In this new, special edition of a cult classic work, photographer
Derry Moore and interior designer David Mlinaric take readers on a
panoramic tour inside some of Britain's finest buildings, guiding
them through five centuries of English interior design. Mlinaric's
informed text and Moore's perceptive photographs present the best
examples of both public and private buildings- from
sixteenth-century Haddon Hall, Chastleton and Knole to
seventeenth-century Hatfield and Wilton; Houghton Hall and Syon
House from the eighteenth century; Apsley House, the Palace of
Westminster and Waddesdon Manor from the nineteenth; and
twentieth-century examples including Charleston and the Apollo
Victoria Theatre. The work of British masters including Inigo
Jones, William Kent and Robert Adam, as well as of influential
twentieth-century tastemakers such as Nancy Lancaster, Pauline de
Rothschild and David Hicks, is revealed in striking photographs and
authoritative texts. Anglophiles, armchair tourists, and lovers of
grand interiors will relish the photographs of these wonderful
buildings, while discovering more about the designers and
architects who built them, charting the evolution that has made
British style so alluring, enduring, and widely imitated over the
centuries.
