The Illustrated Home is a book published by Carson Dunlop with over 1,700 full color illustrations of house styles, construction details and systems components. Carson Dunlop partnered with Leanne Kroll to update the book with current house details and to provide new content for systems that were new to house designs, such as solar panels on roofs. Various completed projects include:
Project Challenge
With such a large scope of work, Carson Dunlop heavily relied on Leanne Kroll to manage the project efficiently by meeting timelines throughout. The revisions to original illustrations required a fine eye for detail in order to minimize the back and forth between illustrator and client. Establishing a process of communication for illustration briefing and reviews was key.
Project Solution
We broke the project into smaller pieces over time and to date have completed approx. 350 new and revised illustrations for The Illustrated Home. Working with the various sections of the book allowed us to complete one section first before proceeding with the next. All illustrations have common elements such as size, font, line weight and the new illustrations were required to match the older illustrations for consistency in style.

She enhances our work by being so easy to work with!” – Alan Carson, Carson Dunlop www.carsondunlop.com
