George Vanderbilt commissioned architect Richard Morris Hunt to help design his North Carolina home. To accomplish building a European chateau in rural North Carolina, Hunt focused on efficiency. The land in front of the home site was transformed into a mini-town with buildings and small factories that produced materials necessary for the construction of the house. An on-site kiln produced up to 32,000 bricks daily, and a woodworking factory supplied oak and walnut for the house’s floors and wal

Over a century ago, renowned landscape architect, Frederick Law Olmsted, transformed the acreage around Biltmore House from overworked woodland to the lush, natural landscaped experienced today. Intended to evoke a sense of mystery while creating the "...sensation of passing through the remote depths of a natural forest," the three-mile Approach Road that meanders from Biltmore Village up to Biltmore House is the result of a very intentional and complex design by Olmsted. | Biltmore
