Rich history. Beautiful designs. How the environment can mirror cultural context and truly be a work of art.

one of my top 5 reasons for watching a ton of movies set in the 70s 80s and 90s is seeing the set design, so this book is candy to me. it's a fun guide to where a lot of home design tropes started as well. some of the homes are stunning, some of them are stunningly ugly, many of them made me wonder how cold they really were in the winter or how dark it really was in the mezzanine/walled off bedrooms, most of them made me feel jealous of the space and freedom of budget and design the owners/architects (usually one and the same) had.
