Elizabeth Roberts Architects: Collected Stories

The first book by the New York–based AD100 architect Elizabeth Roberts compiles photographs, sketches, and even vignettes of fiction, to showcase her award-winning work.

The 18 projects featured in this book — among them chic city townhouses and brownstones, contemporary mountain retreats, and a restored country farmhouse, as well as commercial and cultural commissions, and ERA’s designs for wallpaper and furniture — reflect Roberts’s dedication to reframing the distinctions between history and modernity. 

Interspersed throughout the projects are hand-drawn sketches; historical ephemera such as postcards, archival photos, and antique maps related to each site; and short fictional vignettes written by renowned novelist Christine Coulson, which add dimension, context, and surprise.
