Every day we surround ourselves and fill our homes with designs and objects of beauty that enhance our quality of life. What we choose reflects who we are and what we care about. It has always been so. In the 18th-century, colonial Americans brought a new look to the decorative arts. European styles were modified into something distinctively American as each new generation created objects to meet their own needs. As designers of every generation have done, we adapt designs from the past to suit contemporary lifestyles.

Winterthur Museum & Country Estate is the former country estate of Henry Francis du Pont (1880-1969), an avid antiques collector and horticulturist. Du Pont was a passionate collector of early American antiques, which are now displayed in 175 rooms as well as exhibition galleries. He also worked with staff to design the world-renowned Winterthur Garden. For directions and information, please call 800.448.3883, TTY 302.888.4907, or visit [ www.winterthur.org]
