Family Matters, Annie House, Bercy Chen, Briggs Home (113L)Here are two dwellings designed with the family in mind — an Austin, Texas, place that's two homes in one and a flexible house in Rowayton, Conn., that stretches to fit a family of 38.
Plus, wallpaper and fabric coverings in patterns and prints designed for the modern world and the East-West fusion behind Isamu Noguchi's Akari lamps.
