Back to the Cabin: More Inspiration for the Classic American Getaway

<p></p><br /><p><strong>A yearning for smaller homes...simpler times!</strong> Architect and renowned “cabinologist” Dale Mulfinger rekindles our love of the iconic American cabin in <strong><em>Back to the Cabin</em></strong>. This latest book picks up where his best seller, <em>The Cabin</em>, left off, engaging readers with fresh insights and strategies for designing a contemporary cabin with all the charm of yesteryear.</p><br /><p><strong>Renewing America’s long love affair with cabins.</strong> From rustic bungalows to log cabins, the bare-bones getaway house provides families with a sense of freedom from the everyday and the camaraderie of living close in shared spaces. In stark contrast to today’s hi-tech world, cabin living is uncomplicated and basic – another reason spurring interest in these cozy shelters.</p><br /><p><strong>A collection of 37 cabins – all different, all appealing.</strong> These cabins recapture an old-world spirit of simple living, when the mudroom was entry enough for all and burning wood was for more than just ambiance. Others are more surprising – the “new” cabin that blends old-time simplicity with modern must-haves, cabins that come packaged as kits, cabins built from recycled materials, and others that are “just for fun.”</p>
