Beauty and Utility: the Arts and Crafts house and garden

We will examine the material outcomes in every sense of the Arts and Crafts Movement founded on rural and historic ideals of human skill, launched in the 1880s to counter Britain’s industrialisation. From William Morris’s romantic utopianism balanced with Philip Webb’s common sense and practicality to William Robinson and Gertrude Jekyll.
