This beautifully illustrated book casts a fresh look at the new country style, which combines time-honored objects and traditional styles with a new versatility and natural look. This style of decorating is easily adapted to any house, rural or urban--it's just a matter of focusing on comfort, conviviality, and a combination of traditional, personal, and at times eclectic objects. 175 full-color illustrations.
Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From Library Journal
Rather than "perfect" country rooms, O'Reilly, a design writer who frequently contributes to Perspectives on Architecture, examines the "new" country look, which has a spareness, restraint, and playfulness unlike the more fussy country look that has been popular recently. With a multitude of beautiful photographs, she describes the look room by room, using examples from centuries-old homes as well as modern ones found in the United States and Europe. Here the country style is presented in a way that gives a fresh, updated feel that will be welcome in all types of interior design collections.
