WILLIAM MORRIS AND THE ARTS AND CRAFTS HOME (PB)

Pamela Todd's book celebrates William Morris's genius, presenting a thorough overview of his life and career, while setting out his guiding principles so that a modern audience can recreate the Arts and Crafts style in their own homes. A series of 'Case Studies' explores six contemporary houses - from a modern London townhouse to a traditional Arts and Crafts home in Massachusetts - that have followed and adapted Morris's dicta, brilliantly demonstrating how the style can be applied to our environment today. This definitive sourcebook concludes with a comprehensive style-sourcing section, as well as a gazetteer of places to visit for inspiration
