A comprehensive reference to the style of the 19th-century Arts and Crafts movement, with its hallmark simple designs, modern function, beautiful materials and honest craftsmanship. This guide is aimed at interior designers, collectors, and those wishing to recreate the overall look in their homes.
With its hallmark simple designs, modern function, beautiful materials and honest craftsmanship, it is no wonder that the Arts and Crafts style remains an enduring cornerstone of design and the decorative arts. This comprehensive reference guide is aimed at interior designers, serious collectors, and intended as a source of inspiration and practical advice for those interested in recreating the Arts and Crafts style in their homes. You can use this book to spark your imagination with photographs of authentic and modern Arts and Crafts rooms. It also displays the many elements and style options that make up the Arts and Crafts home - wall treatments, carpets and flooring, fabrics, furniture, fixtures and ornaments. The guide features lists of suppliers, and houses where visits may be arranged to see the style in context.

Charlotte Kelley works as a picture researcher and in-house writer for the Bridgeman Art Library in London.
