內容簡介
From the grandeur of Belgravia to the bohemian buzz of Camden, from the Norman Tower of London to the contemporary street art of Tower Hamlets, Doors of London introduces you to every part of inner London. It whisks you through the styles: Norman, Medieval, Tudor and Stuart, Queen Anne, Georgian, Victorian, Edwardian, Art Nouveau and Art Deco. It picks out tall, thin, single, double, polished, scruffy, famous or unknown doors, each holding its own story. Arranged geographically, with an attractive locator map for every area, Doors of London is packed with colourful photographs of the entrances to homes, offices, warehouses, churches, mosques, theatres and libraries. It explains how and why these doors took shape, picking out and dwelling on some of the most interesting. Each chapter concludes with a choice of pubs selected for their history and character. Thematic essays focus on street art, doors in film and television and authors' homes, while special features detail fanlights, letterboxes, knobs and knockers, foot scrapers and other door furniture. Feature Doors tell the stories of the writers, actors, architects, collectors, socialites, bon viveurs and other famous or idiosyncratic owners who lived behind them. Cath Harries is a freelance photographer based in London. It was during one of her commissions in the city that she started noticing front doors and taking pictures of them. What started as a pastime quickly became an obsession and she found herself actively looking for the quirky, colourful and sometimes peculiar doors you will find in this book.Her clients over the years have included Visit London, Dorling Kindersley, CAMRA (Campaign for Real Ale), New Holland Books, Young's pubs, Regus and John Lewis and she can often be found photographing events at the Houses of Parliament. Cath has been the set photographer on productions filmed by Sky Arts and Plenitude Productions and has photographed a number of books including A Foodies Guide to London, London's Best Pubs, London's Afternoon Teas, London's Classic Restaurants and the Haynes Whisky Enthusiast's Manual.
