Living in the Countryside

by Barbara Stoeltie, René Stoeltie, Taschen (Editor)

We have tirelessly travelled through the country-sides of Sweden, Ireland, England, Holland, France, Greece, Tuscany, Majorca, and Greece in search of the best examples of rural homes which reflect the tradition and culture of their inhabitants. Many inspirational TASCHEN books have been born from these excursions, but this one is the first to combine examples from all of the different countries we have explored. In 400 pages of luxurious photographs, including details and descriptions, this new book affords fans of country living all the inspiration and diversity they could desire.

400 pages, Hardcover

This is one of my favorite books. The photographs are so beautiful and relaxing... It is almost like being in one's own glorious European cottage. Going through this book is like being on a tranquil retreat.

It starts with the artist, Carl Larsson’s house in Darlana, Sweden and travels through Europe to houses in Majorca and Greece. It is written in 3 languages: English, French and German. It is full of large, beautiful, full color photographs. Beautiful book.
