Reviews

"If you yearn for a place that can truly shape your life story, this book will help you find your way."

Jeff Echols, AIA, Vice President Community Development of EntreArchitect

“Architects often write for other architects, but Supersizing Bliss is devoted to architecture’s inhabitants. Witte’s book offers insights into many of the little-known frustrations, desires, and dreams architects have for the built environment. The accessible book is a kind of annotated love letter to architecture, written by an architect, to all occupants of houses.”

Blaine Brownell, FAIA LEED AP, Professor and Director, David R. Ravin School of Architecture, UNCC

“Witte excavates desire with a sincerity that is the sexiest stalwart of design. He doesn’t merely appease. He psychically sketches, etches, and constructs the metaphorical and enveloping chaise lounge where his clients would choose to languish….forever.”

John W. Love, Jr., Interdisciplinary Artist, Guggenheim Fellow

"I'm twenty years into my journey as a residential architect and Supersizing Bliss gave me a new framework for identifying what matters. Toby is like that great teacher who makes complex ideas simple. Supersizing Bliss is a must-read for future homeowners and their architects!"

Kyle Barker, AIA, NCARB, Architect, Founder and Principal of Primary Projects
