Книги з дизайну інтер'єрів

In this timeless and beautiful book, renowned architectural and interior designer, writer, shop-keeper and blogger Ben Pentreath presents a fresh and insightful overview of the classic English style.

Visiting 12 very different homes, Ben explores and appraises the unique spirit of the English House – at once restrained and simple yet overflowing with a generosity of touch and a richness of color and texture.

The book is divided into three sections: London, Country, and Country House, and the interiors featured range from a 1930s pied-a-terre in London's historic St James to designer Veere Grenney's pocket-sized Palladian Temple folly in Suffolk and Wardington, a 16th-century stone manor house in North Oxfordshire. Ben’s own homes, in central London and West Dorset, are also included.

These homes vary greatly in architecture, size, shape and age, but they all have in common a peculiarly English style – richly-layered rooms that deftly intertwine colour and pattern and a mix of old and new furniture to create timeless and comfortable places to live.

About the Author

Ben Pentreath is one of London’s leading architectural and interior designers. He graduated from the University of Edinburgh, where he read History of Art & Architecture. Ben then worked with architectural designer Charles Morris and trained at the Prince’s Foundation for the Built Environment, before working for Fairfax & Sammons Architects in New York. Ben’s blog was named one of the 20 best design blogs in the world by the Sunday Telegraph and currently receives around 25,000 hits a month. He is also a regular columnist for the Financial Times. Ben’s architectural practice has worked on projects from housing developments for HRH The Prince of Wales to private houses in the UK, Ireland and the United States.

Like English literature and English manners, the English style of decorating has been copied and admired for generations around the world. It may be found in an elegant town house with Art Deco features, a Victorian terrace house with original William Morris wallpaper or a graphically severe attic studio.

Suzanne Slesin and Stafford Cliff provide a singularly beautiful and evocative look at the English ways of decorating. Presenting more than 600 colour photographs, English Style examines a myriad of styles with chapters on classic English homes; city houses; flats and studios; conversions; country houses; collecting and English style abroad.

In Essential Bathrooms, Terence Conran presents a wide range of options for siting, designing and decorating the bathroom in the modern home. From planning and layout to fixtures, fittings, decor and details, practical information and inspiring visual examples demonstrate that whatever your requirements, any bathroom can be transformed into a stylish place of retreat and a relaxing sanctuary.

For Jose Solís and Paul Sherrill, partners in Solís Betancourt, the goal for every interior is a balance between formal and informal, traditional and contemporary, while always keeping comfort and livability in mind. There is a striking simplicity to their arrangement of furniture and art: the look is subtle, never excessive, yet the designers are not afraid to bring in dramatic elements to surprise and enchant the eye. These choices contribute to a look that appears effortless, as though the collection of objects came together little by little over decades.

Most notably in a Solís Betancourt room, comfort centers on the sensuous fabrics that might envelop an armchair, cushion a delicate settee, or softly frame a set of French doors. Fabric might be used as an accent, lining niches or bookcases as a background for the objects on display. Or fabric might take on a more important role, covering the ceiling and walls to create a tactile and alluring environment. Nubby linens, shimmering silks, regal damasks, are subtly layered into a serene composition that begs to be touched and enjoyed.

These are interiors that offer a moment of transcendence, a glimpse beyond everyday routine. These are rooms to come home to, sanctuaries that offer a sense of protection, tranquility, and beauty.

Whether you are starting from scratch or simply updating an existing layout, Terence Conran provides the inspiration and information you need to make the kitchen the heart of the home. From planning and layout to fixtures, fittings, decor and details, practical information and inspiring visual examples demonstrate that kitchens can be both stylish and functional.

Whether you prefer cosy clutter or a clean minimalist look, Terence Conran provides practical information and creative inspiration to help you organize every area of your home. From planning and assessment to an area by area breakdown of particular storage requirements, inspiring visual examples demonstrate that good storage and organization can improve efficiency in the home as well as your quality of life.

Essentially French is perfect for anyone who seeks ideas for their own French-inspired interior, or for those who simply want to dream...

In Essentially French, renowned antiques dealer and stylist Josephine Ryan offers a privileged glimpse into the homes of antiques dealers who have a passion for French style. Step into a world of timeless elegance and transform your home with this beautiful guide to French-style interiors.

The homes featured include farmhouses, townhouses and apartments, and their decorative styles may differ, but all have something in common – each and every one showcases the beauty of traditional French furniture and accessories, and demonstrates the understated elegance of French life.

From the chic simplicity of a Parisian apartment to the picturesque charm of a Provençal farmhouse, the homes in this book illustrate many facets of classic French style.

Far-flung cultures have always been a source of inspiration for the exploration-minded Old Continent. Charmed by the exoticism of those distant styles, furniture designs and objets d"art, this decorative trend still exists today. Africa, Indonesia, Morocco, China, India and South America are lands that inspire the projects included in this book. Raffia rugs, natural fibre ornaments, leathers, hand-sewn baskets, Totem figures... just some of the objects that give personality to these projects.

We consider whether a “European Style” can be defined on the basis of twenty projects from the same number of countries in Europe.
This exceptionally varied book (in two volumes) shows private residences from Denmark to Portugal, from Germany to Spain, and in the United Kingdom, Switzerland, Belgium and France.

The days of simply wanting to ‘get the look’ are over: nowadays, we are more interested in achieving a smooth-running and contented home life, and it’s not purely the aesthetics of our interiors that we’re pondering. Key to this more considered approach to homemaking is the storage of all life’s paraphernalia, from everyday essentials (kitchen equipment, bicycles) to seasonal items (skis and suitcases) and, of course, all those bits and pieces you don’t need very often but still want to hang on to (wedding photographs, grandma's china). We have more stuff than ever before, so where (and how) should we keep it all?

In 'Everything in its Place', Rebecca Winward demonstrates how our experience of every room in the house can be improved through a canny choice of storage solutions that balance form and function. She also addresses the fact that, while storage is inherently practical, it also holds huge potential for decorative impact. Examining the subject from every possible angle, Rebecca considers what to store where and what best to store it in before going on to discuss the storage demands of different items (clothes, books, crafting equipment) and even storage by style, from minimalist to vintage to rustic, to name but a few.
