Book excerpt: Excerpt from Modern Dwellings in Town and Country Adapted to American Wants and Climate With a Treatise on Furniture and Decoration In the spring of 1876, I prepared an article on Country-houses for Harper's Magazine, which was followed by a series of papers on interiors, containing a few suggestions on household art in general. It then occurred to me that the importance of the subject would justify its treatment in a more extended form. With this view, I began the preparation of the present work, which, although it might have been extended to several volumes without exhausting the subject, will, I trust, prove a practical and reliable guide for those persons who wish to build, furnish, and beautify their houses without an extravagant outlay of money. In the following pages I have profited considerably by the writings of Eastlake and others. In some instances, I have quoted from The American Architect and London Building Heios, and also from a work of my own published in 1863, which has been for some years out of print. In regard to the designs, I must acknowledge my indebtedness to Mr. II. F. Jelliffe, who rendered me great assistance in working them up, and to Mr. Charles Parsons, Superintendent of the Art Department at Harper & Brothers, who has added greatly to their attraction by the graceful introduction of suitable figures and scenery. I feel some hesitation in giving the cost of the various dwellings described, as the fluctuations in prices are such that the expense of building a house in any one year might not be a guide at another time. The estimates I have given are based upon the value of labor and material in the year 1878. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bringing together 12 original essays, Shaping the American Interior maps out, for the first time, the development and definition of the field of interiors in the United States in the period from 1870 until 1960. Its interdisciplinary approach encompasses a broad range of people, contexts, and practices, revealing the design of the interior as a collaborative modern enterprise comprising art, design, manufacture, commerce, and identity construction. Rooted in the expansion of mass production and consumption in the last years of the nineteenth century, new and diverse structures came to define the field and provide formal and informal contexts for design work. Intertwined with, but distinct from, architecture and merchandising, interiors encompassed a diffuse range of individuals, institutions, and organizations engaged in the definition of identity, the development of expertise, and the promotion of consumption. This volume investigates the fluid pre-history of the American profession of interior design, charting attempts to commoditize taste, shape modern conceptions of gender and professionalism, define expertise and authority through principles and standards, marry art with industry and commerce, and shape mass culture in the United States.
