William Morris (1834-1896) was a visionary designer, manufacturer, writer, artist, and socialist activist, and one of the greatest creative figures of the 19th century. While pioneering the Victorian-era Arts and Crafts movement, he left an extraordinary impact on architecture, textiles, and interior design. This richly illustrated book offers a beautiful introduction to Morris’s vibrant life and his design work, including interior décor, tiles, embroidery, carpets, and calligraphy. Though known as a poet and writer throughout his life, you will admire these elegant designs that continue to uphold his reputation long after his death. The pages dazzle with beautiful patterns and forms, while we explore his pioneering craftsmanship, natural motifs, and striking cultural heritage through English textiles, Bauhaus, and even modern environmentalism. Hardcover, 96 pages.
