This fully illustrated sequel to "Period Details" reflects a revival of interest in period design and furnishing. It provides a chronological guide to the style of each period and presents ways of recreating styles of the past, from Elizabethan, Edwardian, Victorian and neo-Gothic to Art Deco. There is advice on how to choose colours, bleach floorboards, create period-style bookshelves, stencil walls, choose and position furniture and make cushions from recycled Persian carpets. The book concludes with a 24-page directory listing suppliers, museums and courses on period architecture and interiors.
