Overview

A consumer-friendly guide to do-it-yourself add-ons and other home improvement jobs, complete with architect-created plans.

In a tough economy, money becomes scarce, but life goes on and families keep growing. People who want and need more living space are often discouraged at the first step: the expense of hiring an architect to create a design which will blend into the existing house. This volume contains hundreds of professional plans that form a portfolio of ideas and easy-to-follow prototypes. 400 illustrations.
