Modern Comfort

Format: Hardback

Condition: Standard Secondhand — £14.96
What do the conditions mean?

Our conditions mean the following:

  • New - a brand new book
  • Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
  • Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
  • Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
  • Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

Modern Comfort is a sourcebook of contemporary decorating that promises a new modernity in which comfort is to the fore. From wall and floor coverings, to furniture, fabrics, lighting and storage, it highlights a range of design ideas for every room, with the emphasis on creating a home that is in tune with the way we live today. A streamlined modern aesthetic is apparent in the emphasis on the clean shapes of furniture, well thought-out storage, understated color schemes and a consistency of materials throughout a space. But, while there are stainless-steel worktops, tiled walls and glass panels, comfort is ever present too-the natural tone of wood and sisal, seating that is plump and inviting, cozy wool blankets and soft, textured linens. It is this combination of cool with a softened edge that creates that look and signals a less rigorous more realistic style of interior. Adaptability and ease are essential ingredients. These are spaces that are attractive but also practical, and very much for living in.
