Книги по дизайну интерьеров

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.

Do our surroundings really make a difference in how we feel? In the harmony with which we conduct our daily lives? In our exploration of our personal, professional and spiritual paths? The answer, as shown in The Art of Dramatic Living: Personalizing the Home through Good Design, is a resounding "Yes!" Form, color, texture, light, proportion and material -- as well as cleanliness and order -- are powerful tools for expressing who we really are. In these pages, Dr. Carol Soucek King visits more than thirty residences around the world in which good design echoes the identity of those who live there. A house in Israel connects an active family with their cherished land and the sea beyond. A rustic lodge/camp dwelling in Texas celebrates its owners' retreat from urban life to a setting amid oak trees, creeks and hills. In Italy, a bachelor pares down the size of his living space and number of possessions but not his full expression of his devotion to music, lyrical spaces and elegant entertaining. In Tokyo, a Japanese entrepreneur creates a background to share his interests in global business and fine art with visiting business leaders and diplomats as well as his family. A couple in Sydney, Australia, uses every aspect of their home's historic site and style as background for their thoroughly up-to-the-minute interests and worldwide travels. Today's homeowners want to shape their house to their lifestyle, not adapt their lifestyle to the home. An individual's home is a mirror of their inner self and a person's environment affects their mind, body and spirit. This book goes beyond design to health and well-being. In these and an array of other homes, Dr. King shows how a variety of people in vastly different circumstances have realized that, in creating a home, one is creating one's own universe, and that in order to live life to its fullest, one should make the most of all the tools of good design.

Unmistakably French, the fifth book in Betty Lou Phillips' best-selling series on interpreting French décor for American homes, broadens yet again the limits of what French style can do for a home. No matter the location or size of the room to be decorated, the French rarely stray from favored and well-known characteristics of design-eighteenth-century furniture, sumptuous textiles, distinctive porcelains, and oil paintings in original carved-wood frames. In Phillips' newest book, she defines some of these specific secrets that French designers use to create an authentic French look-these certain basic decorating values they hold dear, seducing us with their self-assured approach to glamour, culture, and enduring respect for history. The book includes four sections: Passion for French, Art of Living, Savoir-Faire, and Fluent French. The style and settings seen in these contemporary homes, while American, are Unmistakably French! Betty Lou Phillips, ASID, is a renowned designer and the best-selling author of Provencal Interiors, French by Design, French Influences, and Villa Décor. She lives in Dallas, Texas.
