Porch Style

by Barbara Buchholz, Lisa Skolnik

THis delightful portfolio spotlights proches from around the world-from the classic farmhouse porch to the stone terrace of a Tuscan hideaway and a white-stuccoed tropical retreat overlooking the ocean. As a traditional space between indoors and out, the porch has its own unique design requirements, and the authors give helpful advice on matching the porch to the house style, and information on porch upkeep, types of paving materials and windows, styles of furnishings, and plants and flowers. Enclosed porches and garden rooms are also here, making Porch Style the complete sourcebook.

Pretty way to enjoy the outdoors

So pretty. Porches say "country home", but this lovely book didn't stray too much into that "I live in Cracker Barrell" look.
