C. F. A. Voysey by Wendy Hitchmough, ISBN 0714837121
From the 1890s until the outbreak of the First World War, C F A Voysey was one of the most successful and renowned British architects. His elegant, white-rendered houses with stone window dressings and sweeping green-slate roofs combined clarity with a sensual appreciation of natural materials. A designer of all things domestic, as well as an architect, he was often involved in every aspect of a house's interior from wallpaper, curtains and furniture to fire grates. Moreover, the fluid curves of his decorative designs and the elongated simplicity of his furniture prove him to be a vital historical link between the Arts and Crafts and the Modern movements.
As the first definitive account of Voysey's architectural career, this book combines contemporary sources -- photographs, quotations, original wallpaper designs and watercolour perspectives -- with specially commissioned photography of his houses.

Divided into three sections, this collector's guide features not only Roycroft furniture but also books and copper and leather craft items. Hundreds of Roycroft items are illustrated that have recently been sold on the auction block, and all prices realized are given.
