Creative living
With each volume, a brand new set of interiors that define
how the style-savvy eat, sleep and entertain today
An interior is the perfect synthesis of personality and zeitgeist; it is a living work of
art, a cultural artifact, and the object of ceaseless curiosity. Highly sensitive to this
phenomenon, our Interiors Now series tracks the constantly evolving and multifaceted
fabric of contemporary interior design around the world. Each new volume—
destined for casual readers and professionals alike—brings together a fresh and
inspiring collection of homes that demonstrates variations on the theme of how to
bring out the best in the space that matters most: your home.
Whether it is photographers Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin’s New York
loft with its Eames 2.0 walnut expanses and cosy corners, Jacques Grange’s relaxed
romance for Francis Ford Coppola’s splendid palazzo in Southern Italy, or art dealer
Michael Fuchs’ apartment in a 1930s former Jewish Girls’ School in Berlin—all the
interiors have been chosen as expressions of personal visions that together give the
full picture of what really matters in home decoration right now.
• 36 new residences around the world, each telling a story about the place and
the people who live there
• A round-up of the new elite in global interior design who share their secrets on
what really matters when doing a kitchen or lighting a dining space, how to
hang an art collection for best effect, or how to childproof in style
• Includes an illustrated list of contributing photographers as well as profile and
contact details for all featured designers
