The forthcoming monograph The Tudor Home (Rizzoli, $60) explores how the popular architectural style has evolved in the U.S. Author Kevin D. Murphy, chair of art history at Vanderbilt University, explains that the asymmetry of the homes, with their pitched gables and timbered-and-stuccoed façades, made it easy for modern families to tack on additions. The use of the style throughout America is documented in 270 images by architectural photographer Paul Rocheleau.
