"Easy Country" is a colorful and practical guide to rustic, streamlined elegance.
Katrin Cargill says that "easy country is not just a look--it is a way of living. It is about choosing well-crafted objects made from natural materials that will improve with the years..."
Cargill deftly examines six key country styles (Shaker, Swedish, Modern Country, English Country Cottage, etc) and draws various elements from them--thus creating her own personal style.
She then gives instructive advice on rooms, colors, and furnishings. And in the back of the book, she offers a complete list or sources.
Simon Upton's photographs are large, bright, and sharp.
Interior designers and country stylists will want this book.
note: the cover on my book is not green but red.
