The iconic house, as children draw it, is freestanding. It has a peaked roof and one door. But as Ledoux, Le Corbusier, van der Rohe, Melkinov and Libera draw it, the peaks and doors and ideas multiply. These playful reimaginings, each stamped with the personality of architect, client and site, translate the universal concept of the single-family dwelling into new architecture--buildings with outstanding identification value. A document, an album and an inspiration, Villas and Country Houses raises the possibility that the application of creative, individualist design lies within reach for more architects, builders and clients than might believe so.
