OverviewDream House on the Prairie is an architect's journey through several decades, with candid accounts of what went wrong-and what went right-in reconstructing a deteriorating century-old farmhouse in the midwestern United States. The author reflects on dealing with contractors, carpenters, and crafts persons, and the impact that various tumultuous construction projects had on the family. He recounts experimentations with passive solar design, natural ventilation, wind energy, geo-thermal systems, openings between living spaces, and extensive visual connections to the exterior.
