    The beautiful necessity : decorating with arts & crafts

    Rare Books

    The best-selling Beautiful Necessity: Decorating with Arts & Crafts details everything necessary for creating Arts & Crafts interiors, from wall coverings to furnishings, tiles, stenciling, accessories, moldings, and floor coverings. More than 140 stunning photographs showcase the Arts & Crafts movement from its humble beginnings to its recent and well-deserved surge in popularity. The furniture and architectural designs of the Arts & Crafts movement were created not to dominate nature, but to coexist with it. Earth-tone colors, natural motifs and building materials, and intricate and decorative fireplaces all hearkened back to simpler times. That same yearning for elegant simplicity continues to propel a modern revival of the Arts & Crafts movement, and appeals to modern needs for both quality and understated beauty. Beautiful Necessity: Decorating with Arts & Crafts will guide even an Arts & Crafts novice to a beautifully accented bungalow, cabin, or family home.

    Aurora

    Rare Books

    "Perhaps the most recognized and widely collected photographer of botanical studies working today, Ron van Dongen's recent shift to color work was documented in our previous monograph, 'Effusus', which was published in 2005 and has since sold out. We are pleased to announce his follow-up book, 'Aurora', presenting 33 gorgeous new plates printed--as with all of his Nazraeli Press monographs--in an oversized format bound in Japanese cloth. This new work adds to the Dutch photographer's long and skilled study of flora in its many incarnations"--Publisher's description.
