Designers at Home
Designers at Home is the first book to take the camera inside the homes of some of the most influential interior designers in the world to see how they live. Around twenty of the best-known names in European interior design, such as Kelly Hoppen, John Minshaw, Frederic Mechiche and Andree Putman open their doors as we reveal the stylish secrets of their homes and how they reflect the way they think about and approach interior space and light. Divided into three major sections, Designers at Home explores the major trends of today. It begins with New Classic, continues with Fusion and finishes with Modern, plus a list of designer contacts and a directory of key fabric, wallpaper and furnishings suppliers. Specially commissioned photography by exceptional interiors photographer Mark Luscombe Whyte reveals each personal space in a fresh and inspirational way. Designers at Home is an invaluable sourcebook for those searching for innovative ideas, a survey of the spectrum of style that exists in contemporary interior design completed by a directory of the key designers practising and sought after today.
Conversions
Addresses the growing trend in converting existing structures into a series of ingenious living spaces as it looks at varied projects from around the world in rural, urban, and civic buildings, as well as lofts, industrial spaces, and other unique buildings, examining such topics as what elements of the structure are left intact, what are demolished, how each building was converted into a dwelling, budgets, materials, and impact on the surrounding environment.
How to Live in Small Spaces
Terence Conran demonstrates that a little really is enough and that basic design principles can maximize the smallest living space to result in stylish and functional homes. The book is presented in three sections. Part one, Making the Most of Small Spaces, discusses how design and spatial planning are the key to maximizing space as every square metre counts. Decoration and Furnishing discusses how to adopt various strategies to make your space look and feel larger, from creative use of colours and textures to lighting and furniture. The ultimate way to enhance a small space is to physically make it bigger; Branching Out discusses the ways in which this can be done, from conversions to extensions. In part Two, Area by Area Solutions presents a room by room breakdown, demonstrating space-saving ideas, storage solutions and strategies for compact layouts specific to each room. From kitchens, bedrooms and bathrooms to small gardens and second homes, each chapter is full of intelligent, functional and sometimes quirky ways in which to make the most of living space. Finally, international case studies that demonstrate how good design principles have been applied in real terms.
Plain Simple Useful
'A handsome yet joyful manual for easy, stylish living.' - Architectural Digest Terence Conran always believed that objects - and surroundings - that are plain, simple and useful are the key to easy living. By being practical and performing well over time, they are as much the antidote to superficial styling as they are to the shoddy and second-rate. Applied to the home as a whole, this discerning approach results in interiors that are effortlessly stylish, confident and timeless, with plenty of room for the expression of personal taste. Plain Simple Useful is organized according to the main activities that take place at home. Inspirational interiors, many of which were Conran's own, provide all the guidance you need to tailor-make your own storage. The book also features iconic examples of classic designs that will enhance any home, as well as a peek behind the closed doors of those well-ordered cupboards, larders and other stowing spaces that contribute so much to easy living. This updated edition of the book features a new chapter on plain, simple, useful style outdoors with elegant contemporary ideas for eating and relaxing spaces outside.
