Romance is in-again-which is probably why Victorian design and architecture are as popular now as they were from the middle of the nineteenth century to the beginning of the twentieth century when Victorian was the contemporary style. Lesen Sie die erste Seite

Victorian dream
18. April 2006
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
This is a wonderful book for anyone dreaming of restoring a Victorian home. Lots of pictures but also well researched and interesting text. Helpful for those of us who do not want to model "mimic" our rooms after a specific photo spread in a book, but would like to understand, incorporate, and enjoy the historic details of our beautiful homes.

aims high, falls short
6. März 2008
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
Plenty of eye candy to drool over and a nice variety of photos from over-the-top high-end rooms to simple log cabins, especially for those who are more interested in "period inspired" than "period accurate". (For that, get Jane Powell's book "Bungalow Bathrooms".) However, it suffers in the editing department. The book is a conglomeration of short articles by a bunch of different authors rather than a single author's work. Typos and misused homonyms disrupted the flow of reading. Some factual errors were particularly irritating: for instance, "It marks a period of 'balloon construction', which implies that moldings and other architectural elements would no longer be molded into place individually or carved one by one. Rather they would come in strips and be shipped from factories in bulk." I'd like some of what that contributor was smoking, because it was apparently pretty good stuff - balloon construction referred to a specific style of FRAMING a house, it has nothing to do with the moldings. If you want information on the history of household sanitation and on residential construction of the Victorian era, read something else, this one's primarily for the pictures.

Wonderful Resource
2. Februar 2010
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
This is the exact book I've been looking for. I recently bought a victorian house and want to bring it back to its original period, and this book has helped more than any other I've purchased. Many books tell the reader to "be creative", but I don't want to "be creative". I want to be accurate. I needed a detailed synopsis of what is really period and how the Victorians lived and used their kitchen/bathrooms. This book explained what furniture, accessories, finishes, and styles the Victorians actually used and why. And they talked about what Victorians DID NOT use and why. Very helpful.
