About
A 200-year journey through the history of British interior design, examining how design has affected one Georgian house and its inhabitants in Bristol, from when it was first built in 1779 right up to the present day. Fashions in interior design have mirrored social, political and economic trends. Six different periods are explored, each covering between 30 and 50 years. The interior is restored with objects and gadgets, revealing how the different families occupying the house might have lived and how design influenced their lifestyle.
