Is there a signature Rochon style? At first, it is difficult to tell because the designer always adapts his work to the environment in which it unfolds, bringing out the locations unique spirit. A great traveler, he blends international styles, borrowing from both modern and classical influences. Hailed as a visionary designer and master of grand luxe by the Financial Times How To Spend It, Rochons most prestigious commissions include Four Seasons Hotelsin Paris, Florence, Washington, and Cairo, for exampleand restaurants for several Michelin-starred chefs. This monographRochons firstreveals the designers trademark approach to interior splendor. For him, the quality of the object and the hand that made it is essential for creating a sumptuous interior. He devotes attention to every detail, from the architecture, to the furniture, the lighting, the fabrics, and art objects. Where he inserts a new structure into a space, such as a fireplace or a column, it feels like it has always been there. His interiors thus exude harmony and comfort, while retaining a strong sense of the locations culture, geography, and history. The genius of this designer lies in his ability to make each interior feel like a second home. From bedrooms to living rooms, and from bathrooms to spas, Pierre-Yves Rochon creates comfortable and intimate interiors that show us how we might create our own luxurious décors in our homes. The address book compiled by Rochon brings together the very best artisans with whom he has worked for many years: cabinet makers, bronze makers, lighting experts, upholsterers, and more.

For the last two decades, Mona Hajj has been crafting interiors that combine a global vision with an American emphasis on elegance, comfort, and simplicity. Hajj’s body of work is grounded in classicism yet influenced by the contemporary; her international upbringing - she was born in Africa and educated in Europe, Lebanon, and the United States - is evidenced in exceptional rugs, antiques, and fixtures.

Interior Visions showcases Hajj’s distinct and distinctly original aesthetic voice. Beautifully photographed projects - from a beach house in Delaware to a John Russell Pope–designed house in Baltimore, from an apartment in New York City to the Embassy of Luxembourg in Washington, D.C. - display a thoughtful treatment of architecture, color, and lighting, as well as an eye for the defining detail. Among the myriad culturally and historically diverse adornments are Persian rugs, Flemish tapestries, Japanese screens, Italian chandeliers, and Chinese chargers. Finally, two residences presented in great detail - the author’s own apartment in a historic Baltimore building and an expansive horse farm in Kentucky - demonstrate a vision that is at once specific and inclusive, personal and grand, intimate and sumptuous.
