Twentieth Century Decorating, Architecture and Gardens: Eighty Years of Ideas and Pleasure from House and Garden

From Edwardian elegance to a stripped-down, plugged-in electronic world; from a house of many rooms to open-space living in a city loft; from the utter luxury of servants to the simple joy of do-it-yourself - from 1901 to 1980 the many changes in the way we live have been extraordinary. This book is about these changes.
