The 30 houses have been chosen with a criteria of design excellence, innovation, appropriate materials and client satisfaction. Each case study includes interior and exterior photographs of the house, drawings including construction details of special features (fireplaces, staircases, custom furnishings, archways, columns, windows, wall sections, roof sections), and descriptive text about the design and technical aspects of the house, including materials and fabricators.
