The Summer House: Lakeside Cottages, Seaside Retreats, and Country Idylls
Showcasing a dozen iconic summer houses in the USA, this gloriously illustrated book captures all the nostalgia and romance of these seasonal treasures. The homes range in style, vintage, and location, but each connects with the landscape in a distinct way. Some of the homes belong to designers; some are family escapes. They include Sister Parish’s family retreat in Islesboro, Maine; designer Ken Fulk’s Provincetown escape; and the modern farmhouse of Ashe Leandro’s Ariel Ashe on Martha’s Vineyard.
