Transcending Tradition

<b>In their first book with Rizzoli, Harrison Design, the nationally renowned architecture and design firm, invites readers into a world of timeless architecture imbued with Southern warmth and hospitality.</b><br><br>Celebrated for more than thirty years, Harrison Design is recognized for creating inviting homes that embody gracious living and embrace the needs of a contemporary lifestyle. Rooted in the principles of classical architecture—balance, scale, harmony, and refined proportion—the firm reinterprets these traditions through a modern lens in homes across the country. Their work blends enduring styles such as English manor, Palladian villa, and Spanish Revival with regional vernacular motifs, resulting in homes that feel at one with the landscape. Each residence reflects the belief that classical design is a living, evolving art form that speaks beautifully to modern life.<br><br>This volume highlights ten exceptional retreats across Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, Virginia, and the California coast. These homes reveal Harrison Design’s mastery of form, scale, and flow, especially through its use of materials such as masonry, stucco, wood, and glass that revel in the sunlight to enhance interiors shaped and crafted for everyday living. Every project begins with a deep understanding of how each individual family will inhabit the space, allowing the architecture, landscape, and interiors to work seamlessly together.  <br><br>Founded in Atlanta with six offices nationwide, Harrison Design captures the warmth, hospitality, and sense of place essential to creating a lasting home. This book is for everyone who celebrates tradition reimagined for today and designed to last for generations.
