Illustrated with thousands of vivid pictures, this encyclopaedia is filled with original ideas for dull, featureless and problem windows. It also deals with many other subjects such as pillows, seat cushions, bedding, lambrequins, cornices, swags and shades. Every type of window is covered, from corner to clarestory, from bay to bow, picture and palladian. In addition to the 14 main chapters, there are several glossaries explaining decorating terms, textile fibres and their properties, drapery fabrics, basic window types, fabrics and fabric terms.
