A few months ago, I wrote a post about the David Wright House, an endangered Frank Lloyd Wright masterpiece in Phoenix. Well, with the New Year, comes new news. Good news, thankfully! More

Adaptive reuse is one of the best forms of creative and eco-friendly construction. Whether it's a former school house or church, buildings with a past life often make for some of the most interesting homes and interiors.
