Wilhide, Elizabeth.

Sir Edwin Lutyens : designing in the English tradition / by Elizabeth Wilhide ; foreword by Candia Lutyens.

New York : Harry N. Abrams, 2000.

192 pages : illustrations (some color) ; 26 cm

"This volume offers the first thorough examination of Lutyens's work in interior and furniture design, revealing its enduring relevance and appeal." "Elizabeth Wilhide traces the development of Lutyens's style and identifies the basic principles that informed his work, such as his finely tuned manipulation of space and light - an outsize staircase steals space but evokes spaciousness; a circular cook's table is flooded with natural light from an enormous lantern window in the roof. Reflecting his flexible, inventive mind, Lutyens's furniture and interiors are, like many of his buildings, precise and seemingly traditional, yet at a second glance whimsical, individual, and always supremely liveable."
"Illustrated throughout with specially commissioned and archival photographs of intact or restored interiors and gardens, original designs for furniture, and contemporary reinterpretations of the Lutyens style."--Jacket.
