“The ornament of a house is the friends who frequent it.”
- Ralph Waldo Emerson
-dressing it up
“Simplifying a room by removing clutter” is an Arts and Crafts rule to live by.

 

his does not necessarily mean that every surface in the room should display only one object, despite the way the style is presented and photographed in many publications.


Although small in relation to a home’s overall size some collectors put more resources into acquiring “objects they desire” rather than the house or its’ furnishings. Books, along with art, ceramics, and metalware are often the primary interest to the collector, while the house they are to be displayed in may be of modest size and not even in the Arts and Crafts style.

Harmony and the relationship among objects in a room, the colour, lighting, fabrics and floor coverings are of equal importance in recreating “the style”.

At STYLE DESIGN our consultants will work with you to design an environment that will be a continuing source of great pleasure and tranquillity for years to come. That is the beauty of the style…it’s sense of timelessness.

aArts and Crafts Style Three-Panelled Screen (or modesty panel)
rafted in a timber and stain of your choice these screens come ready to take infill panels of your design and preference.

Traditionally these were finished with embroidery or textile, utilising an Arts and Crafts era motif or pattern, but may have leather, flock wallpaper, or even a fabric of your choice to co-ordinate with an existing décor or colour scheme…the choice is yours, and the possibilities endless!

Each panel stands 1750 high x 571 wide x 25mm deep with sturdy brass hinges, and the rich warmth of these creates and “instant era appearance” wherever they are positioned. The example shown here is for presentation purposes and to indicate the style only.

As costings for these items will vary according to the type of timber, stain, or infill chosen, and whether you require the supply and fitting of the infill panel before despatch to you, or would prefer to handle this yourself, please don’t hesitate to “contact us” to discuss your idea, and for a firm quotation. We are only to pleased to assist.
