  This work features white-washed floorboards covered by a loosely woven rug, a flower stem in a pewter jug - natural, charming and pure. Today, many of the qualities we find visually pleasing are also ones that work to create a beautiful, tranquil home environment while taking into account the requirements of real people. Simple Style is a guide to creating this simple natural look in every area of the house, offering step-by-step features on refurbishing old surfaces, customising furniture, making the most of soft furnishings, and adding the final details. Reclaim pieces of lace and linen for beautiful bedding, rub colour into shutters to recreate the feel of the seaside or collect driftwood for some simple bathroom shelving. Over 35 practical step-by-step projects are accompanied by stunning examples of pared-down interiors that make the most of natural materials. A comprehensive section on looking at colour and texture suggests ways of drawing inspiration from natural elements and introducing them into the home.
