Comfort, simplicity, and elegance are the main characteristics of country interiors, making them the perfect antidote to the stresses and strains of modern living. Katrin Cargill draws on the enduring appeal of traditional rural homes to present a new, updated, easy-to-achieve approach to interior style. The unique "Easy Country" look brings together 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 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. � The style is not confined to homes in the depths of the countryside. It is equally effective in a tall townhouse, a tiny one-bed studio, a small row house, an urban loft, or a weekend cottage. � Illustrated throughout with vibrant photographs by Simon Upton.
