Книги з дизайну інтер'єрів

Simultaneously defining and being defined by its surroundings, the town house is one of the most fascinating and innovative housing possibilities of today. The book offers a selection of recent projects that outstand in their creative interpretation of the contemporary urban home.

The town house (a house with a party wall) is one of the most interesting and innovative urban phenomena in the current architectural panorama, whose origins lead back to palaces and the mansions of wealthy families who fled their feudal conflicts and preferred the tranquility of the cities. These days, the town house is without doubt becoming a typology on the rise in the constant search for unique living spaces. In urban areas, it is the perfect solution to fill the niches, corners and tiny sites that are quite common in the city grid.

Inner cities are experiencing a newed boom, the demand for 21st century living spaces in today’s renaissance of urban centralization is on the rise. So for the past few years, many architects have been rediscovering and creatively reinterpreting the aestetic and functional potentials of townhouses. The modern buildings achieve the same functions on the scant inner city plot as their historic archetypes, but distinguish themselves using a contemporary architectural language. Some of the most spectacular projects reach considerable heights and extend the traditional concept of the townhouse to new dimensions.

«Краса поєднується з якістю життя». Це мантра, яку Девід Кляйнберг взяв під час своєї шістнадцятирічної роботи в поважній дизайнерській фірмі Parish-Hadley, і саме ця мантра керувала його власною фірмою David Kleinberg Design Associates, коли вона піднялася на вершину ієрархії дизайну інтер’єру. У Traditional Now,, першій книзі про його творчість, він демонструє значення цих слів у більш ніж двадцяти проектах.

Творчість Кляйнберга відрізняється різноманітністю стилю, але завжди сучасною чутливістю; кожна резиденція відкалібрована відповідно до потреб і смаків її мешканців. Вибране поєднання антикваріату, тканин, текстур, оздоблення, мистецтва та предметів є ключовим для вражаючих кімнат, які він розробляє. Клейнберг пояснює свій підхід у вдумливих коментарях до кожного проекту, торкаючись ширших питань дизайну інтер’єру – з чого почати? як визначається колірна палітра? який план меблів? як ви вибираєте антикварні речі? - продумано та інформативно. І він пропонує велику кількість інсайдерської інформації, отриманої за його довгу кар’єру:

У кожній квартирі або будинку повинна бути зв'язна нитка, яка починається від вхідних дверей і продовжується до коридору. Це дизайнерський еквівалент сліду хлібних крихт. . . Люди завжди турбуються про змішування антикваріату з репродукціями. Головне – поважати масштаб антикваріату. . . У декоруванні більшість людей асоціюють фактуру тільки з тканиною; фактично всі матеріали мають текстуру.

Серед проектів, представлених у Traditional Now,, серія розкішних нью-йоркських квартир і таунхаусів - дуплекс на П'ятій авеню з приголомшливими сходами кольору слонової кістки, таунхаус на Іст-Сайді з колекцією післявоєнного мистецтва, драматичний дуплекс Tribeca, а також будинки в Коннектикуті, Лонг-Айленді та Флориді та острівна вілла на Мюстіке. У вступі представлено курс Кляйнберга як дизайнера, який розпочався з літньої роботи в Denning & Fourcade і закінчився його перебуванням у Parish-Hadley. Нарешті Кляйнберг відкриває двері до своїх власних резиденцій, від 250 квадратних футів данини індустріальному шику 1970-х до його нинішньої квартири у вишуканому довоєнному будинку, уособлення дизайну його минулого та дизайну його майбутнього.

The book is divided into style sections: floral, painterly, geometric, classics, silks, and tropical. The author draws on examples from her own designs to demonstrate the impact pattern has on the energy and mood of a room and how to use pattern with confidence.

Truly a feast for the eye, the book features layers of pattern and color, a stunning binding with several different materials and textures, and three different types of paper.

Tropical Design is not an established architectural style, but a collective description of architecture and interior design in tropical countries, designed by architects from around the equator. Rooted in the traditional style of architecture that is typical in these countries and influenced by the European modern style, a unique architectural language has developed that reflects contemporary tendencies and corresponds to the climatic requirements. As multifaceted as nature in the tropical regions, the architecture in the projects presented here is just as diversified.

From " Las Terrazas" by Legoretta+Legoretta glowing under the Mexican sun to the romantic "Anantara" on the Maledives Island to the spacious and modern "LPVM House" by Biselli e Katchborian in Brasil - the book offers a small insight into the contemporary style from tropical countries. An index of contact information of the designer and architects is enclosed.
