Most architecture & interior books show houses polished to perfection, manicured to the extent that it is hard to imagine anybody acually lives there: they seem to miss the point that homes are meant to be inhabited. They should be able to take the scuffs & knocks & to be part of a community, whether in a Chicago skyscraper or on Australia`s sunshine coast. So where are the best places to make a home? What are the villages, coastlines, mountains, towns, & cities that would make you want to settle down?

The book is a survey of everything you need to know to build the residence of your dreams, providing insight into the best neighborhoods, architects, & makers all over the world. From design-store owners to green-roof gardeners, The Monocle Guide to Cosy Homes introduces you to interesting people with ideas that are built to last.
