River Brook - Living with Legacy (pre-order)

From its home in Alabama, USA, River Brook has established a distinctive voice in residential design by uniting architecture, interiors, and construction into a single, collaborative vision. Founded in 2016 by husband-and-wife team Leigh and Kevin Misso, the family-owned firm creates homes defined by timeless design, craftsmanship, and enduring quality.

In this new monograph, Living with Legacy, River Brook presents an intimate collection of fifteen residential projects that reflect the firm's holistic approach to architecture, interiors, and construction.

Through richly photographed homes and thoughtful narratives, the book invites readers into spaces where exceptional craftsmanship, timeless design, and meaningful storytelling converge. Each residence is conceived as both a sanctuary and a living narrative—a place where beauty, balance, and belonging shape everyday life.

River Brook's work exists in the delicate space where history and modernity meet, honoring the character of the past while embracing the possibilities of contemporary living. Guided by a deep respect for proportion, materiality, and authenticity, every project reflects a commitment to enduring design rather than passing trends.

Living with Legacy celebrates River Brook's philosophy of creating homes that are elegant yet livable, refined yet deeply personal. By seamlessly integrating architecture, interior design, and construction under one vision, the firm crafts residences defined by restraint, integrity, warmth, and a lasting sense of place.

Beautifully bound in linen, this coffee-table volume offers an inspiring portrait of homes designed to be cherished for generations.
