Founded by Leigh and Kevin Misso, the firm has redefined the traditional design-build model into a far more ambitious and holistic philosophy of integration. Every project begins with a singular vision in which structure, interiors and everyday living are thoughtfully interwoven from the earliest sketch. This book welcomes readers into the intersection of craftsmanship and story. Each home is shaped as both a sanctuary and a narrative, a composition of beauty, balance, and belonging. River Brook’s work lives in the delicate space where history and modernity meet, honouring the soul of the past through the artistry of the present. Above all the firm’s vision is simple: to transform houses into homes where life unfolds with warmth, grace and purpose. The firm’s philosophy, “Living with Legacy,” reflects its commitment to creating homes that honour the past while shaping the present. Homes composed with enduring craftsmanship. Effortless proportion and beauty that feels both timeless and liveable. At the heart of Living with Legacy<\/em><\/strong> is the overarching theme: “Designing What Endures.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

In this first monograph on the design firm River Brook, owners Leigh and Kevin Misso, along with their team, present an overview of their major residential projects.
