Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Principles of Interior Decoration There have been many attempts to formulate the principles of interior decoration, and there will no doubt be many more. The final work on any art can never be written, since artistic theory does not precede the practice of creative artists, but follows after. Of the present book I can say truthfully only that it represents a great amount of hard work, now finished. With a profound sense of relief I pass the work of judgment on to the reader.

Download or read book The Art of Interior Decoration (Classic Reprint) written by Grace Wood and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Art of Interior Decoration If you would have your rooms interesting as well as beautiful, make them say something, give them a spinal column by keeping all ornamentation subservient to line. Before you buy anything, try to imagine how you want each room to look when completed; get the picture well in your mind, as a painter would; think out the main features, for the details all depend upon these and will quickly suggest themselves. This is, in the long run, the quickest and the most economical method of furnishing. There is a theory that no room can be created all at once, that it must grow gradually. In a sense this is a fact, so far as it refers to the amateur. The professional is always occupied with creating and recreating rooms and can instantly summon to mind complete schemes of decoration. The amateur can also learn to mentally furnish rooms. It is a fascinating pastime when one gets the knack of it.

Download or read book Art in Home and Clothing written by Mabel B. Trilling and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-20 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Art in Home and Clothing: Revised This book was first written in the hope that it would prove helpful to students in art and related art courses. It was the result of a conviction that we progress most rapidly in our ability to recognize art quality in dress and in our home environment through a definite and organized study of art principles as they are applied to our own personal art prob lems. Furthermore, the authors believe that it is through the study of these everyday art problems such as occur in plan ning and furnishing our homes and in the selection of our clothing that students discover art as an intimate part of their lives. For many people, art is an elusive and unattainable thing, belonging to those born with artistic talent. T 0 those of us with no conscious experience with art, it seems to be set apart from everyday living and kept on a pedestal in the art gallery. With satisfaction and joy we learn that art is a possession quite possible to all of us, and that'it has a practi cal value in our own' personal problems. The purpose of this text is to guide students through a simple and practical study of everyday art with a twofold result: (i) to reveal a never ending source of enjoyment through recognition of beauty in the daily environment; and (2) to develop ability in solving the art problems of home and dress with greater success.

Book Synopsis Interior Design Since 1900 by : Anne Massey
Download or read book Interior Design Since 1900 written by Anne Massey and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 2020-04-14 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Newly updated and overflowing with color, this well-established history of interior design describes and illustrates each movement and change in taste throughout the twentieth century. Interior design experienced an extraordinary amount of changes in taste and style during the twentieth century. From William Morris and the Arts and Crafts movement to expressionism, postmodernism, and green design, Interior Design Since 1900 charts them all. Featuring more than two hundred color illustrations of interiors from around the world, this book reveals the fundamental changes in style that occurred throughout the century. The 1900s saw the emergence of professional designers and a growing appetite to redesign homes to keep up with popular fashion. In recent decades, the focus has shifted toward public spaces and sustainable design. In this survey, Anne Massey explores the social, political, economic, and cultural contexts of these developments. This book has been a classic introduction to interior design for almost thirty years. The new, fourth edition is brought up-to-date with a chapter on transnational design, encompassing mid-century modernist work in Singapore and Sri Lanka, as well as more recent interior spaces, including luxury hotels in Dubai and a contemporary art museum in Cape Town. Through this book, Massey shows how a shared language of design and cutting-edge technology are reshaping interiors around the globe.
Book Synopsis The Political Economy of Art by : Julie F. Codell
Download or read book The Political Economy of Art written by Julie F. Codell and published by Associated University Presse. This book was released on 2008 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Political economy is defined in this volume as collective state or corporate support for art and architecture in the public sphere intended to be accessible to the widest possible public, raising questions about the relationship of the state to cultural production and consumption. This collection of essays explores the political economy of art from the perspective of the artist or from analysis of art's production and consumption, emphasizing the art side of the relationship between art and state. This volume explores art as public good, a central issue in political economy. Essays examine specific cultural spaces as points of struggle between economic and cultural processes. Essays focus on three areas of conflict: theories of political economy put into practices of state cultural production, sculptural and architectural monuments commissioned by state and corporate entities, and conflicts and critiques of state investments in culture by artists and the public."--amazon.com edit. desc.
