Description

By the author of "The Country House Book", "Christopher Wray's Guide to Decorative Lighting" and "The House Style Book", this book charts the history of fabrics and wallpapers, with specially commissioned photographs. The book is divided into six main chapters: texture, colour, abstract pattern, stylized pattern, flora and fauna and styles, comparing antique and contemporary designs and discussing the designer's influences and inspirations. It provides a record of early patterns and inspirations, details of where patterns came from, on what they were first based and how they were first used. - from Amzon
