""Originally published in 2006, this small but important book was the first to show five early houses by Interior Design Hall of Fame member Tom Kundig of Seattle's Olson Kundig Architects....In these early works Kundig shows himself to be a master of the highly personal concept for each client and topography as well as the congruent detail, an architect who is also an inventor, craftsman, and--in spirit--a sportsman. "" - Interior Design """"[Tom Kundig: Houses], originally released in 2006, celebrates five of Kundig's most finely crafted early residential projects. Presented from early concept through to completion, the schemes are the perfect embodiment of the cabin typology as displayed by the American architecture practice's powerful approach."" - Wallpaper (UK), ""
