英国乡村别墅风格在人们的集体想象中占据了很大的比重,激发了人们对有百年历史的庄园生活的幻想,俯瞰羊群密布的青翠山峦。这本书使我们能够进入一些最特殊的英格兰历史建筑,这些建筑由富有想象力的主人和设计师居住,并为了现代的使用进行了装饰。杰里米•穆森和雨果•里特森•托马斯收集了20座迷人的房屋,这些房屋的内部和外部都显示出非凡的品味和风格灵感,从传统和古典到当代和波希米亚,例子包括哈登庄园、斯梅德莫尔、诺克宫和拉斯凯特。
English country house style looms large in the collective imagination, inspiring fantasies of life in a centuries-
old manor house, overlooking verdant hills dotted with sheep.
