This is a book that draws on the enduring appeal of traditional rural homes to present an updated, easy-to-achieve approach to country style. The Easy Country look draws on design influences from around the world. It is a distillation of elements associated with English country cottages, Shaker meeting houses, classical Swedish interiors, simple Mediterranean farmhouses and the homes of the early American settlers. Katrin Cargill offers her own inimitable interpretation of the components of these styles to produce a look that is entirely her own – relaxed, unpretentious and full of character and warmth.
