Recent generations of farmers have reinvented the family farm and
its traditions, embracing organic practices and sustainability and,
along with them, a bold new use of modern architecture. The New
Farm profiles sixteen contemporary farms around the globe,
accompanied by plans and colorful images that highlight the
connections among family, food, design, terrain, and heritage.
Visit a Tasmanian sheep shearers' quarters with a dramatic coastal
view and a bamboo-wrapped farm shed in Kentucky. Learn from a
fourth-generation poultry breeder and newcomers who have stepped
off the corporate ladder and into the barnyard. Projects include an
olive oil grove and mill in California, the storied Stone Barns
Center in New York, and organic farms in Canada and across Europe.
An introduction places the design of these farms in a lineage of
celebrated architects including William Wurster, William Turnbull,
Edward Larrabee Barnes, Marc Appleton, and Tom Kundig.
