The Bible of British Taste / Ruth Guilding

As author Ruth Guilding puts it: 'My personal mantra for the descriptions of people and their houses in this book roughly seems to be that old stuff is good, and perfection is boring.'

Charting the evolution of British style from William Morris and the Bloomsbury set to today's leading tastemakers, Guilding showcases a vibrant and eclectic mix of homes and gardens across the UK by renowned creatives such as Roy Strong, Jasper Conran, Luke Edward Hall and Ben Pentreath.
