California cottages are famed for their openness and creatively designed interiors. This magnificent tribute brilliantly show-cases the variety of styles that belong to that tradition. Splendid photographs, taken by a prominent architectural photographer, present Pioneer, Queen Anne, Spanish Colonial Revival, Craftsman, and English and Tudor revival homes. Take a look these examples and see exactly what makes cottages different from other houses, how to make the most of their beauty, and what effect this building style has on creating a community. Some of the cottages have been restored and preserved, others are preserved and expanded, and still more are delightfully innovative remodels. All of them will inspire fresh ideas for decorating in small spaces, for gracing every square foot with lovely details, and for introducing elements that will bring magic into any cozy home.
