Do you have a residential project so compelling and well designed that it oughta be in picturesor maybe even featured on TV? If so, Sarah Susanka, AIA, could use your help. Susanka, author of The Not So Big House, and Creating the Not So Big House, currently is working on her third book, From House to Home, to be published by Taunton Press. The new book hopes to take readers through a series of architectural concepts that can help turn any house into Home. In addition, Susanka is working with Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) on a series about residential architecture highlighting many of her books' concepts. This series is designed to heighten public awareness of the benefits of both architect-designed houses and architecture in general. For
both the book and the TV series, Susanka Studios is seeking well designed
residential projects that illustrate architectural concepts, including
(among hundreds): To minimize the number of locations for photo shoots, the studio hopes to select several projects that offer numerous examples of such architectural concepts. Projects of all budgets, scales, styles, and localities are needed. Owners must be comfortable opening their house to a film crew and be willing to sign releases for publication. (If a client wishes to remain anonymous, no personal names or locations need be used.) Susanka Studios currently is developing the photo shoot list for the book, which will be submitted in October or November, with final selections made by Decemberso submit your projects soon.
