Book Description
Light, airy, rooms...clean-lined wooden furnishings...richly patterned rugs and fabrics in colors inspired by nature.
William Morris was the first to champion the styles that remain quintessentially modern today. William Morris
and the Arts and Crafts Home is both a profile of this innovative tastemaker and a lavishly illustrated guide
to decorating with these ever-popular elements. Over 200 photographs capture the Arts and Crafts look, both in
Morris's own residences as well as in contemporary homes where the classic Morris aesthetic of simple beauty prevails.
Organized by element, chapters on the legendary patterned fabrics and wallpapers he designed, his artisan wooden
furniture, curtains and carpets, ceramics and metalwork all serve to illustrate Morris's unique vision. Informative,
engaging, and delightful to peruse, William Morris and the Arts and Crafts Home captures the beauty and
simplicity of these influential designs.
