Windows & Doors On Older Houses

Windows & doors on older houses, written by Liselotte Jarneruo Nilsson. A very useful and inspirational book about coloring doors, windows, glass.

Back text: The experts' advice to those who want to renovate and restore their old house is to do as little as possible. And this applies not least to windows and doors. There are too many examples of unsuccessful interventions, where the architecture and age of the house were not taken into account. This book aims to remedy that. Windows & Doors on Older Houses wants homeowners to keep the house's old windows and doors instead of replacing them. In the book, which is a mixture of facts, history and practical do-it-yourself instructions, the reader gets the necessary knowledge and tools to succeed in the renovation and maintenance of the house's windows and doors. The book is richly illustrated with both photos and drawings that show the period-typical differences in design and details over the years, and how the practical renovation and maintenance work is carried out.
