Naturally Modern: Creating Interiors with Wood, Leather, Stone, and Natural Fabrics

By Ros Byam Shaw

In a world dominated by technology, nature's raw materials are back in fashion0and with them a taste for interiors that minimize clutter and accentuate sensual appeal. Design writer Ros Byam Shaw offers a wealth of useful and inspirational decorating ideas to help the reader bring the colors and textures of nature into the home. As illustrated in some 250 photographs of contemporary American, European, and Asian rooms, natural materials bring a warmth and intimacy to both country and city dwellings-and a look that will wear beyond the vagaries of fashion.

Simplicity, durability, and comfort

With its emphasis on simplicity, durability, and comfort, this is an interior design manual perfectly suited to today's lifestyles.
