About this Item

Hardcover. New book in dust jacket. Hard. Phillips, B. CARPET STYLE. A COMPREHENSIVE STYLE-BY-STYLE DIRECTORY TO CHOOSING THE RIGHT CARPET FOR YOUR HOME. 1997, 159 p., about 300 color illus., 26 x 26 cm. A survey, with the usual advice on types and how to buy, but with a focus on the role of carpets in interior design and how to adapt carpets and your home to each other; there are thus also brief sections on European carpets, Navajo rugs, and art deco and arts & crafts carpets. Since the focus is on interior design, the vocabulary is not always correct: a suzani is described as a Bokhara carpet. And this is an interior design book for the well-off - many of the examples are 19th century and in good shape.
