Look/Books: Foundations

Cowgirl’s Book Editor Chris Enss raves about the new JLF Architects book Foundations in her summer reviews of recently released titles for the magazine. “The beautifully photographed book fo­cuses on the traditional materials JLF uses when creating home designs, and the finished product is a mixture of elegant simplicity and rustic charm,” Enss writes. “Foundations is lavish, informative, and an inspired col­lection of houses with floorplans open to spectacular views of magnificent mountains, glistening rivers, and vast horizons. Fans of timber framing and natural stone will be particularly impressed with the blend through­out each home.”
