Sweet Seventies Home

This book is designed to inspire both lovers of the seventies and those who want to honor their seventies home through the story that it tells. The national and global mood and social movements of the era informed the way people lived and the way they designed interior spaces. When we embrace the architectural treasures that remain, we revive beautiful ways of living that celebrate the outdoors, encourage intimate conversations, and bring a sense of whimsy and warmth into the home. Each section of this book describes details characteristic of 1970s homes with artistic renderings that translate these elements into stunning, modern interiors. The book incorporates many different design styles including midcentury modern, traditional, bohemian, and Scandinavian, among others. By balancing the old and new with a mix of design styles, the spaces achieve dimension and interest in ways that will outlast today’s latest trends.
