Book Description

Publication Date: 23 Feb 2009 | ISBN-10: 1856695964 | ISBN-13: 978-1856695961 | Edition: 3
Much like the history of art, the history of interior design encompasses numerous styles, movements and the international political and social developments that have informed or challenged its evolution. This lavishly illustrated book will be of interest to anyone who appreciates interior design as well as antiques, furniture design, textiles, decorative objects and the general evolution of the space where we work and live.

The new edition contains 150 new photos, 35 new line drawings, 32 more pages, making it more lavish than the first. A companion web site filled with even more images is also new to this edition and offers great value.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must read for budding interior designers 10 Dec 2001
By A Customer
Format:Hardcover
For any up and coming interior designer, history is a very important subject to learn. This book includes all information needed, from Ancient Greece to 20th Century designs. You will not be disapointed. Probably the only history book you will ever need.
