{"product_id":"taste-drew-plunkett-9781859469255","title":"Taste: A Cultural History of the Home Interior","description":"\u003cp\u003eDemocratic in intention and approach, the book will argue that the home interior, as independently created by the 'amateur' householder, offers a continuous informal critique of shifting architectural styles (most notably with the advent of Modernism) and the design mainstream. Indeed, it will suggest that the popular increasingly exerts an influence on the professional. Underpinned by academic rigour, but not in thrall to it, above all this book is an engaging attempt to identify the cultural drivers of aesthetic change in the home, extrapolating the wider influence of 'taste' to a broad audience - both professional and 'trade'. In so doing, it will explore enthralling territory - money, class, power and influence. Illustrated with contemporary drawings and cartoons as well as photos, the book will not only be an absorbing read, but an enticing and attractive object in itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Drew Plunkett\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1859469256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781859469255\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Riba Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/26\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 8.40w x 0.70d","brand":"Drew Plunkett","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44075098964223,"sku":"9781859469255","price":56.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_fbe1519b-ca39-4937-ac49-b01ef124034f.jpg?v=1685457599","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/taste-drew-plunkett-9781859469255","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
