4 Jim Olson Houses
Price: $78
Details: A glistening infinity pool nestled in a mountainside setting implores you to open the covers of this intriguing book on architecture. Jim Olson is a Seattle-based architect known for creating graciously proportioned modern homes in locales as disparate as Georgia, Hawaii and Hong Kong. This is the kind of coffee table book you’ll find a friend deeply immersed in and quite possibly drooling over when you return from the kitchen with a tea tray. Rectangular and slim, the sophisticated matte blue-and-slate cover colours of this tome will pair well with a stack of other books on just about any coffee table.
Who will love this: Architecture buffs (floor plans and sketches abound) and people who wish they lived in a gorgeous Pacific Northwest glass-and-wood house (calling all grown-up Twilight fans). It’s also great escapist fare for those stuck inside when the weather is bad, the cover will have you dreaming of a poolside dip.
