The artistic or decorative effect of the designs to ‘s) be used in the home must be considered as carefully - as their appropriateness. It is an accepted prin- i 4 i f ciple in all decorative art that decoration must not eT «ay, Tt e interfere with usefulness. Wall paper is, perhaps, more thoughtlessly pur- chased than any other of the necessities of life. Within the pages of this volume we offer illustrations showing the correct ideas in wall decorations; by which we mean the utilization in the most artistic manner the designs presented. Good decoration involves three important points: (1) Quality in color. (2) Quality in design. (3) Arrangement of color and design. The purpose of decorating is to enable us to view the four walls without unpleasantness to the eyes and restlessness to the mind. There- fore, it is evident that the problem of decoration embodies two factors. viz: Vision and Consciousness. You will understand the importance of securing good designs in wall papers. The possibilities to purchase better ideas have kept pace with the achievements of the manufacturer, and it is no longer neces- sary to use other than the newest and best wall paper. We display the many ideas shown in “Home Decoration” not as they are regularly shown by the dealer, but by a “different” way we produce a treatment of every design for each and every room. We offer these “color schemes’? and 1909 fashions for the purpose of safeguarding against disappointment in the selection of wall papers. ALFRED PEATS COMPANY NEW YORK BOSTON CHICAGO SHE CLUB DINING ROOM The popularity of the “Club” is so universal nowadays that each member of the family holds claim to a membership. If we think of the golf, motor, riding, yacht or social club, we are sure to “breathe” recollections of the “cafe.” The spacious four walls of the club dining room encircle and hold us in the charm of their artistic blending of colors. The page opposite exemplifies a successful treat- ment of the club dining room. The illustration depicts a color scheme based upon a knowledge of the Science of Art and Decoration. To execute a decoration for the cafe and also appeal to the tastes of all club members, requires thoughtful study. The absence of careful study is apparent in so many cases that there is no escape for the eyes from the glare of hideous contrasting of colors. Obtrusive decoration is worse than no decoration. Unstinted use of words may express sentiments of harmony, but the execution of good ideas, both from an artistic and scientific standpoint, will appeal more forcibly to those who believe in “better done than said,” rather than the old adage which says, “say it but don’t do it.” The design shown in sketch I is one of the new crown effects and ‘offers a splendid opportunity to decorate exquisitely. This treatment is equally appropriate for a breakfast room or country dining room as well as forithe Club. The numbers below constitute the various parts of the sketch. We also give the quantity necessary to paper a room I2xI5 and 10 feet high with four openings. If your room is larger add one roll and two crowns for each foot, or deduct the same amount for every foot if smaller. Lower Wall No. 4091 Glove go60 OFroller Saab.

Wi 1en the ash puts forth her delay- ARLOR * buds amid the surrounding greenness it is oe a sign that Spring—(fresh- ness, newness) is at hand. If we wait long enough most things come to us, or we arrive at them and the strong wish makes its fulfillment. At any rate we always find that the advent of Spring awakens those cherished dreams which sug- gest annually, unviolated by any disillusional sua: ties, the thought that we must decorate. Fancy has always cloudless skies above the horizon and duty not unlike Nature demands new decorations everywhere. In early Spring fashion portrays its designs in various colors and tones and in the round of suggestions offers suitable and artistic ideas admirably,—there are but c to whom its voice is unheard. It forces them willingly into the whirlpool of necessity and they only escape when the walls of the home are freshened with new Spr ing-like wall papers. But the present moment when we are once more beginning not only to decorate finely but to do so with knowledge, and to furnish our homes by the aid of expert advice, we find it a pleasant task rather than one to be dreaded. It is the peculiar merit of “Home Decoration” that makes it com- pletely representative ae so supplies the wants of this “all-round ap- preciation.” Looking at the apa collection of examples shown in this volume, the individuality of the work is most impressive and they are just those ideas which are called “different” from ordinary designs in wall pa- pers. They are original from the base-board to the eaves and finials. The interior opposite is indeed a choice bit of color for the Parlor and we recommend it as a modern and appropriate decoration. The num- bers of the patterns used and quantities of each for a room 12 by 15 and 10 feet high are given below. We have allowed for 4 openings which is an average miiiiber of doors and windows in a room.

IVING ROOM The competent architect is most successful in convincing us that good architecture is the best. He so contrives that his plans shall themselves convince his clients of the importance of profes- sional service. To glance at the exterior of home after home recalls the fact that their outward appearance is absolutely and unmistakably attrac- tive. There is little need of improvement at all. They afford fascinating examples for contrast and comparison. The enrichment of the interiors is not so well cared for. It is at this point the client takes a hand and many times destroys a promis- ing palace. In many of the old famous houses of Europe during the Tudor, Elizabethan and Jacobean periods, the architect went hand in hand with his faithful decorator and in consequence their success was due in a great measure to the fact that they followed closely the necessary requirements for the interiors and decorations in the period conforming with the houses he built. Before deciding finally on the wall papers for the home, the first question to ask is to what extent can you rely upon your own knowl- edge and what part of your judgment in color and design is sufficiently equal to the occasion. We have no hesitation in saying that the illustrations in this volume are suggestive of accurate study. This fact will tell the thoughtful reader they are not of an illusive imagination. The living room sketch contributes a beautiful arrangement of the four walls of this important room. The numbers of the designs, motifs, borders, etc., with sufficient quantity of each for the average room men- tioned heretofore, are printed below: Lower Wall No. 3272 Enclose 7550 5 rolls Book No. 3 Crown & Base Non3273) end 1812 each 28 crowns Book No.3 Panel Border No: 3509%* Banyan 9060 2 rolls SAS: Middle Panel { Background ; No. 972 Fatigue 6040 4 rolls Book No. 5 Motif No. 5307M* Hostage 3020each 15 motifs S.5S.

ED ROOM If it be true as a contemporary Pa has recently said that we may a almost determine the relative importance of any movement by the number of new books it has evoked, then we must conclude that Decorative Art has within the last few years taken a most extra- ordinary hold on the public mind, for the number of books on the subject is as the sands of the sea. Of the multitude of “Art Series” on interior decoration now being published, none is quite so complete as Alfred Peats’ “Home Decoration.” The plan of giving a short, critical and biographical account of artists accompanied with three-color reproductions of their work should be ereatly commended. To the present writer there seems to be a curious parallel between all great artists, perhaps no more than the inevitable resemblance that must always be found between great masters of the same craft, who are all informed by the same lofty ideals and noble intellectuality. A celebrated authority is quoted in reference to the word “Nature.” “They say that I ignore her; but they fail to understand that I do not merely copy Nature; I draw my inspiration from her,” and it is neces- sary to cut away from Nature everything that is ineffective and acci- dental. “Art completes what Nature roughly sketches,” might have been uttered by every master in expressing his attitude towards art. In wall papers the abundant designs are well executed and reproduce natural flowers, foliage, etc., almost to perfection. The sketch opposite suggests an artistic arrangement of a sleeping apartment. the soses appear as if real and full of life. A fascinating example of the ingen- uity of the artist.

We not only reproduce splendidly the triumphs of the eighteenth century, but we apparently have the inspiration of our own to reflect the times we live in as other periods reflected theirs. Wall papers should reflect the conditions of social life and it is this quite true idea that under- lies the designs offered in the pages of “Home Decoration.” The pat- tern in the sketch opposite has the effect of being very slightly inlaid here and there with a design of fruit or simple lines to break the surface. The object the artist had in mind was to portray an artistic and appropriate Dining Room wall decoration, not only for the home but for the apartment now that so many people have discovered the advan- tages of the latter form of dwelling. It can readily be seen the effect of the illustration is charming. The latticed crown is effective and decorative without any of the extravagance in line and detail that is often found to be a continual blemish on the walls of so many rooms we have seen papered. The variety of designs to be had are unlimited and inexpensive. All lovers of good decoration will appreciate the many schemes dis- played throughout this volume, thus providing them with dainty and decorative wall papers which will never look out of place or unduly severe in their rooms and whose price is within the range of even slender purses. The numbers of the patterns exemplified in the colored drawing is given below: Wall Hanging No. 3264 Emulate: 5436 10 rolls Book No. 3 Crown No. 3265 Emyd 1208 each 28 crowns Book No. 3 Lattice NO. o35y yet 5436 3 rolls Book No. 3 Ceiling No. 3219 ~=—- Effigy 2718 6 rolls Book No. 5 The lattice or arbor effect is a novel way to decorate the upper walls of a dining room.

The fault lies in the fact that they visit a mer- chant who sells wall paper merely for profit and who offers just such designs as suit his own purse. In the Alfred Peats’ stores they deal with the subject of decoration to the minutest detail, and in “Home Decoration’—their artistic representative—you will find, filled with useful hints and color schemes. The style in which the latter information is proffered gains for the author the confidence of the reader, and to those who are interested in the subject comes the satisfaction as they lay the book aside that they have acquired knowledge in theoretical and practical views of Deco- ration. . It is given to few writers to thoroughly realize the niceties which surround the modern circumstance. In this book the author and the artists are particularly fortunate, for not only may the novice become initiated in what best concerns him, but the experienced may find pleas- ure in digesting the reminiscences of observant minds. To determine the amount of paper for a hall and stairway, first measure all of the strips (18 inches wide) of the same length; take this number and multiply by the height and divide by 24, the number of feet in a roll. In the “well” of a stairway, count the strips of even length, or singly, as they may prove, and total the amount of running feet in all the strips and divide as above. This will give you the quan- tity in rolls. The numbers designated below display the different patterns used in the decoration.

This danger past and the groundwork of sever- ity and simplicity having been once more attained, wise study and the best ideas in wall papers has resulted in what may be considered a “characteristic style of to-day.” It is on these lines that the artist has worked out his sketches; and a glance at the many illustrations which are drawn from the actual papers will prove at once how successful he has been in establishing a distinct character in his charming work. It is a mere truism to say that painted sketches must lose something when reproduced in the three-color process. The most perfect photo- eraph of the day is not able to retain perfect color values, to say nothing of the tints themselves. The best that the camera can accom- plish has been placed at the service of the publisher, in this work, and the result is a portfolio of beautifully reproduced effects of our new wall papers. The particular sketch which we have chosen to grace the opposite page consists of a gray (bow-knot) ribbon panelled over a gray cham- bray. Above the continuous trim moulding the chambray repeats itself to the ceiling angle and there another ribbon border is appliqued over it, The latter border resembles the panel border except in the addition of roses that in effect appear to have been carelessly thrown upon it at equal intervals.

The fine quality of exterior architecture and excellent interior deco- rations has enabled many charming structures to be reared and to last into our times. Watch the church building with anxious care; guard it as best you may and at any cost from every influence of dilapidation. Count its stones as you would jewels of a crown, bind it together where it loosens, brighten it with new colors where it declines and do this reverently and continually, and many a generation will still be born and pass away beneath its shadow. Somewhat in this spirit, happily, have most of our churches been safeguarded from destruction, though not everywhere, and the preser- vation of the interiors of many must be attributed to the watchful zeal of those who worship within them. Patrons may avail themselves of the services of our “special’’ Dec- orative Department (Dept. D.), where skilled designers are ever ready to submit designs that are artistically and ecclesiastically correct in every detail. Upon request samples and drawings will be submitted and we feel confident that the completion of the interior will greatly surpass the beauty of the samples and sketches. It is earnestly solicited that your request be accompanied with rough drawings of the wall and ceiling spaces or at least the sizes of each, so that we can better accomplish our treatments.
