Abstract:
The American Wood Council has built a 1978 Idea House in Raleigh combining new uses of wood in construction with the dignity and charm of early American architecture. The house, which is open to the public, was designed to duplicate a colonial period home in Deerfield, Massachusetts, the Dwight-Bernard house. The house illustrates the durability and versatility of wood.
