This creative book is much more than a manual or a compilation of pretty interiors. It profiles towns that embody authentic and original rural living, offers guidance on how to find and create it yourself, and detours to subjects such as bringing the outside in, having friends to stay, mixing the old with the new, the importance of texture, and why food eaten outside tastes better. This is a book about place and space, meaning and connection. Get lost between these pages and wander through new ways of living.
