Beautiful book! I collect vintage fabrics and I am deen teer Beautiful book! I collect vintage fabrics and I am always interested in fabrics of all kind. this book is a real treasure and one that I will reference for some time.. Easy to Read, Well-Organized, & Highly-Educational A Customer Being an interior designer, this book would be one of the best reference on my book shelves. The autour's knowleadge on fabric seems to be highly proffessional so that I believe this book could be an excellent textbook for schools. The book covers a well-summerized, but not superficial, history on each types of fabric from all over the world, and it further examines fabrics by catagories of different design subjects. Special terms on fabric design are well explained. The design of the bo. Very good. Needed it for an interior design course. Very good.
Includes unpaginated Acknowledgements, Directory, Chronological Table, Glossary, Bibliography, and Index.. The 100 color illustrations display the fabrics and papers in luxurious rooms and up-close details. Phillips draws on the renowned collections of the Victoria and Albert Museum to provide an historical account of fabric design, detailing early patterns and exploring the many directions in which fabrics and wallpapers have ventured.
