This book 'deconstructs' a single recently constructed house located in Seattle, WA, in an attempt to recover its backstory. The information is presented along four vectors atoms, labors, sources and ingredients.

We must even develop a stronger awareness of the history of atoms and how architecture brings that history into a remarkable focus.
