A FIREPLACE, DESIGNED BY 

 MR. LUTYENS. 



THE two reduced facsimile pictures given 

 here, and the specimen illustrations 

 reproduced on the opposite page, 

 chosen from two hundred and forty which 

 illustrate this handsome quarto volume, serve 

 to indicate how diverse are the subjects 

 treated. It is impossible that any one writer 

 can deal with the many problems that arise out 

 of the artistic and practical equipment of a house, 

 at least with equal knowledge and sympathy. 

 The scheme of the volume, with its forty-three chapters con- 

 tributed by twenty-three experts of acknowledged ability, ensures 

 the throwing of fresh light on scores of questions that concern 



the comfort and pleasure of everyone. To all 

 who own a home, and are not wholly satisfied 

 with it, and to all who contemplate improving 

 an existing house or building anew, this 

 volume will be of the utmost value. The 

 eleven chapters on garden design deal 

 in the main with features appropriate to larger 

 gardens than are illustrated in " Gardens for 

 Small Country Houses," and therefore supple- 

 ment that book in a useful way.
