Jeffrey Simpson, Sarah Cumming Cecil
ID: 9123
Видавництво: Rizzoli

Rose Cumming was the most flamboyant and exciting of the so-called Great Lady Decorators who invented the field of professional decorating and interior design in the early twentieth century. Flavored by surrealism and suffused with drama, her interiors were sumptuous, mixing bold colors and patterns. Her own library had emerald-green walls, a peacock -blue satin sofa, and scarlet japanned chairs. 

Cumming’s famous New York decorating and antiques shop became a stopping point for celebrated personalities such as the Duke and Duchess of Windsor, Andy Warhol, Rudolf Nureyev, and Jacqueline Onassis. Encompassing styles from gothic, Venetian, and Austrian baroque to early Oriental furniture, Cumming would add glittering chandeliers, birdcages, and fine carpets. Her glamorous style was reminiscent of film sets, and Marlene Dietrich and Norma Shearer were among her clients. 

This book, the first on Cumming, is a richly illustrated volume of a great American artist, whose influence is manifest in the ongoing production of Cumming-designed fabrics and wallpapers. Rose Cumming will inspire the interior designer and home decorator, both professional and amateur alike.

Привілейована можливість побачити роботи Роуз Уніаке у формі приватної екскурсії її лондонським будинком — місцем випробовування всіх її дизайнерських ідей — у її першій книзі, виданій обмеженим тиражем 2500 примірників.

Повітряна та легка, ніжна та міцна, грандіозна та інтимна, сира та розкішна: це лише деякі з якостей та суперечностей, що резонують у творчості та домі Роуз Уніаке. Цей розкішний том, перший про дизайнерку, був задуманий разом з Уніаке за її індивідуальними вимогами.

Майстерно сфотографована Франсуа Аларом, книга розгортається один за одним як серія привілейованих поглядів всередину будинку Уніаке, а власні слова дизайнерки є нашим орієнтиром — інтимний та ексклюзивний портрет будинку, до якого рідко хто мав доступ, а також вікно в творчість одного з наших провідних дизайнерських умів.

Її роботи вирізняються теплотою, характером та надзвичайним спокоєм, і, відображаючи ці якості, книга є розкішним предметом, виготовленим з тих самих матеріалів, що й у будинку Уніаке: унікальний чохол з бавовняного полотна містить саму книгу, обгорнуту чистою новою вовною. Доповнюють цю незамінну книгу в історії дизайну тексти архітектора будинку Уніаке Вінсента Ван Дуйсена та її ландшафтного архітектора Тома Стюарта-Сміта.

Про авторів:

Роуз Уніаке — дизайнерка архітектурних інтер'єрів; дизайнерка сучасних меблів, освітлення та текстилю; а також торговка антикваріатом. Еліс Роусторн — лауреатка премій у галузі дизайну та письменниця. Вінсент Ван Дуйсен заснував Vincent Van Duysen Architects у 1989 році. Протягом понад 30 років фотографії Франсуа Алара регулярно з'являлися у Vogue, Apartamento, T Magazine та Cabana, серед інших видань. Том Стюарт-Сміт заснував свою практику ландшафтного дизайну у 1998 році.

Безпрецедентний рівень майстерності – ключова риса дизайнерського духу Уніаке, що демонструється в цій довгоочікуваній монографії про видатні будинки, які вона створила.

Затребувана лондонська дизайнерка інтер'єрів та меблів Роуз Уніаке чудово демонструє низку будинків, які вона спроектувала, з чистими лініями та спокійними, світлими просторами, а також виставковими залами, що визначають легке поєднання традиційних деталей із сучасними просторами. Незалежно від того, чи це міський таунхаус, приморський затишок чи лондонська вілла, підхід Уніаке завжди однаковий – співпраця з клієнтами для створення стриманих, вишуканих святилищ, які пропонують ідеальні умови для повсякденного життя. Книга розкішно ілюстрована двома сотнями кольорових фотографій, які справді відображають спокій та позачасовість витонченого стилю Уніаке, вирізьбленого вручну.

Сторінки цієї книги випромінюють те саме тепло інтер'єру Уніаке, підсилене власними словами авторки, коли вона детально описує особливості кожного з одинадцяти досліджуваних проектів. Результат схожий на неформальну розмову, в якій Уніаке повертається до своєї подорожі, щоб поділитися інстинктами та натхненням. Цей елегантний том доповнює покажчик Rose Uniacke Editions, меблів, освітлення та текстилю дизайнерки.

Про авторів:

Роуз Уніаке — архітектурний дизайнер інтер'єрів, дизайнер меблів та освітлення, а також торговець антикваріатом. Вона та її команда працюють на міжнародному рівні, але базуються в Пімліко, в центрі Лондона. Еліс Роусторн, кавалер Ордена Британської імперії, — лауреатка премій, дизайнерська критикиня та авторка книг про дизайн, що отримали схвальні відгуки критиків. Франсуа Алар вже понад тридцять років регулярно пише статті для American Vogue, Apartamento, T Magazine та Cabana, серед інших видань. Саймон Аптон подорожує світом, знімаючи людей та їхні домівки від імені великих журналів та видавництв, включаючи World of Interiors, Architectural Digest, Cabana, Elle Decor (США), Vanity Fair та Vogue.

Pamela Smart and Stephen Fox, Foreword by Christopher Rothko, Introduction by David Leslie
ID: 16326
Видавництво: Rizzoli

A first look at the recently restored Rothko Chapel, a world-renowned destination for spiritual renewal, with all-new photography and scholarship of the renovated building and campus, published on the occasion of its 50th anniversary.

The Rothko Chapel -- home to 14 monumental modernist paintings by the pioneer Abstract Expressionist Mark Rothko--is an interfaith sacred space dedicated to global human rights, art, and spirituality, located in Houston. The Chapel was founded in 1971 by arts patrons and philanthropists Dominique and John de Menil, who placed their utmost faith in Rothko's vision to express the profound, the miraculous, and regard for the sanctity of the human spirit in this oasis for the intellect and the spirit.

Through photographic testimony and the insights of scholars, this large-format volume gives an intimate look at this sacred space, where visitors seek solace and inspiration within this truly ecumenical sanctuary featuring Rothko's iconic paintings. Pamela Smart discusses the spiritual side and Stephen Fox puts the architecture in the context of Houston.

The Chapel has been reworked within an expanded campus to enhance the experience for its many visitors. As viewers sit in stillness or move about the Chapel's serene octagonal enclosure, the reinstalled skylight better reveals the nuances of Rothko's powerful panels and allows for better connection to the outdoors as conditions shift, such as when clouds pass above.

About the Author:

Pamela Smart is Associate Professor of Anthropology and Art History at Binghamton University. Stephen Fox is an architectural historian and a Fellow of the Anchorage Foundation of Texas. Christopher Rothko is the second of Mark and Mary Alice Rothko's two children.

Rowdy Meadow showcases an art-filled, Cubism-inspired house set in an extensive sculpture park.

Welcome to Rowdy Meadow, a visionary house that is a complete work of art—from its architecture, interior design, furnishings, and collection of contemporary art to its landscape architecture and private sculpture park. Inspired by Czech cubism, it is unlike any other house anywhere. Designed and decorated by Peter Pennoyer Architects in Hunting Valley, Ohio, it is a structure of tremendous complexity made to feel simple and calm by Pennoyer’s mastery of the language of this style.

Inside, Anne Walker guides the reader through the house, room by room, showcasing furnishings spanning the Arts and Crafts era through art deco, with pieces by Émile-Jacques Ruhlmann, Josef Hoffmann, Dagobert Peche, Eileen Gray, and Gio Ponti; and fine art by Walton Ford and James Lee Byars. She then tours the Reed Hilderbrand–designed landscape and sculpture park—with works by Anish Kapoor and Andy Goldsworthy—spread throughout the 146-acre property.

Illustrated with photographs taken throughout the seasons by Eric Piasecki that capture Rowdy Meadow’s unique detailing, imagination, and energy, as well as with renderings and drawings, the book itself is an extraordinary achievement.

Drawing on the early 20th-century tradition of the safari, they have reinvigorated the experience with access to parts of Africa previously out of bounds, notably Rwanda, Namibia, and Zimbabwe. These new camps and lodges reinvent the safari and represent a fresh approach to wildlife conservation involving local populations.

First survey of modernist and contemporary architecture and interiors in the richly layered architectural history of Santa Fe

Santa Fe Modern reveals the high desert landscape as an ideal setting for bold, abstracted forms of modernist houses. Wide swaths of glass, deep-set portals, long porches, and courtyards allow vistas, color, and light to become integral parts of the very being of a house, emboldening a way to experience a personal connection to the desert landscape. The architects featured draw from the New Mexican architectural heritage–they use ancient materials such as adobe in combination with steel and glass, and they apply this language to the proportions and demands exacted by today’s world. The houses they have designed are confident examples of architecture that is particular to the New Mexico landscape and climate, and yet simultaneously evoke the rigorous expressions of modernism. The vigor and the allure of modern art and architecture hearten each other in a way that is visible and exciting, and this book demonstrates the synergistic relationship between art, architecture, and the land.

Видавництво: Rizzoli

The first book from SawyerBerson illustrates the award-winning firm’s quintessential pairings of modernism and classicism in seaside houses, metropolitan residences, and spectacular garden retreats.

Treating architecture, landscape, and interior design as complementary endeavors, Brian Sawyer and John Berson have been ahead of their time and influential in the world of design since the founding of their eponymous partnership in 1999. SawyerBerson’s prodigious use of traditional and modern vocabularies has gained the firm widespread recognition and many notable clients. Meticulous attention to detail and versatility combine to create a wide variety of projects.

In the Hamptons, a modernist house of stone and glass lets in the sun and sea views while secluded by the dunes and drifts of native grasses. Another residence is built according to the pinwheel floor plans of early twentieth-century houses by Mies van der Rohe and Frank Lloyd Wright to accommodate four primary suites around a central common area with plenty of space for entertaining and individual relaxation. Yet another project, equally arresting, is a Colonial Revival cedar-shingled house and seaside landscape built for multiple generations. Whether restoring a historic Georgian Revival town house in Manhattan, designing a modernist residence in the country, or planning a garden by the ocean, the practice embraces traditional and contemporary styles with equal distinction.

About the Authors:

Brian Sawyer and John Berson — whose backgrounds are in landscape architecture and architecture, respectively — met when both were working at Robert A.M. Stern Architects. Their combined design philosophy guides SawyerBerson, an AD100 firm. Mayer Rus is the West Coast editor of Architectural Digest.

School building architecture has greatly gained in pedagogical significance during the last years. Students of the 21st century have access to increasingly more workspaces customized for various studies, rooms for teamwork and cafeterias. Multi-functional communal spaces, exhibition spaces and sports facilities also play an important role in education.

Creating spaces that take into account both students' educational needs and their well-being is one of the most exciting and challenging tasks of contemporary school building design. School presents international projects which set themselves apart not only with their modern architectural vocabulary but also with their architects’ hope of being their contribution to the improvement of educational standards.

ID: 15816
Видавництво: Rizzoli

A stunning volume that gathers the California designer's most impressive works to date, from coastal sanctuaries to modern country farms.

A master of his genre, Scott Mitchell is celebrated for his warm approach to connecting the built and natural environment. Sought after for their minimalist, material-driven aesthetic, Mitchell's houses are studies in space, materiality, and light. Emphasizing an elegant spatial order, his projects respond to the natural appeal of their locations, be they bucolic retreats on Long Island or resplendent beach houses overlooking the Pacific Ocean.

The first volume on his work, Scott Mitchell Houses is a sublime exploration of the architectural designer's impressive portfolio of projects. Dynamic compositions of light and shadow with a masterful use of concrete, Mitchell's monolithic forms draw on the surrounding environment via floor-to-ceiling windows that open onto vistas so cinematic that Tom Ford utilized one of Mitchell's homes in his neo-noir film Nocturnal Animals.

Through previously unpublished photographs, readers are given an exclusive view into eight pivotal projects that span the globe from the Hamptons to Melbourne, featuring images by Ross Bleckner, Scott Frances, Trevor Mein, and Steve Shaw. Sure to appeal to fans of architecture and interiors, this book is an ode to a becalming modern luxury.

Beautifully illustrated with line drawings and photographs, engagingly presented, and richly detailed, this charming guide traces the architectural and social history of Manhattan one building at a time. The island of Manhattan has been through remarkable architectural and social change throughout its history. Organized roughly by neighborhoods, this book explores the seemingly never-ending depths of architectural, personal, and social history of Manhattan, building by building. Follow the family feud that led to the construction of the luxurious Waldorf Astoria, or trace the decay of a once proud home to an increasingly humble storefront, delving into the surprising, sometimes scandalous, often touching stories of the people who lived there along the way. Alongside the details about each architect, dates, and styles, author Tom Miller reveals the joys, tragedies, and scandals of those who lived within. In addition to iconic structures, the book includes many off-the-beaten-path buildings that most guidebooks overlook, as well as notable buildings that no longer stand but remain key to Manhattan’s architectural history. Beautifully researched, engagingly presented, and richly detailed, Seeking New York is truly a must-read for anyone interested in the story of New York and how it got that way.

About the Author:

Tom Miller moved to New York City in 1979 from Dayton, Ohio, bringing with him a passion for buildings. He currently holds the rank of deputy inspector within the NYPD’s Auxiliary Police Force. In 2009 he started a blog, Daytonian in Manhattan, which has now reviewed over a thousand buildings, statues, and other points of interest.
