  The Arts and Crafts and Aesthetic Movements, Art Nouveau, the Modern Movement, its rivals Art Deco and the Moderne, American Streamlining and Modern, Pop, Op, Surrealism, HI-Tech, Post-Modernism, Deconstructivism, and many other styles of interior design are charted in this concise but wide-ranging survey. From the Modern movement inspired by leading architects such as Le Corbusier and Frank Lloyd Wright, to groups and schools such as the Bauhaus, to glamorous Art Deco decorators such as Emile-Jacque Ruhlmann, to the virtually anonymous ethnic styles, Anne Massey signposts the changes of direction in interior design. 180 illus., 29 in color.
