BRADBURY, DOMINIC
Interiors created by artists and designers, fashion personalities and artisans, architects and set-designers the private spaces where many experimented and lived with their inspiration have a special significance.
Featuring one hundred of the worlds most important and influential spaces, by some of the great talents of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, The Iconic Interior tells the often intimate stories of these remarkable domestic designs, their creators and their clients.
Every conceivable style is represented, including some that defy categorization. The book includes everyone from Alvar Aalto to Coco Chanel, Henry Moore to Piero Fornasetti, Marcel Wanders to Axel Vervoordt, Marc Newson and Karim Rashid.
Interiors range from integrated spaces of architecture and built-in furniture to spirited essays in texture and fabric, breathtaking decorative follies, mind-blowing craftsmanship and elegant compositions of precision and restraint.
Concise, informative texts and vibrant illustrations, including specially commissioned photographs, offer detailed documentation, while a bibliography and gazetteer provide further information.
