Description
by Mark P. Finlay (Author)
Country Houses: The Architecture of Mark P. Finlay grants exclusive access beyond the stone walls and the guardhouses of affluent communities across the country, and invites readers into the manicured gardens and perfectly proportioned spaces of Mark P. Finlay's clients' houses.
What sort of home would you create for yourself if you could build whatever you wanted--if money, as they say, were no object? Over the course of his firm's 30-year history, American architect Mark P. Finlay has been in the privileged position of helping clients answer that very question. This first reprint and revised edition of Country Houses: The Architecture of Mark P. Finlay, originally published in 2018, showcases the dream homes Finlay has designed for some of America's wealthiest and most sophisticated families. The renowned architect and interior designer works in the United States' most storied pastoral locations, including the South Carolina lowlands, Virginia horse country, coastal New England, and the Rocky Mountains. Whether historic restorations or ground-up builds, Finlay's attention to detail and focus on fine craftsmanship make the magnificent homes look and feel as if they've lived on their sites for centuries. This beautifully presented monograph offers gorgeous photography of 12 superbly designed country residences. Each home is accompanied by an intimate, detailed architectural account that conveys Finlay's skill and passion for creating residences that telegraph a distinct sense of place and a unique appreciation for their owners' aspirations.Author Biography
