A continuation of Lloyd Kahn’s journeys into the creative
processes of owner-built homes — their innovative
techniques, use of sustainable materials, and essential
dedication to the natural elements surrounding their designs
— Builders of the Pacific Coast explores the aesthetics and
skills of three master builders in California, Washington
state, and the rugged terrain of British Columbia. The three
featured craftsmen — Lloyd House, Bruce Atkey, and Sun Ray
Kelley — combine imaginative architecture with innovative
contexts: everything from unusual house-boats to sculptural
dwellings made of driftwood are included. With stunning
color and black-and-white photographs, as well as detailed
black-and-white drawings of the homes, this collection of
unique and progressive designs creates a template for a
future filled with forward-thinking architecture.
