Country living has evolved
into an international style that celebrates rural pleasures
and the simple life. Relaxed and informal, assured and
unpretentious, it offers an appealing refuge from day-to-day
stress. In Influential Country Styles, best-selling
interiors and antiques author Judith Miller looks at how
country traditions from around the world have influenced
home décor around the world. All the world’s varieties of
country style are included, from the rustic simplicity of a
spare American Shaker interior, to the comfortable clutter
of an English cottage; from the exuberance of a colorful
Mediterranean villa to the cool lines of a Scandinavian
farmhouse. Origins and development of each style, natural
resources and elements used, key characteristics, and
textiles, furniture, decorative arts, wall and floor
coverings, and more are examined--making each look both easy
to understand and easy to re-create in the reader’s own
home. Miller’s informative text, accompanied by full-color
photography, celebrates the warmth, simplicity, and spirit
of the rural tradition in interior design.
