A stunning photographic exploration of cottage-style buildings, from RIBA award-winning designs in Wales and traditional worker's cottages in Dorset to Japanese woodland escapes and vibrant homes in New Orleans.

Opening with an engaging examination of the enduring appeal of the cottage – considering such things as what defines a cottage? What are the challenges of living in one? And what
makes cottages so uniquely beguiling? Divided into chapter by style of cottage, including historic, urban, cottage industries, contemporary and creative, each one will open with a main feature showcasing an exemplary cottage owned by a notable creative, designer or maker.
The beautiful images will unlock their different aesthetics and explore the lifestyles that flourish within.

With enlightening interviews around thatching and cottage gardens, Life Inside a Cottage gives a wonderfully well-rounded view of what life looks like in these treasured spaces.
