Synopsis
The new edition of The Victorian House Book, the fourth, has been fully revised and brought up to date, with additional text and a re-organized technical chapter. Written by Robin Guild, one of Britain's most successful interior designers, the book explains how to modernize your house while preserving the original architectural features. It takes you through every room, describing all the fixtures and fittings, and helps you decide which jobs to do and in what order to do them. More than 500 colour photographs illustrate the creative design ideas. The detailed practical guidance is broken down into 57 topics covering all aspects of alteration, conversion and decoration, supported by 1,500 specially commissioned line drawings. A comprehensive directory lists the names and addresses of manufacturers and suppliers across the country. "The Victorian House Book" reveals how to make the most of a building by working with the architecture, not against it.
