Tryckta omslag med färgillustration, en fint ex. med högst obetydliga yttre bruksspår. ''Sandbergs text är så väl genomtänkt och motiverad, och vi hör tidens auktoriteter tala genom den. Ruskin, Lichtwark, Ellen Key och Forsslund finns mellan raderna. Där finns hygienism, soldyrkan, krav på individualism, tal om anslutning till natur och traditionella byggnadssätt. England skymtar som ursprungsland. Clason, Östberg och Westman är troligen Sandbergs svenska auktoriteter.
