Salvage Style by Moira and Nicholas Hankinson - 2000: In Your Home

In good condition - dust jacket torn - markings from use - due to differing weights in books, postage maybe adjusted at checkout.

Whimsical cupboards, colourful baskets and bowls, gutsy armchairs and fantasy picture frames can all be created from reclaimed materials; something that has already had one life can be rescued and recycled into something new, beautiful and original.

Salvage Style in your Home looks at salvage, ransacks the reclamation yards and gets expert insights from architects, designers, and enthusiasts on the practical use of recycling materials in the home. Its inspirational ideas are proof of the exciting possibilities of turning unwanted artefacts into objects of desire.

Moira and Nicholas Hankinson feel strongly about the need to preserve our architectural heritage and in this book they give knowledgeable advice on how reclaimed materials and ornamentation can be used in rooms around the house. Over two hundred specially commissioned photographs show recycled materials used imaginatively in real homes. Practical techniques are demonstrated in over thirty easy-to-follow projects that will be at home in any interior from urban chic to traditional style. To complete the book there is an informative section on How to get it, How to do it.
