Family Home of the New West

Home is where your story begins, and being that today's families are different than they were even a decade ago, the story and the home are all new. The question, "What makes a family?" is not simple to answer. Neither is it easy to define what makes a home a "family home." Today families are blended, with stepchildren and grandparents sometimes living under the same roof, all with different needs. Let's not forget the dog and those who work from home, who all require functional, comfortable space. Low maintenance and practicality should never mean sacrificing good design. The West is the fastest growing area of the country, and the great style that the West is known for never goes out of fashion. From California, Arizona, Utah, New Mexico, Colorado and beyond, the new West is one where families of all shapes and sizes can find the workable home of their dreams. Full of beautiful photographs with informative design details, this book will become the cornerstone for creating the home your entire family can live in.
