This book sets out to reveal the exuberent and whimsical manner in which the romantic medieval Gothic style of architecture and design has been revived from the 18th century to the present, showing how an 800-year-old trend can still look fresh today. From mock ruins and other fanciful garden follies to extravagant manor houses and castles in England, from simple cottages to Hudson River villas and the mansions of Palm Beach, this book examines Gothic's inventive and exuberent design heritage as expressed over the past three centuries. Some 30 structures - many open to the public - in the United States and Great Britain are explored inside and out. In addition, a social history is told which conveys the romantic spirit with which tastemakers, architects, and designers have captured the medieval past. After decades of neglect, the Gothic style is now enjoying a period of renewed interest. Designers, decorators, architects, and collectors are increasingly turning to the Gothic legacy for inspiration. Gothic designs are appearing in architecture as well as in a wide assortment of home furnishings, including decorative objects, fabrics, and wall hangings.
