New Asian Home,the Kendra Langeteig 1st edition

The New Asian Home affirms that we have a desire to transcend our stressful world by employing Asian design concepts to make home a peaceful sanctuary. Asian design has strong appeal for those looking for ?natural? alternatives to Western home standards?open floor plans, exposure of structural elements, emphasis on natural forms and materials in harmony with the site, and greater transparency between indoor and outdoor space. The New Asian Home features twenty-three interesting and innovative homes, including custom-built homes, modest handcrafted structures by master craftsmen, and affordable modular homes.

Project locations include: San Francisco, CA Princeton, NJ Telluride, CO Napa Valley, CA Salem, MA Oahu, HI Milbrook, NY Santa Barbara, CA Long Island, NY Mt. Rainier, WA Puget Sound, WA
