This book celebrates inventive and inspired homes that are at once
original and the product of visionary designers at the height of their
powers.
Making House features the houses and apartments of leading interior,
furniture, and product designers--homes by designers, as designed for
themselves--including the abodes of well-known figures such as Jonathan
Adler, Marc Newson, Britt Moran and Emiliano Salci of Dimore Studio, and
Stephen Sills.
A great degree of inspiration is to be found among the personal homes
and interiors of the masters. Designers, architects, and artists are
free to experiment in a way that is unique, without any of the
traditional limitations of a client-commissioned project. These are
laboratories of invention. They are also private retreats, which offer a
range of design solutions for common challenges from which the reader
may glean new ideas and the motivation to make such ideas real.
Beautifully illustrated, this volume is at once a document and a
celebration of some of the most inspiring homes from around the world
and the creative minds and personalities behind them, photographed
specifically for this book.
