Take a tour of comfortable and charming farmhouses, presented "Country Living" style. Breathtaking photographs, accompanied by marvelously in-depth information, reveal the myriad ways these old-fashioned homes can fit beautifully into our modern-day lifestyles. While the exteriors of these houses all retain their strong lines and architectural origins, the interiors showcase a variety of sensibilities. See sophisticated farmhouses that smoothly combine the best of old and new; homes entirely decorated in flea-market finds; houses that serve as showcases for magnificent antique collections; and contemporary redefinitions with loft-like spaces and fashionable de cor. Each profile goes room by room, carefully explaining the owner's needs, desires, and design decisions: everything from wall treatments and light fixtures to shelving and appliances receives meticulous attention and discussion.Hueston, Marie Proeller is the author of 'Farmhouses Stylish Decorating Ideas for the Classic American Home', published 2006 under ISBN 9781588164773 and ISBN 1588164772.
