An insider’s tour of the most creative and inspiring rooms belonging to tastemakers — artists, interior designers, craftspeople, collectors, and aristocrats — in Italy today. Italy has been a source of inspiration for generations of artists and lovers of beauty. In this book, Italians Oberto Gili and Marella Caracciolo Chia take us around the country and into the homes of some of its most stylish habitués. From rural estates in Tuscany and spectacular seaside villas to an eighteenth-century palace in Puglia and city residences in Turin, Milan, Venice, Rome, and Naples, the properties reveal the unique personal visions of the owners and the inescapable appeal of Italian style. The diversity of places echoes the wide range of geographical contexts. Each interior acts as a source of surprise and an impetus for creativity, reflecting the individual tastes and talents of those who live and have lived there — designer Carlo Mollino, couturier Stephan Janson, art and literary scholar Mario Praz, and artists Sandro Chia and Alessandro Twombly. In addition to the houses of artists and craftspeople, rooms of visionary interior designers, such as Camilla Guinness, Roberto Peregalli, and Laura Sartori Rimini, are also included. This book — an intimate glimpse into some of the most beautiful and inaccessible dwellings in Italy today — is perfect for aesthetically minded readers with an interest in interior design, Italy, and the art of fine living.

About the Authors:

Oberto Gili, an Italian photographer based in New York, has contributed to the leading interior design magazines and countless illustrated books. Marella Caracciolo Chia is a Rome-based writer and editor who has written for House & Garden, Architectural Digest, and other design and lifestyle publications.

In each of the ten projects featured — which include a townhouse in New York City, a country house in Massachusetts, and a beach house in Brazil — before and after shots document the agony and ecstasy of any renovation project, as well as revealing the design duo’s vision and remarkable ability to see through the most awful of spaces to the amazing home that lies within.

Combining sustainability with trendsetting design is one of the great challenges of contemporary architecture. In addition to an increased awareness of the interdependence of human beings, their built environment and the eco system, coupled with the desire of maintaining a livable and intact world for future generations and the wish for a healthy residential environment, economic considerations have considerably gained in significance in recent years. The creation of resource saving residential buildings is, therefore, an important and exciting task today.

The project selection of this volume includes more than 120 examples of all types, ranging from single family dwellings via apartment houses to entire estates. Depending on the type of project and its circumstances, a great variety of methods, procedures and techniques are applied. This publication shows the great variety of possibilities offered by established strategies as well as new and experimental approaches and highlights the interaction of an artistic expression and environmentally friendly technology.

The first book from celebrated interior and furniture designer Kate Hume.

Kate Hume's passion for interiors stems from her lifelong love affair with color and her respect for anything artisanal. Color, light, and texture inform all of Hume's projects to create a distinctive style that is casually luxurious; bold patterns are expressed in rich, elemental hues. Though color drives her design schemes, it is never dominant. For Hume there is no wrong color, only wrong combinations.

Hume's inimitable approach to design favors tactile materials such as linen, grass cloth, silk, jute, and impeccably sourced homespun fabrics. Unabashedly mixing different furniture genres, Hume prefers vintage over brand-new, considering for instance the best dining tables to look as if they've witnessed countless lunches and dinners. That is why she and her husband and collaborator, Frans van der Heijden, design their own pieces from sandblasted wood and brushed timbers where signs of age already exist. Exquisitely employing beautifully crafted furniture, intriguing objects, engaging color schemes, and seductive, ambient lighting, Hume consistently demonstrates her mastery of eclectic, warm, and sophisticated design.

This monograph dedicated to the most spectacular example of Parisian First Empire interior architecture retraces the history of the building and the lives of its residents.

The Hôtel de Beauharnais, constructed in 1713, gained renown during the Consulate period. In 1803, Josephine Bonaparte acquired the property for her son, Eugène de Beauharnais, and had the building renovated and decorated at great expense. At the fall of the Napoleonic Empire, it was sold to the King of Prussia and became an embassy during the nineteenth century. With its unique Consulate and Empire décor, the palace is an invaluable specimen of Parisian interior architecture.

The result of more than ten years of research and restoration work, this book recounts three centuries of European political history through the lives of the Hôtel’s successive owners.

A highly detailed look at the English country house interior, offering unprecedented access to England’s finest rooms. In this splendid book, renowned historian Jeremy Musson explores the interiors and decoration of the great country houses of England, offering a brilliantly detailed presentation of the epitome of style in each period of the country house, including the great Jacobean manor house, the Georgian mansion, and the Gothic Revival castle. For the first time, houses known worldwide for their exquisite architecture and decoration -- including Wilton, Chatsworth, and Castle Howard -- are seen in unprecedented detail.

Посібник з дизайну інтер'єру для створення стилю англійського заміського будинку, де б ви не жили, від експерта з нерухомості Кеті Кемпбелл та відомого фотографа Марка Ніколсона

Автори книги At Home in the Cotswolds повертаються з новою книгою, сповненою англійського шарму та стилістично підкованого стилю. English Country House Style досліджує фірмові кімнати та меблі, що є синонімом цього комфортного, розкішного житла.

Існують певні мотиви, унікальні для англійських заміських будинків. Це можуть бути конкретні кімнати, архітектурні деталі, декоративні елементи або розташування меблів, але всі вони безпомилково асоціюються з тим особливим та прекрасним ідеалом, яким є англійський дім у сільській місцевості. Ці риси не є виключно прерогативою великих заміських будинків. Багато з них можна знайти як у заміських котеджах, так і в садибах, і більшість із них можуть бути відтворені сучасними домовласниками у власних оселях у міських, приміських та сільських умовах.

Ця книга досліджує іконографію англійського заміського будинку та відкриває завісу над секретами дизайну інтер'єру, з більш ніж десятком розділів про різні мотиви заміських будинків, кожен з яких ілюстрований фотографіями, зробленими в приватних заміських будинках по всій Англії. Від кімнати для багажу до комори дворецького, від столика з напоями в бібліотеці до кухні AGA, кожен розділ розкриває всі дрібні деталі дизайну для читачів, які прагнуть зробити образ своїм власним або просто хочуть насолодитися англійським сільським життям.

Кожен стиль, від готичного й тюдорівського до котеджного, декоративно-прикладного мистецтва та палладіанського, представлено розкішними фотографіями, зібраними з багатого архіву Country Life, надзвичайно популярного 120-річного британського журналу про життя та життя в маєтках, замках і котеджах, які всюдисущі по всій сільській місцевості.

From the Third Coast comes this inspirational interiors book by award-winning interior designers Sandra Lucas and Sarah Eilers, who show us how to design inviting homes with a classical backbone that are stylish and versatile for today's living.

Native Houstonians Lucas and Eilers's aesthetic marries the entrepreneurial, can-do spirit of the West with Southern grace.

Whether traditional, contemporary, or transitional in style, the rooms they create are timeless.

The duo's seasoned insight into the principles and elements of interior design forms the book's heart. Touching on such topics as scale and proportion, color and light, and pattern and texture, they explore their pragmatic, imaginative approach to creating expressive living spaces in a diverse range of projects from coast to coast. They then tour us through several homes, including a comfortable family ski compound in Utah with repurposed rough-hewn wooden beams and custom forged-steel fireplace surrounds; a Houston shotgun home rich with patina; and a charming Gulf Coast beach house. For those passionate about interiors, this wealth of design fundamentals is inspirational.

The art of collecting — from artist’s palettes still freckled with oil paint, to sculpted picture frames, to a menagerie of wooden toy animals — associating an accumulation of kindred objects is at the core of timeless French style.

French artist, designer, and talented antique hunter Marin Montagut celebrates the joy of collecting everything from textiles to barware to architectural details, taking readers inside a dozen private homes, flea markets, and unusual ateliers to discover the most whimsical treasure troves in France. From a film prop house’s array of leather sporting goods and playing cards to a travel buff’s vintage maps and globes, and from a sculpture studio’s Grecian plaster casts to an amateur designer’s spiral staircase models, and from Montagut’s own wonder wall assemblages to a cook’s haven filled with porcelain dessert molds and copper pots — objects, when presented together as a series, create unforgettable interiors that radiate charm. Inspiration comes in repetition: wooden zigzag rulers with engraved numbers aligned on a wall in a herringbone pattern create an artful space. The spare wooden forms of capipotes — devotional statues used in religious processions, their eyes turned heavenward in ecstasy — and silver ex-votos can be the point of departure for the theme of an entire room. Montagut’s mood boards for each chapter provide endless ideas for the home.

About the Author:

Marin Montagut is French illustrator and designer; his eponymous boutique is dedicated to whimsical decorative objects.

The construction of a modern house becomes a tremendously appealing prospect for both the architect as well as the client, not only because in principle these projects respond to the basic needs of humans to take shelter from the elements, but also due to the fact they are a consequence of their surroundings and the environmental prerequisites required for any type of building these days.

This is why the frame in which these projects are presented here in this book allows for different ariations and "sensations": small and large-scale houses, low-cost projects, grandiose ideas, typologies set according to family elements, risky settings, far-flung locations, technological resources and above all, a markedly contemporary nature to each and every one of the projects.
