This text presents examples of residential lofts in London, New York, Paris, Chicago, Berlin, Los Angeles and Milan. Whether in former warehouses, converted schoolhouses, suites of offices, or one-time woodworking shops, the lofts all represent contemporary design and living. Confronted by the challenge of dealing with hundreds or often thousands of feet of raw space, loft dwellers have responded by devising some interesting design solutions. Here are lofts with open, free-flowing spaces, loft divided into rooms or arranged on different levels, artist's lofts, and lofts that function as home offices.
Beginning with French Style. Suzanne Slesin and her coauthors created an acclaimed series of high-quality color books that focused on international areas of cultural and domestic interest. The Little Style Books revisit this classic material in a new and reinvigorated format. Snappy anti appealing. The Little Style Books contain pictures anti text from the original edition selected and reorganized to highlight what is quintessential about the style of the country. The chapter on Living, for example, is filled with ideas for arranging rooms, placing furniture, lighting corners: the Cooking chapter shows not only how other people live, but how our kitchens might be adapted. A treasure trove of ideas, this is indeed the essence of style.
Ancient and modern, rustic and elegant, minimal yet rich in detail, Greek style is remarkable for its contrasts and eclectic mix of influences. This book captures not only the authentic character of Greek interior design, but also the liveliness of Greek culture. In a country where one is never far from the sea, the intense azure of water and the brilliance of sunlight are the primary elements of style. To these essentials are added dazzling white and delicate pastel-shaded walls, cool floors of stone or mosaic, colourful fabrics and charming examples of folk art. Here we discover the dramatic geographical range of Greece, from the mountainous northern mainland to the Cyclades and Dodecanese islands, with their white-washed fishing villages clinging to rocky hills. Here too are centuries-old estates, the turquoise and pink studio of a local artist, and the cliff-top and beach-front dwellings of newcomers. From the modest one-room village house to the rock-carved hideaway and luxurious villa perched over the sea, all celebrate the unforgettable and enduring stylistic tradition of Greece.
