Description

Taking a room-by-room approach, the book looks at interiors from around the world which embody this appealing concept. The selection is gloriously wide, ranging from an exquisitely decorated drawing-room in southern France to a log-cabin bedroom in Aspen, Colorado, and a simple, all-white open-plan interior on St Lucia. Some of the rooms are grand in scale, some modest; some are flamboyant, concentrating on interesting finishes and mixing different styles of furniture and fabrics, while others are reticent in color and content. All of them, however, have originality and style. Informative text and captions highlight the essential elements of the look, making this book an invaluable source of ideas for every designer and decorator.
