This glossy, oversized paperback portfolio of new residential design in America concentrates on additions on and renovations to existing properties. All the works illustrated are in the modern idiom, proving that for these authors, at least, the nostalgic revivalism of postmodernism is "trad, dad." Published as part of the Whitney Library of Design, this book is aimed at the professional community of practitioners and clients. Few "name" architects are included; instead, Kim and Trulove (co-authors of The New American Cottage and The New American House 3) have chosen to highlight better, smaller regional firms around the country. Samples are shown from a variety of settings, such as a Greenwich Village residence and a mountain home in Aspen. The emphasis is on the contemporary, the photography is outstanding, and the selection is exciting (every page bursts with new ideas). Recommended. Peter Kaufman, Boston Architectural Ctr.
