    This book presents eight exceptional country houses that have been created or restored by Belgian architects and interior specialists.
    The first example, recently built near Bruges in a classic eighteenth-century style, is based on a bishop’s country seat from 1750.
    Next to be presented is an exclusive new country house in the green belt around Antwerp, which is based on Little Thakeham, a famous design from 1902 by the English architect Sir Edwin Lutyens.
    Finca La Carrascosa, situated in Spain near Jerez de la Frontera (Seville), is a striking restoration project carried out by a Belgian couple who are interior specialists.
    A historic farmhouse in the southern Netherlands, transformed into a contemporary country house in magnificent natural surroundings, has been refurbished by a Belgian interior decorator.
    A stately country house in southwest Flanders has been renovated in a very serene and understated manner: a fascinating mix of classic architecture, contemporary interior design and modern art.
    A house in Flemish Brabant dating back to 1642 with dépendances from the nineteenth century has been thoroughly restored to become a modern home.
    An authentic mas in the Provence has been restored with a light touch and refurbished in the local style.
    The book closes with the masterly restoration of a centuries-old country house in the French Périgord: just as in all the other projects, it demonstrates the creative brio with which Belgian architects and interior designers – both at home and abroad – achieve exceptional results.

Everyone has a dream of the perfect country house: beautiful, warm and welcoming with a sense of comfort and style that comes naturally. The word ‘country’ evokes a timeless simplicity, where classic form is married to a soft, decorative feel, where colour and pattern are used informally, and where light and space are at the heart of every room.

The re-introduction of colour and pattern to interior design, and the perennial popularity of natural materials make a stylish, country look easy to attain. Chapters include specific country styles such as Shaker, New England and modern Ethnic, along with practical ways to really bring the outside in – from using natural textiles and textures, to incorporating seaside checks and country-style florals. With more than two hundred stunning colour photographs, Country in the City is an inspiration to those wanting
to make every day in the city a dream of country living.

• Liz Bauwens creates an urban country look that will appeal to city dwellers looking for an easy and relaxed style of decoration.
• Taps into the current trend that has moved away from minimalism towards a more comfortable and ‘shabby chic’ look.
• Features beautiful locations, many of which have never been photographed before.

More and more people are choosing to escape from the bustle of city life and retreat to the countryside: dilapidated farmhouses are being restored, old country houses are being returned to their former glory and newly-built projects are integrated into the landscape.
The aim is always to create a sense of harmony with the existing environment.

This book contains around twenty reports featuring all aspects of country living: from the restoration of the house and the selection of materials to the interior design and the landscaping of the garden.

A book featuring beautiful country interiors, exteriors and gardens is the perfect vehicle for his knowledge, experience and design ethic. Based on traditional country style with clean, modern influences, his first book is a collection of beautiful images, clever style notes and personal sentiment.

He presents a stunning book for those wishing to emulate this style of design, be it that they live in the country or the city, in a mansion or an apartment. They may be relocating, renovating or simply looking to be taken on a journey through a book on a style that they love

Examining the imaginative and compelling way in which fashion has permeated 21st century culture, this book considers the relationship between fashion on the catwalk and architecture, interiors and products. Many fashion designers extend their aesthetic into interiors and products for the home as a natural progression from clothing the body.

The home is now subject to the same directional trends as fashion, in part because so many designers are extending their practice to include interiors, as well as products and accessories. The fusion between fashion and interiors has never been more relevant. The proliferation of ideas, the speed of manufacture, and an increasingly visually literate consumer, have all resulted in interiors being subject to the same desire for innovation, change and fashionability as fashion. This investigation of the hectic dissemination of trends takes the reader on an eclectic, adventurous excursion into living with fashion.

Here is the best of both worlds: New houses with old-world sensibilities. In Creating a New Old House, architect Russell Versaci shows you that it is possible to design and create a new house that looks and feels like it has always been there.

Versaci explores how architects, builders, and craftsmen are reinterpreting the traditional American house. Through photographs and engaging text, discussions of history and craftsmanship, and sidelong glances at the workings of real old houses, Versaci explains how traditional houses go together and what gives them their unique design appeal.

• Features 17 new, old-style houses -- from colonials to farmhouses -- from all over the country
• Versaci identifies Eight Pillars of Traditional Design that create a solid foundation for combining authentic, traditional design with livability to create homes that feel old yet work for the demands of modern family living.
