Publisher's Synopsis
""The Art and Business of Interior Decoration"" is a guidebook for aspiring interior decorators, written by Benjamin Russell Herts and first published in 1922. The book covers the principles of interior design, including color theory, furniture placement, and lighting, as well as practical advice on running an interior decorating business. Herts draws on his own experience as a successful decorator to offer insights into the industry, including how to work with clients, manage budgets, and source materials. The book is illustrated with photographs and diagrams, and includes examples of Herts' own work. While some of the advice may be outdated, ""The Art and Business of Interior Decoration"" remains a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of interior design or the business of decorating.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
