Produktbeschreibungen
From Library Journal
One of several books by this husband-and-wife team of photographer and home decorating writer, this work takes readers on a visual tour of over 25 private homes on Nantucket. Lovely color photos (plus some black-and-white images) show interiors, exteriors, local crafts, and maritime souvenirs. The text covers interesting local history, showing how the traditions of this seafaring community have blended with modern-day influences to create a unique, comfortable, and charming style. Included are a basic map and a list of sources on the island, plus brief sections pertaining to the island's crafts, celebrations, flowers, window boxes, doors, fences, and cuisine. A very enjoyable book, though it is a little disappointing to come to the black-and-white photos after viewing such beautiful color ones.

Kurzbeschreibung
Nantucket, a thirteen-mile-long island off the coast of Massachusetts, is more than a place-- it's a state of mind. Nantucket Style is a handsome and thorough presentation of the unique atmosphere of the historic New England island. Classic American architecture, interiors, arts and crafts, gardens, and cuisine, within an environment offering unsurpassed natural beauty, contribute to the special quality of life on Nantucket island.
Nantucket Style takes the reader on an insider's tour of over twenty-five local residences. The houses range from the exquisitely preserved eighteenth-century mansions that line Main Street to the charmingly rustic cottages that are a hallmark of towns by the sea.
Quiet, relaxed, and unspoiled, this former whaling port is a haven for artists and creative individuals whose approach to life results in striking and inviting interiors. Residents find their own personal styles within the context of the traditional New England buildings that dot the island landscape. Their design solutions are adaptable and appropriate for use by anyone whose home is a preserve of fine living.

Black and White Photos!
9. Juli 2006
Format:Taschenbuch
Wonderful book, except after the initial 24 pages of landscape pictures, half the photographs were in black and white. The ones in color were beautiful. My opinion, if you're going to do a decorating book, do it in color photography, or just make the book smaller. It was such a disappointment to turn the page and see a B&W interior photo of a lovely home, but have no idea of the color of the fabrics, carpet, walls, decoration. You just felt, well, deprived, and there were so many of these B&W pages. A decorating books should make you feel full of possibilities of what you can create and design. Save black and white photos for Time & Life pictures or Ansel Adams where they are terrific, not in a decorating book.
