Tuscan Escapes is a spectacular celebration of one the best-loved and most alluring regions of Italy. Featuring an array of beautiful homes from across the region, the book is divided into four parts, each paying tribute to a different style of home. Natural Charm features rustic houses, characterized by an earthy decorative palette, whose interior design is rooted in the ancient rural traditions of Tuscany. Stylish Simplicity looks at modern interpretations of Tuscan style – from a high-ceilinged barn, now a light and airy loft, to a converted village school. Classic Elegance focuses on larger country homes, restored according to a grand decorative design, yet still remaining warm and welcoming, while Idyllic Artistry is devoted to a more eclectic, colourful approach to Tuscan living. Combining inspiration with a wealth of practical suggestions, Tuscan Escapes offers myriad ideas for interior design and decoration that can easily be recreated in your home.

Tuscany is a place where majestic landscapes mingle with a unique cultural heritage and endless delights for the senses. Based on the experiences of some of those lucky enough to have made it their home, Tuscan Escapes by Caroline Clifton-Mogg features an array of beautiful homes from across the region. The book is divided into four parts, each paying tribute to a different style of home: Natural Charm, Stylish Simplicity, Classic Elegance and Idyllic Artistry.

For those who have never had the pleasure of a Tuscan sojourn, the simple idea of it is exhilarating; for those who have, the slightest reminder sends a flood of passionate memories rushing to the head. In other words, it is a place that is as mythical in reality as in imagination. Traversing the landscapes, homes, and interiors of the region, this book captures the essence of Tuscany in all its old world magnificence.

This lavishly illustrated book presents the interiors of more than twenty Tuscan homes owned by some of the most renowned artists in the world today, among them Pietro Cascella, Sandro Chia, Isanna Generali, Igor Mitoraj and Gianni Ruffi.

The book documents a variety of housing types, from villas and country homes to refurbished industrial buildings and castles, setting the stage for fascinating juxtapositions of architecture and design, and demonstrating wildly differing approaches to restoration and remodelling. Anyone seeking original design ideas will find this sumptuous book a rich source of inspiration.

While they work within a framework of structures and interiors saturated with Tuscan culture, all the artists draw deeply on their own creativity and cultural backgrounds to create distinctive, often stunning, houses. Here, they elaborate on their themes, aspirations and inspirations in specially commissioned portraits of themselves at home or in the studio.

Mariella Sgaravatti sheds light on the ways in which each interior has been adapted to reflect the owner’s personal vision, while Mario Ciampi’s photographs vividly convey the ambience created by each artist.

    Why do people feel drawn to Tuscany?
    Because of the timeless beauty of the scenery, of course, with its cypresses and olive trees with their unusual colours and ever-changing forms.
But also because of the ancient culture, which goes back to the Etruscans and the Romans.
There is also the knowledge of life that can be read in the magnificence and detachment of the faces of the Tuscans, who defy the rough, yet generous countryside around them.
And finally: the authenticity. This seems to have withstood the test of time and it gives a new, true meaning to our existence.
    This book is not just a collection of articles on authentic, tastefully restored houses.
    It is primarily the reflection of the passion of men and women who, one day, fell in love with a ruin in Tuscany: a pieve, or parish church, with origins in the fifth century, an eleventh-century fortified tower, an eighteenth-century casa colonica, a castle with Etruscan origins, an ancient farmhouse... Every report shows the passion of the new owners for the rich history of their country house and their respect for something that was once glorious, but that has not withstood the centuries.
    Everyone who wants to renovate in an authentic way feels this respect, which in a sense prevents us from giving totally free rein to our creativity. The result is then permeated with strong emotion, with tremendous intensity: moments of grace and perfect bliss that the new owners have found in Tuscany.
