Reviews
There are about as many versions of vintage as there are types of fabrics. So British textile firm proprietor Strutt audaciously promotes her vintage as one of the real things, backed by acres of colorful interior and exterior photographs. Consider the text as accompaniment; in truth, lessons are learned more by the visuals than the words. On the other hand, each chapter imparts at least one decorating tip; living room design, for instance, must take into account the comfort of its residents rather than aesthetics. On the whole, colors should reflect creams and yellows, greens and browns, not the psychedelic hues beloved by such designers as Tricia Guild. And there is absolutely no harm in mixing to one's heart's delight a cheery combination of fabrics, of furniture styles, and of accessories. Expect few instructions, but many visual ideas.
