How is it that architects, designers, craftsmen, and their patrons, never seemed to put a foot wrong in the Georgian period? What was the secret of their capacity for producing and appreciating good design, of their faultless sense of style, and their impeccable judgment? This book suggests some of the answers to these questions, with consideration of the social history of design from 1660 to 1830.
