I'm familiar with some of these houses, but I gained new insight on the history and architectural characteristics of these country homes by readiing the text. Filled with outstanding photographs, I enjoyed browsing for hours. I strongly recommend this book !!

This review is from: Casa de Hacienda: Architecture in the Colombian Countryside (Hardcover)
This book is a wonderful testimony to what was once a lovely quality of life in Colombia's vast countryside. Some photographic essays boast of majestic architectural beauty. Still and all, the most important aspect of this book is that the camera's lens objectively captures the serene beauty and vitality of Colombia's regional richness. Moreover, the fine and creative presentation of some Hacienda's are absolutely breathtaking. "Casa De Hacienda: Architecture in the Colombian Countryside," is a polished presentation of professional photography. It is much more than a coffee table book...it is a slice of life in Colombia.

This review is from: Casa de Hacienda: Architecture in the Colombian Countryside (Hardcover)
We have this book in our home and in our office. There is a strict no drooling rule when visitors leaf through it. Bibs are mandatory. It features the best of Nueva Granada architecture, fixed up for modern living. Those folks knew and know how to live, and I am bound and determined to have a hacienda just like some of them in this book one day. You will not be disappointed with this book and the photography in it, which in my opinion is superior to many other architecture books I have seen.
