A really amazingly comprehensive book, written for both British and North American homeowners / decorators. Thoughtful consideration of authenticity (original tiles from a demolished French chateau, although not strictly authentic outside of France, fit into the narrative of wealthy British and Americans importing materials from Europe) and possible issues with buildings of particular eras. In my current factory-built 1970s prefab, it's not particularly necessary to own such a book, but the hundreds of beautiful colour photographs and the wealth of information make it difficult to part with it.

The key to successful restoration of any period is finding the right details - whether original or reproduction. This sourcebook seeks to supply the answers. Both town and country style homes from 1600 to 1900 are covered, with greatest emphasis on the most commonly renovated period house: the 19th-century dwelling. Advice on how to date your house correctly is followed by a detailed examination of every aspect of interior fixtures and fittings - from large fixtures such as doors and windows to small details such as hinges and light switches. Exterior details are also featured. Advice on buying and restoring original items complements the gallery of reproduction products. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
