These homes were once viewed as nothing more than modest, inexpensive shelters, lacking in any design aesthetic and offering only the basics required for habitation. This is no longer the case. Prefab design has emerged as a way for the design - and cost - conscious generation to achieve the dream of home ownership.

Tom 2 prezentuje ostatnie 250 lat rozwoju sztuki ogrodowej, czyli okres od połowy XVIII wieku do końca wieku XX. W Europie połowa XVIII wieku to czas odejścia od założeń ogrodowych, w których główną rolę odgrywała geometryzacja (w planie i bryle) i kształtowanie postaci ogrodu podporządkowanych budowli. To także okres, w którym inspiracje do kształtowania ogrodów stanowiła natura, czas tworzenia parków krajobrazowych. W tomie 2 opisane są także ogrody Chin i Japonii, których sposób kształtowania od początku niezmiennie wiązał się z wykorzystaniem wzorca natury. Poznanie sztuki ogrodowej Dalekiego Wschodu wpłynęło znacząco na kształtowanie założeń ogrodowych w Europie w XVIII wieku.
