Until now, homeowners have had to choose between the twin
worlds of budget-friendly mediocrity and unaffordable
fantasy. Responding to this gap, acclaimed architect Duo
Dickinson demonstrates that a custom house doesn't depend on
a fabulous price tag. House on a Budget, originally
published in hardcover as The House You Build, is about a
third way of building grounded in the realities of time and
money, but focusing on your fondest hopes and dreams. He
offers 19 real-world situations where unique and imaginative
homes were built on real-life budgets.
Duo's Rules
for Getting What You Want (and Can Afford)
1.Use Standard
Materials Creatively
2.Shrink to Fit
3.Don't Fight the
Site
4.Take Your Time
5.Defer and Save: Building in
Phases
6.Take Charge: Spending Time to Save Money
