Porch Living

By James T. Farmer III

Book Overview

Discover how porches create the perfect transition between home and garden in "Porch Living"--a nostalgic yet modern exploration of these cherished outdoor spaces where classic design meets contemporary comfort, whether grand salon or cozy nook.

The happy space nestled betwixt nature and nest.

Nostalgic yet modernly apropos, Porch Living provides the venue of venues to grasp the goodness of both the home and garden. From the contemporary yet classically rooted outdoor fabrics and furnishings that make porches chic and cherished, to the hanging baskets and planters chock-full of seasonal delights, today's porches offer comfort and elegance, and, most importantly, an addition to the home and garden. Whether jettisoned boldly into parterres aplenty or delightfully diminutive, a grand outdoor salon or sleeping nook, the porch represents how we live and how to gloriously live hinged to and romantically suspended in the home and garden.
