Inspired by History
Russell Versaci is an architect and author of the best-selling book, Creating a New Old House (Taunton Press/AIA 2003). His architectural studies at the Harvard Graduate School of Design and the University of Pennsylvania School of Fine Arts fired his conviction that history provides the creative inspiration for new homes of timeless character.
“For twenty years we have been in the practice of recreating tradition. We rummage
through the attic of architecture to find treasures that will inspire us. By measuring
old buildings we discover the secrets to their composure and craftsmanship. Then
we create original designs by making something new out of something very old.”
