In one imaginative and beautifully presented volume, the genius of House Beautiful unfolds - in a class that teaches the eye to see and understand decor in an inspiring new way. Take a class with House Beautiful's teachers! All the design know-how anyone needs to decorate a new home or redo an old house is right in this one-stop, all encompassing, lushly photographed, and brilliantly conceived volume. Everything from wonderful home basics and working with space to the art of colour and perfect patterns to the absolute essentials for floors, windows, walls, and lighting is here. In addition to presenting fundamental decorating principles, this unequalled reference looks at different styles, such as Country, Modern, and Seaside; suggests ways of adding drama to a space or period grandeur; and leads you on an inspirational idea-filled walk through the house, analysing options for every room.
Learn from House Beautiful and top designers how to transform any room into an extraordinary space with great style. No matter what the colour palette, furniture, or accessories you choose, they won't make a finished room look fabulous unless they're put together with panache. Find inspiration in a portfolio of outstanding rooms from eleven style makers. These are the people who make and break trends; here, they share their secrets and explain how they turn ideas in to reality. Featuring the work of John Saldino, Victoria Hagan, and Mariette Himes Gomez in New York; Jacques Grange, Christian Liaigre, and Frederic Mechiche in Paris; Nancy Braithwaite in Atlanta and Barbara Barry In Los Angeles.
