When designing the look of your house and garden you need to choose a theme that brings out the best features of both and carries the elements of colour and style from inside, through the transition areas - such as conservatories, patios, and entrance halls - and into the garden. Home and Garden Style describes in detail how to style both house and garden to achieve visual balance and create a completely integrated look.
Over twenty case studies have been selected from around the world - each one specially chosen to illustrate a particular style, be it classical or modern, urban or country. Using properties ranging from a city loft and a neo-classical villa to a traditional country cottage, each example shows how house and garden have been conceived as one design.
The book also takes a fascinating look at the development of integrated style over the centuries, examining how the concept of one style flowing from inside to outside has evolved from earliest civilizations to the twentieth century. A practical section discusses the elements that help to create a unified look in your own home. It focuses on how to treat design elements - including walls and windows, flooring, furnishings, pergolas and conservatories - to achieve design cohesion in your home and garden.
Illustrated throughout with stunning colour photographs, Home and Garden Style provides the inspiration and the practical details to achieve an indoor-outdoor style that really works. Vissza
