With its detailed practical reference and its combination of inspirational but accessible homes, 'Simple Style' is set to become the bible of contemporary home decoration.
The book is divided into three sections: part one discusses the most important elements of contemporary simplicity - Space, Materials, Colour and Pattern, Furniture and Furnishing, and Organisation and Storage - and shows how they can work their magic in any style of home. Part two, Simple Homes, shows how these individual elements of simplicity can be put into practice within a real home.
Specially taken photographs in a number of real-life houses illustrate a successful combination of elements and show how a variety of looks can be achieved. Part three, Practical Simplicity, gets behind the outward appearances and shows how to put together this contemporary simplicity in your own home.
All are illustrated with detailed photographs, artworks or floorplans for easy reference. The basics of interior decoration and the elements of contemporary style are demonstrated along with the fundamentals of good practice.
