Old House New Home: Стиліський Modern Living in a Period Setting

Most of us live in an old building. It may not be very old, but it is more than likely to be older than we are. Updating and inhabiting an old building brings both pleasures and challenges. In Old House New Home, acclaimed interiors writer Ros Byam Shaw looks at the many different ways we can furnish and arrange an old building to suit todays needs, whether it is a country cottage, a terraced townhouse or a converted factory. Exploring properties as diverse as a small Victorian townhouse and a former country dairy, she reveals how the design of each home has been reinvented for the 21st century. The book is divided into a series of key styles: Period Piece, Urban Chic, Rustic, Recycled Spaces and Country House.
