Artists' Handmade Houses
Ever wonder what an artist's home would look like if he or she were the mind behind it? This month, Abrams has published a stunning new coffee table book that peeks inside the abodes of 13 well-known, American craftspeople who built their homes themselves. Appropriately titled Artists' Handmade Houses, the book features beautiful images by Don Freeman and text by Michael Gotkin. Here we look at the homes of Russel Wright, Paolo Soleri, and George Nakashima.

Ah, I've been pining away for a natural wood table like the one in #9. (Get it, "Pining!")
Have had the pleasure of touring this house and it is truly amazing, thanks for including it. Love the way the inside and outside become one.
