“Atomic Ranch: Design Ideas for Stylish Ranch Homes,” by Michelle Gringeri-Brown with photos by Jim Brown, (Gibbs Smith, $39.95)
America has reignited its love affair with the country’s architectural stepchild, the ranch-style home, according to author Michelle Gringeri- Brown. She embraces the ranch for what it is while debunking claims that these so-called “cookie-cutter homes” lack the ingenuity of two-stories, bungalows or Spanish adobes. Numerous Colorado homes are featured in the book, which proves that midcentury models still have it going on, especially when they’re updated.
