Love this book! I've followed their blog for a few years and love their style! This book shows what they've accomplished in creating an amazing little "farm" in Ojai, CA. The pictures are of high quality and the text is very helpful in understanding their goals and how they achieved them. An excellent book if you're interested in architecture, gardening, home decor, and all that goes with living an artistic life..
