shelter in our van and continued down the lonely highway, flanked by miles of sagebrush and gray showers.
