Architect Timothy S. Adams’s Tradition Made New: Houses with a Sense of Soul and History presents residences that feel instantly rooted yet unmistakably contemporary. Through plans, process sketches, and richly detailed photography, the book shows how proportion, craftsmanship, and regional materials can yield homes that age gracefully. Adams explains strategies for siting and massing, the choreography of entries and stair halls, and the quiet power of millwork, plaster, and stone. Interiors, developed with like-minded collaborators, favor natural light, layered textures, and a restrained palette that lets craft sing. Case studies range from urban apartments to country houses, each demonstrating how traditional forms—gables, porches, mantels—can be refined for modern life. Sidebars on tradespeople and techniques acknowledge the hands behind the work, while essays reflect on sustainability understood as longevity and adaptability. Rather than nostalgia, the book offers continuity: lessons borrowed from precedent and edited for today. For architects, builders, and homeowners seeking lasting beauty, Tradition Made New is both inspiration and practical guide, arguing that timelessness is not a style but a way of thinking.
