The Art of Building a Home: A Collection of Lectures and Illustrations
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book challenges conventional notions of home design and decoration prevalent at the turn of the 20th century. The author, a practicing architect, critiques the uninspired and often impractical house designs of the time, advocating for a return to simplicity, functionality, and true artistic expression. He emphasizes the importance of considering the needs and individuality of the occupants when designing a house, rather than conforming to societal expectations and trends. He further argues that beauty should be an integral part of everyday life, not merely an afterthought or superficial embellishment. The book delves into various aspects of home design, including room layout, furniture, and decoration. It encourages the use of natural materials, handcrafted elements, and bespoke furniture that complements the specific function and character of each room. The author's vision extends beyond mere aesthetics, advocating for homes that foster a more authentic and fulfilling way of life. By embracing simplicity, functionality, and artistic integrity, this book suggests that we can create homes that are not only beautiful but also conducive to personal growth and well-being. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9780243417537_0
