"Although Robert Adam was an architect in the 1700s, many of his homes are still around and drawing attention centuries later. "Adam had from the beginning of his London practice made bold and sumptuous interior effect the combination of novel architectural experience and refined decoration the keystone of his invention. The bare ingredients of this he took from his study in Rome, and in the process contributed something new to the growing field of neoclassical design," writes author Jeremy Musson in the new book Robert Adam: Country House Design, Decoration, and the Art of Elegance (Rizzoli, $65). Many of his creations can be found in the English countryside, where his knowledge of color, craftsmanship, and antiquities are on full display."
