In addition to quintessential bungalows, classic Spanish-style casas, and Tudor fantasies designed and built largely by anonymous master craftsmen, the book explores the possibilities that exist in a group of mostly unpublished gems by legendary architects Irving Gill, Richard Neutra, Rudolph Schindler, and Paul R. Williams. Each under 2000 square feet and primarily pre-war, and shown in brilliant new photography specifically commissioned for this book, these delightful abodes are models of rich diversity and inspired living.  Some homes featured are period-perfect time capsules, harkening back to the '20s, '30s, and '40s, while others are wildly re-imagined recreations that are entirely of today. In an age where many are downsizing, this book will be welcomed: a quality, small house is nothing if not manageable - it can be artfully livable, as well, as demonstrated here. While showcasing a mix of architectural styles, the book, at its heart, emphasizes light, bright, and inspiring interiors that are beyond distinct architectural styles and are filled with ideas for the home. The trend of reviving old houses will continue to grow steadily and this book will be inspirational for those looking to do it right.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49555989496081,"sku":"GOR006058384","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50120829763857,"sku":"CIN0847842312G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0847842312.jpg?v=1751455085"},{"product_id":"california-casa-book-douglas-woods-9780847838493","title":"The California Casa","description":"This sumptuous and comprehensive volume embraces one of the most beloved house forms, the Spanish Colonial Revival, presenting at once a lavish portrait of the style as well as the definitive statement on the subject through more than three hundred color photographs.   The Spanish style in architecture encompasses facets from a vast array of traditions, many of which are in evidence in these extraordinary houses. Elements include thickset, whitewashed stucco walls, deeply recessed doors, lushly planted courtyard gardens, intricate and colorful tile work, telescoping towers inset with Juliet balconies, elaborately traced wrought-iron window grilles, and richly appointed interiors heightened by drama in light and shadow cast by moody pendant lamps and low-burning fires. The houses featured are the very best of the type, both famous and little-known, and showcase the work of architects such as George Washington Smith, Bertram Goodhue, Wallace Neff, and Paul Williams, from the early twentieth century, to the work of contemporary practitioners, including Marc Appleton, Michael Burch Architects, and others. These homes are a fantasy for living made real in the Southern California sun.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":49795480355089,"sku":"CIN0847838498G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51008690323729,"sku":"NIN9780847838493","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ LIKE_NEW \/ SBYB","offer_id":51594630627601,"sku":"CIN0847838498LN","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":51716100260113,"sku":"GOR009701418","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0847838498.jpg?v=1750850512"},{"product_id":"tic-disorders-trichotillomania-and-other-repetitive-behavior-disorders-book-douglas-woods-9780387325668","title":"Tic Disorders, Trichotillomania, and Other Repetitive Behavior Disorders","description":"Now in softcover for the first time, the most comprehensive guide to behavioral treatment for these prevalent yet understudied disorders.   As upsetting as they are to clients, tics, trichotillomania, and oral-digital habits such as thumb-sucking and nail-biting tend to be resistant to traditional forms of therapy. The repetitiveness of their actions, however, makes these dissimilar disorders particularly receptive to behavioral treatment. Editors Woods and Miltenberger have assembled 22 therapist\/researchers to create a state-of-the-art resource for clinicians challenged by clients with repetitive behavior disorders (RBDs).  This book contains:   • Three complete treatment manuals explaining step-by-step therapy for tic disorders, trichotillomania, and oral-digital RBDs • Clear rationales for why behavioral methods are so effective for these disorders  • Guidelines for direct and indirect assessment  • Interventions for related RBDs, including bruxism, rumination, pica, and stuttering • A Separate chapter on treating RBDs in persons with developmental disorders   • Contact information for advocacy and educational groups   Recent studies have established the effectiveness of behavioral treatment for these disorders, and the re-issue of this book will continue to bring this important modality to the fore. While it is especially geared toward practitioners, the contributors have made Tic Disorders relevant to researchers and sufficiently accessible to be recommended to patients and their families as well.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50350085341457,"sku":"CIN0387325662G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52481080787217,"sku":"NLS9780387325668","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0387325662.jpg?v=1753786503"},{"product_id":"santa-barbara-book-douglas-woods-9780847842698","title":"Santa Barbara","description":"With all-new photographs of traditionally styled houses, from 1838 to today, in this extraordinary paradise on earth, this book celebrates a tradition in architecture and in living whose appeal has proven irresistible and with good reason. With its perfect climate and abundant California sunshine, Santa Barbara represents an enduring ideal and one that s happily real, and at hand. At its heart is the historic downtown, which features pristine white-washed Mediterranean-style stucco buildings with red tile roofs that harken back to the city s Spanish colonial heritage and the iconic Santa Barbara Mission of 1787, whose austere beauty set the tone for all that would later surround it. Known world-wide as the Santa Barbara style, the town epitomizes a type of building at once elegant and suffused with poetry, here kept in an extraordinary state of preservation. From its earliest days, the influence of this special place has been felt and has since radiated across the sunbelt; it remains to this day a model of emulation and inspiration. But it is the houses and the dream of living in Santa Barbara and its sister communities of Ojai, Carpenteria, Summerland, Goleta, and Montecito,  that casts the most profound spell.   Featuring a wide range of these houses, estates, and gardens, many previously unpublished and unphotographed, the book is a celebration of this wonderous eden. From the landmarked Rancho Santa Clara del Norte of 1838, with its beautiful classical gardens and evocative mountain views, to the traditionally styled contemporary treasure Villa Corbeau of 2006, the reader is at once surprised, delighted, and invited in.   The work of noted architects, including the legendary George Washington Smith and Lutah Maria Riggs, is featured beside that of charming anonymous builders. From historic treasures reinterpreted for today to contemporary interpretations of tradition, the book is, like Santa Barbara, a treasure to behold and a magical place within which one finds enchantment.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51626749755665,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":51626751394065,"sku":"NGR9780847842698","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51626751492369,"sku":"NIN9780847842698","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":52724659355921,"sku":"CIN084784269XG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/084784269X.jpg?v=1751454284"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/collections\/author-books-by-douglas-woods.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
