Born of modest beginnings, the traditional American domestic home design (large kitchen, family room, multiple bathrooms, etc.) has become one of the most copied designs around the world. "The Big Book of Traditional House Plans" presents more than 500 variations on the traditional house plan design in a variety of sizes from under 2,500 square feet to over 4,000 square feet. With full colour photography and artistic renderings of all the plans, this is a valuable resource for designers and builders (inc. self-builders) who wish to create something striking or "borrow" ideas for specific elements of their new house design.
