Fifth Avenue Style {Design Library}

 

When I received the advance copy of Howard Slatkin's Fifth Avenue Style I was so excited to unlock my treasure from the layers of wrapping it arrived in and I am just as excited to be sharing it with you now.  Howard has put together an amazing book chronicling his creation of his beautiful home.  Each room was created with painstaking attention to detail by an amazing group of craftsmen in Howard's vision.  I love the down to earth approach he takes in explaining his choices for this showpiece of a home and his drive and patience is simply inspiring!  A gorgeous book for the design enthusiast in all of us.

Beyond Chic {design library}

 

I love a good design book as we all know, but this one is so unique.  Beyond Chic is full of the amazing homes of Fashion's most creative minds!  I love the layering and collected feeling of the spaces.  It is always so interesting to see what inspires people so much that they fill their private spaces with it, don't you think? 

"Some of the most important people in fashion—Chanel, Alaïa, Yves Saint Laurent, Pucci, Kenzo, and Missoni—are known for their public image and their iconic designs. But what kind of world have they cultivated behind closed doors? From France to Italy, from England to Morocco, come along on a private visit to the remarkable homes of couturiers, stylists, muses, and fashion personalities. Photographer Ivan Terestchenko shows the décor, works of art, and the personal collections of these legendary designers. Some interiors, such as Chanel’s apartment at 31 rue Cambon, are mythic, while others like those of Giorgio Armani’s châlet or Vanessa Seward, Azzaro’s head designer, are completely unconventional. From minimal (Nicole Farhi) to exotic (Franca Sozanni), to a deceptively simple French apartment (Loulou de La Falaise), this book explores the spaces and places created by some of fashion’s biggest names."
