Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

An enthusiastic and highly personal romp through the number of different room types drawn from a variety of interiors, old and new... The autobiographical element sets it apart from many other 'design source (books of this type.')

COUNTRY LIFE ('An elegant book to inspire those whose taste for rich decoration demands more than fiscal input.')

HOMES AND GARDENS ('[The] photographs inspire, the text delivers common-sense advice, DESIGN AND DETAIL IN THE HOME is full of charm, with its first-person, often anecdotal approach.')

HOUSE AND GARDEN ('The book is full of interesting anecdotes and good-humoured advice for anyone who aspires to improve their own home.')

Reseña del editor:

David Linley has achieved international renown as a designer of furniture and accessories that reinterpret and transform traditional styles in a modern way. In his new book his unique, personal and highly successful approach is explained and expanded to encompass interior design generally and show how a wide range of traditional influences can be blended to create new, visually exciting yet harmonious interiors. The book looks at the historical context of various living spaces and traces a journey through the home. Each chapter investigates the way in which these spaces may be adapted to create a variety of visual effects suited to their environment, their owners' taste and the practicalities of modern living. The informative, thought-provoking and entertaining text reflects Linley's personal taste for the unusual as well as traditional approaches to design; the stunning illustrations reflect this appreciation of widely differing styles - including classical architecture, antique furniture, tribal and Oriental artefacts and modern design.
