Coming in Spring 2026, this book is a toolkit, a memoir, and a call for sensitive renovation and engaged home ownership. It is an account of restoring a house without an architect but in close collaboration with craftsmen — the workers who often do not get to voice their opinions and expertise. The house, abandoned for 60 years, is now a living and welcoming home, thanks to the many hands and minds that collaborated on it.
