Whether your perfect retreat home is a log cabin deep in the woods of Vermont or a minimal hut on a breezy British beach, Huts, Havens and Hideaways is about making that dream a reality. Your hideaway needn't be big or fitted out with all the high-tech comforts of urban life; it needn't be far away or expensive - locations featured range for a disused railway carriage on a Scottish hillside to a treehouse at the bottom of the garden, from a hideaway on the edge of the Arctic Circle to an Airstream trailer in the Californian desert.
We are each naturally drawn to different things in nature for our perfect sanctuaries: the fertile earth, the open air, the fire of the sun or hearth and the lapping waters of sea, river or lake. For this reason, the book is divided into the chapters Earth, Air, Fire and Water. Each chapter focuses on hideaways that encapsulate an element, drawing inspiration for their decor from the characteristic colours, patinas and textures of their surroundings. Rather than inaccessible case studies, these are environments to inspire and take home.
