C’est à une étude pratique des escaliers en bois que nous convie Ephrem Longépé, entrepreneur en charpente, compagnon du devoir et Meilleur Ouvrier de France. Il nous livre l’expérience de toute une vie à travers une centaine de cas concrets avec description, plan, commentaires et photos. Pour chaque escalier, l’auteur décrit en détail le mode de construction et résout les problèmes techniques propres à chaque type d’ouvrage, du plus simple au plus complexe.

Ce livre concerne surtout les cas pratiques auxquels se frotte l’artisan dans son travail quotidien : même si l’auteur est capable de tracer les courbes les plus compliquées avec virtuosité, il décrit ici les modèles les plus fréquemment fabriqués de nos jours, généralement plus simples, mariant fréquemment le bois avec d’autres matériaux. 

Après une courte étude de l’escalier et de ses différentes parties, les conditions de réalisation à l’atelier sont décrites en détail. Puis viennent les études de cas concrets, depuis la simple échelle de meunier jusqu’à l’escalier monumental, en passant par les escaliers à l’anglaise, à limon central ou menant à une mezzanine.
Ce livre veut être le compagnon indispensable de l’artisan qui réalise des escaliers, que ce soit de manière exceptionnelle ou régulière. Paru en 1984 et constamment demandé, il a dû être réédité ce qui a permis de rajouter quelques cas concrets supplémentaires parmi les plus récentes réalisations de l’auteur.

Conclusion

Fifty of the world’s most important buildings seen through specially commissioned isometric illustrations and detailed photographs and plans, providing the perfect introduction to architecture for students and anyone interested in buildings.

Taking readers behind architecture’s facades and finishes, this charmingly illustrated book explores how some of the most important buildings in the world were constructed. Specially commissioned isometric drawings present the essential structural elements of the world’s masterpiece buildings that are not visible to the naked eye. These illustrations are displayed alongside plans, details, and photographs, all of which are clear and accessible, yet accurate and elegant enough to satisfy the most discerning eye.

This fascinating book explores the thinking and expertise behind architects’ designs and offers a means by which to better understand buildings already visited as well as those on the must-see list. Selections range from domestic structures such as Frank Lloyd Wright’s Fallingwater and skyscrapers such as the Chrysler Building, to iconic classics such as the Louvre and Barcelona’s famed Sagrada Familia Cathedral. The buildings have been chosen for their importance and interest, their role in the development of architectural thinking, and the structural secrets that intricate 3-D drawings can reveal.

Отрывок.

Aria d’Italia is a Tod’s brand project that represents the Italy of the present and future through the faces and voices of young talents.

Aria d’Italia celebrates the contemporary Italian lifestyle and its values, highlighting talent and passion for quality in every aspect of life, from the culinary world to art, from social life to the loving care of traditions. The book demonstrates a harmony of action and thought that transcends nationality and can be embraced by all. As artist Costanza Chia, one of the people involved in this research, says, “There is poetry in doing things calmly and carefully: this is the warm Italian touch.”

Exploring eight keywords including Joy, Boldness, Passion, and Heritage, Aria d’Italia tells the personal and professional stories of young artists, entrepreneurs, and artisans who represent the heart of the Italian identity, motivated by an ongoing quest for beauty. These protagonists have been photographed by Guido Taroni in their homes and in the places that best represent their origins.

The title Aria d’Italia is inspired by the eponymous magazine published between 1939 and 1941 by collector Daria Guarnati, which brought together impressive collaborators such as Giò Ponti. With avant-garde taste, Guarnati enhanced Italy’s artistic heritage in all its expressions, from graphics to literature, art to design — and launched the concept of Italian style.

Vogue’s Book of Houses, Gardens, People (1968) was a landmark publication for decorating books, and it chronicles an important chapter in the history of Vogue.

Vogue's Horst P. Horst, a leading fashion photographer of his time, developed an intense interest in seeing the world’s great homes and meeting their owners; beginning in the early 1960s, he journeyed into an elite world that would soon be lost. With accompanying lyrical essays about homes and their occupants by the famed writer Valentine Lawford (Horst’s partner in work and life), the book is a virtual who’s who of society, politics, and the arts in the mid-20th century. Around That Time showcases much of the material featured in the original book, plus never-before-seen photographs from those homes as well as images from additional homes Horst shot well into the 1980s.

This book introduces this work to a new generation of design, decorating, and visual art professionals, academics and enthusiasts.

About the Authors

Horst P. Horst was a photographer known for his photographs of women, fashion, and interior architecture and for his environmental portraits. Valentine Lawford was a writer as well as the life partner of Horst P. Horst. Hamish Bowles is the international editor-at-large for Vogue.

By the time of the Paris exhibition of 1925 from which Art Deco took its name, the idea that an interior and its furnishings should form a complete design - a "total look" - dominated the thinking of both designers and their clients. Studios began to emerge to serve the needs of a design and style-conscious middle-class. This text displays the flourishing design ingenuity through contemporary photographs and illustrations of selected interiors complemented with modern photographs of individual pieces. It traces the sylistic evolution and dominant motifs of Deco, the triumph of the 1925 exhibition and the pure "high style" of the Paris ensembliers; the growth of Streamline Moderne offshoots in the US; the international revival of Deco as a decorative style for a new generation of post-modern designers; and the restoration of many Art Deco interiors to their original state.

This large format, full-color, inspirational book is about how artists use their collections to make artwork. The gallery-style format allows readers to see what artists collect, and the resulting spectacular artwork they make from it.

The artwork will include journals, assemblages, altered books, as well as jewelry pieces, and detailed descriptions of the materials and techniques used, plus tips and insights into using unusual materials and collections.

Mixed-media artists are naturally collectors. They are fascinated by the stuff of life, and they are always looking for the right elements to add to their collages and journals. This book offers a juicy combination -- sort of a walk through an artist-filled flea market, and a gallery of the pieces created using these collections with tips and insights on collecting and creating, and how they go hand in hand.

Andrew Fisher and Jeffry Weisman delight in the unexpected. They revel in beautiful contradictions to create interiors that blend the exotic and the traditional and refresh classic ideas with handmade, whimsical details. Both designers contribute an essential element to every project: Andrew Fisher injects opulence and glamour, hand-decorating chandeliers with shells, crafting side tables with delicate branchlike bases, and choosing ornate accent materials like tortoise, gold leaf, and peacock feathers; Jeffry Weisman contributes restrained architecture, calm visual pauses, and impeccable interior finishes.

As a firm, Fisher Weisman breathes new life into traditional aesthetics, reinterpreting timeless sensibilities with a lively and contemporary eye. Whether recovering Biedermeier chairs in zebra hide and slipper chairs with repurposed Indian saris found on their travels or finishing formal dining rooms in rich chocolate lacquer, Fisher Weisman subverts expectations to create truly extraordinary interiors. Artful Decoration showcases the exquisite work of this San Francisco–based design firm, revealing the imagination, meticulous attention to detail, and the sense of humor with which they infuse every home.

Beguiling touches finish off rooms designed with an enviable knowledge of form, proportion, color, and history to bring traditional spaces into the present and create livable, fresh interiors with an artisanal flair. Artful Decoration features thirteen residences ranging from small but lavish pieds-à-terre to airy Californian estates, from elegant penthouses to one especially elaborate tree house. Two hundred vivid, full-color illustrations reveal these and many other unexpected pleasures on every page to delight the eye and inspire the imagination.
