Summary

The Arts and Crafts movement began as an instinctive reaction against the new industrial age. Seeking a return to simple craftsmanship, with traditional materials, its influence spread both to Europe and North America where the term craftsman denoted a traditional style of architecture and interior design prevalent before the 1920s.

Arts and Crafts House Styles Summary

Arts and Crafts House Styles by Trevor Yorke

In England the Arts and Crafts influence upon house building was far-reaching between 1870 and 1914. The result was some superb buildings by key architects like Norman Shaw and Voysey, but also a wide range of others ranging from simple terraces to the finest detached houses of the period. Using both his own illustrations and color photographs, Trevor Yorke shows the distinctive features and details of genuine Arts & Crafts homes. There are chapters on the furnishings and fittings, including examples of furniture, wallpapers fabrics, and distinctive details like door handles, hinges and light fittings. This is a perfect book for those who want to learn more about the simplicity and elegance of the Arts and Crafts Styles. Full Color.
