Romantic Irish Homes by Robert O'Byrne, 2013, CICO Books, out of print, details, beautifully photographed interiors of 15 Irish homes, from traditional farmhouses to converted castles. Irish homes have a personality and character totally different from any other country. Quirky, often whimsical, and undoubtedly quirky, they offer a sanctuary from the grey, cold, damp Irish climate. It is no wonder, then, that over the centuries Irish home architecture and interior design have developed a unique character that prizes colour and vivacity. Romantic Irish Homes presents 15 stunning examples of these characteristics, each distinctive yet sharing the same indigenous spirit. From sprawling castles to sturdy Georgian manors to tiny farmhouses, most have never been photographed before. The homes featured here offer a unique insight into the Irish spirit and an exploration of a decorating style that still retains its historical integrity while meeting 21st century demands. Photographed by Simon Brown, Romantic Irish Homes is as charming and memorable as the Irish people themselves.
