In recent years, Saint-Tropez, a heavenly spot on the French Côte d’Azur, has evolved into one of the most sophisticated holiday destinations for the Jet set. Initially, under the impetus of the many celebrities and wealthy citizens who lived there during the summer months, many luxurious holiday homes were built in a Provencal or Italian-inspired style in Saint-Tropez. Lately, this has changed: under the influence of local architects but also of the cosmopolitan population of the port town a resolutely contemporary design, both sober and timeless, pure and modern was resolutely chosen.

The renowned interior designer Sandra Cerfontaine, the creator of Alessandra Home Interiors in Saint-Tropez, introduces us to the exciting world of contemporary design in her home town: exclusive, never-before photographed homes that bathe in a contemporary and timeless atmosphere. A unique source of inspiration for anyone wanting to settle on the Côte d’Azur. With an introduction by Daniel Hechter, the celebrated French couturier, who also guides us first through his own home in Saint-Tropez.

A house on the sea is something that many people dream of.

Villas designed by famous architects like Poul & Hanne Kjærholm are presented, but also low-budget paradises built by the owners themselves, including a kind of Robinson Crusoe hut hidden in the tropical jungle on the coast of Costa Rica.

Explore the fabled beauty of Sera Hersham-Loftus's renowned interior decorations. The innovator of the seductive boudoir trend, Sera shows us the best of her design style adapted to a wide range of settings, including her own home, which has become one of the most popular locations for fashion, celebrity and interiors photo shoots. She has transformed everyday rooms into dream-like parlours and intimate hideaways, drawing on the idea of seductive meeting places for romantic rendez-vous as inspiration. Sera's elegantly Bohemian and hedonistic atmospheres are laced with an edgy rock'n'roll feel, attracting a cult following for her style all over the world. Intoxicating mixtures of crumbling antique furniture alongside huge blown-up black and white photos of her favourite rock stars fill the space. Both dark and light salons take on an air of seduction once decorated with Sera's trademark touches, from the enchanting soft lighting created by her 'Rude' lampshades - fashioned out of lingerie laces and trimmed with exotic chandelier drops - to her exquisite handmade wallpapers, inspired by opulent Parisian style. Including stunning photography by Gisela Torres, this provocative book perfectly epitomizes the spirit of Sera's seductive interiors - intensely sensual, delightfully playful, sublimely elegant and always filled with soul.

Современный интерьерный рынок переполнен решениями – от классических до концептуально-абстрактных, и это делает безумно сложной задачу создания чего-то пригодного для эксплуатации, но при этом небанального. Мастерская Эстрина справляется с этим великолепно: среди множества ее проектов нет ни одного, который не соответствовал бы своей функции с точностью до миллиметра, при этом оставаясь неповторимым. Такой эффект достигается благодаря тому, что в основе работы Мастерской лежит простой принцип: каждый проект должен, как человек, иметь свой собственный характер, отражающийся в каждой детали. Именно поэтому тщательной проработке подвергаются не только сама концепция объекта, но и материалы для его реализации. Если того требуют идея и характер, новый материал всегда можно изобрести. Самое большое достоинство Мастерской Эстрина – умение одинаково блистательно делать и пентхаузы, и бюджетные офисы. Это делает их привлекательными как для крупного и малого бизнеса, так и для частного заказчика. А это, согласитесь, дорогого стоит.
