Over the past forty years, interior designer Tino Zervudachi has forged an impressive reputation internationally; his portfolio spans sumptuous homes all over the world, from Paris, London, and New York, to Los Angeles, Tokyo, and Rio de Janeiro.

Having honed his craft under British interiors legend David Mlinaric, Zervudachi designed his first house at age twenty-one. Since moving to Paris in 1990, he has continued to refine his bold yet elegant approach, revealing a rare sensitivity to texture and historical detail, as well as a love of artisanal excellence. In Zervudachi’s hands, even the most spectacular room gains a subtle, lived-in quality, while humbler rooms grow grand: a sleight of hand that has led to an illustrious client list including art collectors, business titans, and bohemian aristocrats. Featuring previously unpublished photographs, and insightful texts and interviews by author Natasha A. Fraser, this new book captures the designer’s sublime and singular world. Each project bears witness to the passion, precision, and curiosity that Zervudachi brings to his craft.

From a reimagined family château in France, an elegant beach house in the Bahamas, or a breathtaking ski chalet in the Alps, to a vintage motor yacht or a rustic Spanish finca transformed into an island retreat, this volume charts Zervudachi’s inimitable ability to magically transform his clients’ homes, enhancing their collections with his original color choices, mastery of light, and daring selection of furniture and textiles.

Over the past forty years, Tino Zervudachi has earned an international reputation for elegance. Sought-after for his bold approach and sensual classicism, he has established an illustrious clientele that includes some of the world’s most discerning titans of business, art collectors, and bohemian aristocrats, and his designs can be seen in sumptuous homes located around the world.

Zervudachi began his career with the British design legend David Mlinaric and designed his first house at just twenty-one years old. After moving to Paris in 1990, he continually refined his personal approach to interior design, and his work has become recognizable for its textured flare and historic references, accompanied by artisanal excellence in every detail.

This book features new unpublished photography that captures a world motivated by curiosity, a profound respect for architecture, and an inimitable manner of enhancing extraordinary works of art through daring choices of textiles or furniture. Zervudachi seamlessly places each project into its appropriate context, from a reimagined family château in France to a chic beach house in the Bahamas, or from a historic mansion in Austria to a mysterious chalet in the Alps. Texts and interviews by Natasha Fraser emphasize Zervudachi’s precision and responsibility to his craft in thirty-six stunning locations.

How Living Spaces Reduced to the Max Can Maximize the Quality of Life

The desire for as much space as possible on as little room as necessary is neither automatically connected to an alternative lifestyle nor is it a protest against our luxury-oriented society. Sometimes it simply makes life easier, more comfortable, and more economical. The “Tiny House Movement” lifestyle trend, which began in the United States, has spread throughout the entire world, intensified by the construction and financial crisis.

This title presents contemporary projects from around the world that take on the simple yet challenging task to develop enthralling room concepts and spatial solutions for the efficient use of the smallest living spaces. The furnishings need to be carefully designed and compact to make the most of the available space, such as a bench that can be converted into a bed. These mini interiors investigate the possibility of providing a better setting for everyday living based on what is necessary, what is desired, and what is possible.

Fascinating interior design solutions for the smallest living spaces.

With well-thought-out planning, cleverly organized floor plans, as well as intelligent and compact furniture concepts, a great amount of space can be created in very small apartments and houses. The limited floor area promotes a focus on the essentials, which can make life at home easier, more comfortable, and, of course, more economical. All selected projects investigate the possibilities of optimizing limited settings based on what is necessary, what is desired, and what is possible.

Striking, innovative, and dramatically sited, the twenty-nine projects in Tom Kundig: Working Title reveal the hand of a master of contextually astute, richly detailed architecture.

Projects range from inviting homes that integrate nature to large-scale commercial and public buildings: wineries, high-performance mixed-use skyscrapers, a Visitor Center for Tillamook Creamery, the Burke Museum of Natural History and Culture, and the Wagner Education Center of the Center for Wooden Boats, among others. Tom Kundig: Working Title includes lush photography, sketches, and a dialogue between Tom Kundig and Michael Chaiken, curator of the Kundig-designed Bob Dylan Archive at the Helmerich Center for American Research.

Designer Tony Duquette’s legendary Dawnridge, located in Beverly Hills, is one of the most creatively designed private homes in America. Built in 1949 by Duquette and his wife, Elizabeth, the original structure was a modest 30 x 30 foot box. Hutton Wilkinson purchased the home following Duquette’s death in 1999, and he has since breathed new life into the estate, broadening the property, adding houses of his own design, and incorporating remarkable objects designed and created by the Duquettes. Written by Wilkinson, Tony Duquette’s Dawnridge chronicles the luxe and historic home’s transformation. The book is organized by the three main houses, and Wilkinson elaborates on the spectacular design elements in each room and shares the stories behind the spaces. Tim Street-Porter’s photographs show both the original and redesigned rooms.

Explore the second design book from acclaimed Spanish designer Isabel López-Quesada across stunning locales around the world

Described as the most significant European woman designer working today, Isabel López-Quesada returns with a second volume demonstrating her interior design expertise. Showcasing a wider variety of her design projects, this superb, extended monograph is divided into two sections, Town and Country, displaying spectacular residences located on three islands across the Mediterranean Sea, the Caribbean, and more. Innovatively combining period and contemporary furniture and art in a sophisticated, seemingly effortless mix, the interiors of Isabel López-Quesada are inspirational and unforgettable.

Beautifully captured by renowned photographer Miguel Flores-Vianna, with whom López-Quesada worked on her first book, her eye-catching designs and the skill with which she carefully places decorative objects among stunning furnishings are celebrated here.

Her passion for interior design was precocious and self-taught, a vocation whose strength continues undiminished forty years later. While maintaining her base in Madrid, over this time, she has executed projects worldwide, showcasing her ability to comprehend and enhance spaces of all kinds, imparting them with a unique character. Talent, professionalism, instinct, and years of experience distinguish her work, internationally recognized for its versatility and personal charisma. Beyond Spain, her projects extend across the globe to places such as the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Switzerland, Japan, and the Dominican Republic.

Henry Bourne’s photographs of the residences and workspaces of a who’s who of creative people open windows onto the groundbreaking design approaches and trends of the last three decades.

For nearly thirty years, Bourne has been photographing the residences and studios of, or those designed by, some of the world’s most important artists, architects, designers, and innovators. Culture and society are constantly evolving, and changes, both aesthetic and sociological, are reflected in our physical surroundings. Spaces and portraits in this volume range from the Upstate New York studio of artist Richard Prince, Vincent Van Duysen’s early apartment in Antwerp, and Marc Newson’s residences (his modern former bachelor pad as well as the more textured apartment he shares with Charlotte Stockdale today) to the joyfully chaotic London atelier of artist Paula Rego, the Villa Volpi by architect Tomaso Buzzi near Rome, the London studio of artists Tim Noble and Sue Webster— before and after its sleek renovation, designed by architect David Adjaye.

Creative director Peter Saville’s sleek London apartment captures the essence of the 1990s, while the homes of both architect Zaha Hadid and minimalist master John Pawson are self-portraits in design. This book is a collection of mainly personal spaces and portraits of luminaries at the turn of the twenty-first century, depicting the contradictory yet stimulating language of contemporary design: stylish and functional, maximalist and minimalist, opulent and understated.

This book features some of the world’s most stunning examples of urban living spaces, realised by interior designers and architects from all over the world

Nineteen new city houses and apartments by interior designers and architects from all over the world take urban living to a whole new level.

Upcycling sums up today’s approach to interiors. It means re-using or re-styling things in an innovative and contemporary way, transforming an older piece of furniture from junk to fabulous. The same idea can even be applied to mass-market modern furniture — through "hacking," you can give it a brand new use or an entirely different look.

Both upcycling and hacking are about re-purposing, taking an inexpensive item and re-working it into something special and unique. It’s not just about making the most of your budget, although upcycling and hacks will save you money. It’s about having a home that reflects your style and individuality.

Sometimes it’s just a question of looking at "that old thing" in a different way, such as hanging an empty picture frame on the wall, using a piece of outdoor furniture inside, adding different doors to chain-store fittings, or combining traditional and modern in quirky, individualistic ways.

Through two hundred newly commissioned photographs and engaging profiles of twelve unique, personal, and creative interiors on both sides of the Hudson, Upstate features a variety of spaces–from tranquil minimalist retreats to exuberant small-town residences. Among them are a farmhouse of globetrotting food photographers, a lavender-hued Victorian brimming with eclectic curios, a striking cottage with modern furnishings and elegant Georgian bones, and the country-house-on-acid of an artist and art director, complete with giant mushroom side tables and permanently installed party streamers. Shared by these distinctive spaces is a common approach to decoration that centers on collections gradually accumulated, delights in the handmade, embraces the beauty in imperfection, and values comfort and character above all.

This carefully curated book presents fourteen private mansions and exceptional apartments, showing the great diversity of their functional and design possibilities. These lofts, maisons de maître, industrial-style spaces, and Haussmann-style apartments are often surprising, and always interesting. 

Magnificent residences that take urban living to a whole new level. A unique book on the best in new residential design from all over the world: Amsterdam, Antwerp, Chicago, New York, Paris, Stockholm, The Hague, and Toronto.

The first book from AD100 designer Veere Grenney — the master of streamlined, glamorous, classical rooms with an English touch — eloquently explores not only the hows but also the whys of decorating.

Featuring thirty years of acclaimed interiors, paired with thoughtful advice and packaged with a real cloth case and mixed paper stocks, A Point of View is a rich album of Grenney’s decorating work, from London townhouses to Long Island estates, with multiple images per page. Organized by room, these chapters feature Grenney’s room-by-room decorating philosophy for entrances, living rooms, dining rooms, bedrooms, and kitchens, and explore thematic topics such as Englishness and composition and balance. Grenney also shares his own story, from his early years on the ’70s London design scene to starting his own firm, from his first flat in London to his renovation of David Hicks’ former house, the Temple, to his new holiday house in Tangier. There is also a chapter on the iconic designers who have inspired him. Whether it’s a country house or an urbane apartment, Grenney’s world is one of settled calm and welcoming comfort, where there are always generous fireplaces to sit in front of, billiard rooms and stone-flagged passages, and utility rooms where boots and coats are stored; grandeur and modesty side by side. This book is a must for Anglophiles and design lovers.

About the Authors:

Veere Grenney trained under Mary Fox Linton and David Hicks, and later was a director at Colefax and Fowler before launching his own company in London 22 years ago. Widely published, Grenney’s awards include House and Garden’s “The Directory of 100 Leading Interior Designers,” Veranda magazine’s 2013 Magic Makers, and the AD 100.
