50 US Architects: Residential + Planning is published by Design Book and is written by Damir Sinovcic, editor of Design Book Magazine and 100 Florida Architects & Interior Designers book. This informative and beautifully illustrated, 11" by 11" hardcover book celebrates the work of the American residential architect!

This publication presents a curated collection of award-winning residential and master planning work from leading American designers. Meticulously detailed and site-specific, the featured projects focus on sustainability, technology, and the human spirit. They reflect ideologies and philosophies that are rooted in the Modernist doctrine or distilled from vernacular precedents.

From Alabama to Wyoming, each state in the country is represented with designs that are intended to showcase a sense of place through concept, craftsmanship, and material selection. Demonstrating a profound understanding of local history, natural environments, and regional traits, these projects - also responding to particular climates, light patterns, views, topographies, or other site-based factors - reflect their physical and cultural milieus. While individually, they express the character of a specific geographic setting or state, together they form a portrait of exemplary contemporary American residential design.
