AMERICAN DESIGNERS AT HOME - IMPORTADO

There is a fresh spirit of invention in American design. The US culture has long benefited from influences filtering into the country from around the globe and the same is still true today, perhaps even more so. Within the sphere of interior design, the melting-pot culture has introduced themes and style from Mexico and South America, from South Africa and the Pacific, as well as ideas from Europe. The resulting interiors are unique: vibrant houses that have caught the attention of commentators from around the world. American Designers at Home explores the best of the country´s interior design through the lens of designers own houses. Divided into three broad sections representing the diversity of design styles, the twenty featured designers are explored through the themes of New Classic, Fusion and Modern. From the reinvented classicism of Juan Saladino and Sills-Hunniford to the theatricality of David Rockwell or Juan Pablo Molyneux this is a book which explores both stylistic diversity and original thinking. Included are designers who have come to work in the States from elsewhere, such as Kathryn Ireland and Benjamin Noriega-Ortiz; they are bringing fresh inspiration to the growing US design scene. A companion volume to the successful Designers at Home, this new book will offer inspiration to those seeking new interiors ideas, as well as information on the evolving American interior design scene.
