Every project is rooted in tradition, truth, and an inherent connection to historical architecture and the rural landscape--whether that be a country house in Litchfield County, Connecticut, or an apartment in New York's Greenwich Village. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDrawing inspiration from Shaker cleanness of line, Arts and Crafts integrity, Dutch agricultural buildings, and bohemian chic, the interiors team selects paint colors, furnishings, textiles, lighting, and general finishes--all chosen with an appreciation for historical and contemporary art, design, film, and literature. The goal is to create eclectic, well-informed, and emotional interior spaces that do not play to today's design trends. The designs express the essence of rural America--the practicality and purity of materials and design, with a keen understanding and deep knowledge of traditional buildings and construction.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Rizzoli International Publications\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/09\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780847874347\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.25lbs","brand":"Heide Hendricks, Rafe Churchill","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51581046718645,"sku":"9780847874347","price":63.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_29dcbd64-1c26-4ae2-97d6-8ec0e54cd996.jpg?v=1755619385","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/distinctly-american-houses-and-interiors-by-hendricks-churchill-9780847874347","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
