Today Tokyo is the largest city in the world. The image of the city, notwithstanding the widespread globalisation process, is very different to what we are accustomed to in Europe, America and also in other Asian countries. The visual and cultural shock is strong: it appears extremely vast, uncontrollable, indecipherable, incommunicable, and chaotic.
Tokyo is one of the few global cities, and, like London, New York and perhaps one or two others, is part of a real trans-national system. It is an extraordinary capital of contemporary architecture and, at the same time, constitutes an exceptional urban phenomenon that is impossible not to study with great interest. More importantly is the fact that, behind an apparently abstract debate, the city poses a substantial problem: does it represent the final decay of the Western city or rather is it something completely different, a city with its own deep-rooted historical diversity and specific cultural independence that has not been substantially modified by the powerful and recent hybridisation with the West? And also, does the city interest us for these reasons or rather because it is/appears to be the city which – not being a part of the Eastern tradition – has, more than any other place, embraced the challenge of the new millennium and projected itself into the future, spurring rapid change with the energy, recklessness and aggression that is possible only in a place that has never been part of a tradition, to the point that it has substantiated a new symbolic form in the urban phenomenology of the twenty-first century?
In an age when houses exhibiting unchecked exuberance, high drama, or conspicuous luxury get all the attention, leading interior designer Tom Scheerer has cultivated a more restrained brand of chic, a look he modestly describes as “cheerful” and “no nonsense.” But it is so much more. In Manhattan apartments, Brooklyn brownstones, Bahamian seaside cottages, and Maine country houses, Scheerer creates rooms that are crisp, confident, classic, and unfailingly correct, but also visually enthralling. His sophistication is extreme, but it is accessible, relaxed, and a touch “underbaked,” as Scheerer says, because he thinks the smartest rooms are always a little underdecorated.
The magic is in the way Scheerer combines classic, old-fashioned decorating with modernist touches à la Albert Hadley and Billy Baldwin, but with a keener attention to natural materials, unpretentious vernacular crafts, and the prettiest colour combinations this side of India. He cherishes the simplest, least manipulated fabrics — cottons, linens, dimities — and loves certain inexpensive accents as much as he does truly fine ones. All this adds up to fresh, relaxed interiors that look like no others. Exquisitely photographed, this is the long-awaited first book of Scheerer’s work, and it’s a must for all lovers of interior design.
A trove of master interior designer Tom Scheerer’s latest projects, from city apartments to summer houses to tropical getaways, in his signature style—sophisticated, yet relaxed and unpretentious
In Tom Scheerer’s second book, 16 of his latest projects are featured, including:
- city houses and apartments in New York, Dallas, Houston, and Paris
- summer houses in Nantucket, the Hamptons, and Maine
- tropical houses in Harbour Island, Antigua, and Abaco
Each project exudes a serenity and a sense of comfort and ease that derives from its perfect proportions combined with fresh, unpretentious beauty. It all seems completely effortless, belying the fierce intelligence and impeccable eye behind every decorating decision.
Illustrated with Francesco Lagnese’s luminous photographs, Tom Scheerer: More Decorating is a master class in interior design for aficionados and practiced professionals alike.

Перший великий огляд діяльності провідного садового дизайнера Великої Британії Тома Стюарта-Сміта
«Сад може бути місцем, де відчуття інакшості, природи та місця настільки сильне, що ми маємо потужне усвідомлення того, що ми не господарі всього, що ми спостерігаємо, а учасники більшої драми… Те, що я роблю як дизайнер, — це запускаю процес, ніби штовхаю човен у воду» Том Стюарт-Сміт
Ландшафтний архітектор і садовий дизайнер Том Стюарт-Сміт розпочав власну практику в Лондоні в 1998 році. Відомий тим, що вміло поєднує натуралізм із сучасністю та створює форми з романтичними рослинами, Стюарт-Сміт проектував сади, парки та ландшафти в Європі, Індії, Марокко, Сполучених Штатах та Карибському басейні. Маючи таких клієнтів, як Королівське садівниче товариство, Королівська академія мистецтв та Її Величність Королева Єлизавета II, він зарекомендував себе як один з провідних ландшафтних дизайнерів Великої Британії з міжнародною репутацією у створенні садів, що відповідають їхньому ширшому ландшафтному оточенню.
Книга Tom Stuart-Smith: Drawn from the Land містить двадцять чотири проекти Стюарта-Сміта з усього світу та є першим великим оглядом його кар'єри, з критичним вступом та есе провідного садівничого письменника Тіма Річардсона. Два есе самого дизайнера розкривають його вплив та методи, його думки про сади та садівництво, а також те, як він підходить до своїх проектів. Малювання є важливою частиною творчості Стюарта-Сміта, і кожен сад ілюстровано оглядовим малюнком, а також вражаючими фотографіями на замовлення. Описові тексти розміщують кожен проект у контексті та пояснюють, як елементи та посадки поєднуються, створюючи багаті та багатошарові ландшафти. Ілюстрована хронологія робіт Стюарта-Сміта на сьогоднішній день доповнює цей огляд.
Пропонуючи унікальний погляд на ландшафтний дизайн та посадки, ця книга надасть натхнення та ідеї любителям садівництва та професіоналам, відкриваючи творчі можливості для проектування просторів від найменших до найграндіозніших.
