(More customer reviews)This book made me aware of how visions of residential space has changed over the decades (such as the fact that family homes were often equipped with only two bedrooms). I enjoyed having the addresses on these homes listed in this paperback also -- now I can take an architectural tour on my own. More importantly, I learned the legacy of Arts & Architecture, the now defunct magazine that made the Case Study project possible.
