William Morris and Morris & Co by
Lucia Van der Post(
Book
)
9 editions published between 2003 and 2004 in English and held by 373 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
"William Morris is one of the greatest and best-known British designers. He created highly distinctive designs for wallpapers and textiles which are still enjoying enormous popularity today. Through his company, Morris & Co., he contributed to the transformation of interior design at the end of the nineteenth century and gave expression to the ideas of the Arts and Crafts Movement. This lively introduction to his work covers the key elements of pattern and his extraordinary use of colour, as well as favourite themes such as nature and ideas based on literature and legend. It also offers a fascinating insight into his working practices, which were so different from those of many of his Victorian contemporaries. His desire to make beautiful things was at the core of his enterprise, and his subtle colour schemes and evocative designs, many of which are still in production, have a timeless appeal." "Through carefully chosen images showing rooms using Morris design in a wide variety of settings, and details of individual textile and wallpaper designs, the book aims to put his ideas into a modern context, providing inspiration for contemporary home owners."--BOOK JACKET
