Excerpt from The Art of the House Should the inspiration of the moment dietate to you a command for walls light in colour, you must not, having once put your hand to the plough, entertain any idea Of looking back. That would be to ruin all. A fastidious chastity of form and site must be the order Of the day; your pieces of furniture, very refined, very fit, and very few, are to be disposed here and there after anxious premeditation and earnest thought. They must correspond in their design with the spirit Of the wall-papers, or the panelling, and be placed just there (and in no other position than that) where they will tell the most effeetively as patches of a darker tone; or you may choose to set the whole - walls, chairs, tables, and all - in a high key; only remembering that if this be done you must keep just as tight a rein over your fancy as though the plenishing were Of dark wood. A severe elegance scrupulously maintained and con Sistently carried out in every particular, is the main characteristic of this method; the colour Chord, limited though it be, will have an austere sweetness that falls in well with some tempera ments, but a jarring note were disastrous.

Excerpt from How to Select a Plan and and How to Build a House The desirability of building modern houses, especially those of moderate cost, to rent, to sell or to live in, is now very well understood. -but there are many who have given the subject no serious attention, although they have the means with which to build. Such persons make a serious mistake, and they will realize some day with regret that they have paid out for rent more than sufficient to have built desirable houses. There are no real difficulties in the way Of building, even by those of no experience whatever, when our drawings, specifications and directions are followed.

Excerpt from The House Dignified: Its Design, Its Arrangement, and Its Decoration Having no national criterions to guide us, we have been obliged to seek those furnished by older civilisa tions, as have all peoples, for the matter of that, whose history has been parallel to our own. This, then, is not to our discredit. That which is to our dis credit is our tendency to keep following new crazes, trusting to our recently acquired millions to aecom plish that which it has taken others centuries to pro duce. The result has been chaos and confusion, the one dominant note being oftenest one of mere vanity - the vanity of possessions.

Excerpt from The Art of Furnishing: On Rational and AEsthetic Principles "The little volume is full of excellent suggestions for general guidance, and these suggestions may be applied almost as well to work in one style as to work in another. There is much, that is, which the possessor of a Gothic villa may turn to account; there is much that will be useful to the dweller in a house of the new Queen Anne style, and still more which will be of service to those who, living in the common terraces of our suburbs, desire to make their "interiors" as comely as they may be made without special adherence to a particular style, which circumstances make impossible, but with a general regard to good taste. The writer of this book seems very much impressed with the fact that in the making of our furniture right principles of construction will keep a thing valuable and pleasant, so that we may stick to it all our lives without fear of the caprice of fashion; and it is one of the merits of his book that, while very fully appreciating the great strides that have been made in the art of furniture and decoration during the last half-dozen years, he does not seek to impose on us the adoption of the style that at the moment of writing may chance to be the most fashionable. The writer is a man of practical experience and artistic feeling. He treats first of such matters as painting and papering - the preparation, that is, of the background against which every figure and every object in the rooms will have to be seen; and then he takes us to the furniture itself, suggesting of course, not each particular piece, but a scheme of general arrangement.

The first comprehensive examination of California''s mid-century modern design, generously illustrated. In 1951, designer Greta Magnusson Grossman observed that California design was "not a superimposed style, but an answer to present conditions.... It has developed out of our own preferences for living in a modern way." California design influenced the material culture of the entire country, in everything from architecture to fashion. This generously illustrated book, which accompanies a major exhibition at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, is the first comprehensive examination of California''s mid-century modern design. It begins by tracing the origins of a distinctively California modernism in the 1930s by such European émigrés as Richard Neutra, Rudolph Schindler, and Kem Weber; it finds other specific design influences and innovations in solid-color commercial ceramics, inspirations from Mexico and Asia, new schools for design training, new concepts about leisure, and the conversion of wartime technologies to peacetime use (exemplified by Charles and Ray Eames''s plywood and fiberglass furniture). The heart of California Design is the modern California home, famously characterized by open plans conducive to outdoor living. The layouts of modernist homes by Pierre Koenig, Craig Ellwood, and Raphael Soriano, for example, were intended to blur the distinction between indoors and out. Homes were furnished with products from Heath Ceramics, Van Keppel-Green, and Architectural Pottery as well as other, previously unheralded companies and designers. Many objects were designed to be multifunctional: pool and patio furniture that was equally suitable indoors, lighting that was both task and ambient, bookshelves that served as room dividers, and bathing suits that would turn into ensembles appropriate for indoor entertainment. California Design includes 350 images, most in color, of furniture, ceramics, metalwork, architecture, graphic and industrial design, film, textiles, and fashion, and ten incisive essays that trace the rise of the California design aesthetic. of wartime technologies to peacetime use (exemplified by Charles and Ray Eames''s plywood and fiberglass furniture).
