Natural Houses

The Residential Architecture of Andersson-Wise

Arthur Andersson, Chris Wise

Natural Houses presents seven Andersson-Wise exquisitely crafted projects. Precise and cool, with forms often derived from the American vernacular of barns and cottages, these are painstakingly crafted houses made from regionally appropriate and aesthetically timeless materials. Natural Houses presents a range of sites and residences – from a small cabin in the woods to a multi-building camp.

Exceptional photography captures the light and atmosphere of each project setting and illustrates how the firm rigorously expresses the design concept through detailing and construction. An introduction by Rick Sundberg of Olson Sundberg Kundig Allen Architects and essays by Jen Renzi and Frederick Steiner chart the firm’s evolution and influences.
