With an inspirational richness and diversity of styles, these homes,
residences, hideaways, and studios will astound and astonish, no matter
the taste; be it rustic country cottage, New York-style loft, or
bohemian bungalow. This survey of contemporary interior design carefully
curates homes from all over the world--from Auckland, New Zealand, to
Avignon, France.
Mapped out through hundreds of images by renowned interior
photographers, these gorgeous houses offer inspiration and ideas for
your next renovation. Many of the selected homes are owned by
creatives--designers, filmmakers, and collectors--whose eye for the
perfect synthesis of interior elements is impressive, to say the least.
Bringing together wallpaper, furniture, textiles, and objet d'art while
cautiously balancing color, texture, and form, the creators of these
dynamic spaces practice an art form of their own.
Eclectic or minimal, antique or extra-modern, this variety of decor
locates contemporary style in all its manifestations, showcasing the
endless possibilities and home-making magic of interior design.
