Synopsis

"Contemporary Country" is about taking the essence of country style - a way of living that is gentle, natural and grounded - and giving it a contemporary makeover. You don't have to live in the country to appreciate the lifestyle; its colours, textures and details look just as at home in urban spaces. Emily Chalmers and Ali Hanan begin by looking at the elements that make up the style. They explore the use of natural materials and the way in which structural features such as beams or staircases can be exposed so that living spaces flow together. They look at furniture, lighting, textiles, flooring and colour. The book then examines key areas of the home, from kitchens to sleeping spaces, and shows you how the look works with the help of over 200 inspiring photographs.
