Timeless Elegance: The Houses of David Easton	Abrams
Автор: Easton David Издательство: Abrams, 2010	PDF, 240 страниц, 7.20 МБ 8 Оценка:
Timeless Elegance is a rare insight into the work of one of America's pre-eminent designers, David Easton, a master of both interior design and architecture. The versatility of his talent is displayed with examples of his work that range from a forty-five-room Georgian style house in Charlottesville, Virginia, to a Mediterranean stucco house in Mexico to a modern house in Aspen, Colorado. For Easton, all aspects of a house are simultaneously executed — the windows and curtain treatments are designed in tandem. Because Easton is the architect, interior decorator, furniture maker, and landscape designer, he can talk the reader through the importance of the seamless integration of the house, the decor, and the garden to create a sense of order and calm. This book charts the evolution of various projects, giving each property its own chapter. Black and white penciled drawings alongside museum quality watercolours by Easton's partner, Jimmy Steinmeyer, and stunning photographs of the finished interiors will be featured throughout. The text will be written by Annette Tappert, author of The Power of Style and former contributing editor to Architectural Digest. Design is by Doug Turshen, the designer of Bunny Williams' An Affair with a House and Point of View and Alessandra Branca's New Classic Interiors.

Summer House captures the feeling that summer evokes with memories that last beyond the season itself.

A summer house, cottage, or cabin is not encumbered with the necessities of year-round living. It is instead able to flourish with the sparsity of limited furnishings, kitchenware and electronics, and thus able to accommodate beautiful and thoughtful family treasures. Woods speaks to the reader with an honest approach and has simple design ideas that will transform a home. Accompanied by luscious photographs of summer house interiors and gardens, this book is sure to delight and inspire. As Woods says: Summer homes lend themselves to the creation of quiet, comfortable spaces where time stands still. Readers who have enjoyed New Farmhouse Style and Woods's down-to-earth attitude will find renewed inspiration in Summer House.

Desert Air	Abrams
Автор: Steinmetz George Издательство: Abrams, 2012	DjVu, 352 страницы, 14.08 МБ 5 Оценка:
Celebrated exploration photographer George Steinmetz takes his art to a new level in Desert Air, the first comprehensive photographic collection of the world's extreme deserts, which receive less than four inches of precipitation per year. Steinmetz has spent 15 years on this epic body of work, capturing remarkable and surreally beautiful visions of deserts, from China's great Gobi Desert to the Sahara in northern Africa to Death Valley in California. Much more than a visual journey, these images are enriched by the exciting stories behind Steinmetz's adventures in some of the world's most difficult and challenging areas — from smuggling his paraglider into Libya to getting arrested for spying in Iran, to crashing into a tree in western China. Desert Air reveals extraordinary desert ecosystems that together form a kind of disparate family of coevolved landscapes; similar, yet each unique in its own way.

W: The First Forty Years	Abrams
Автор: Bagley Christopher Издательство: Abrams, 2012	DjVu, 304 страницы, 12.16 МБ 0 Оценка:
W Magazine (W stands for World of Style) will celebrate its 40th anniversary in 2012 with a book featuring the most fabulous high points over the last 40 years. W is an award winning publication, one of the world's greatest and best known fashion magazines. It was founded in 1971 as a sister publication to Women's Wear Daily and was owned by Fairchild Publications until it was purchased by Conde Nast in 1999. Its long time creative director Dennis Freedman and editorial director Patrick McCarthy left the magazine in 2010 and were replaced by Stefano Tonchi, who is now its editor in chief. Often the subject of controversy, W magazine is renowned for its provocative, influential and often groundbreaking fashion features by such photographers as Steven Klein, Mert Alas & Marcus Piggott, Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin, Steven Meisel, Tim Walker, Craig McDean and Juergen Teller. W is the only fashion magazine that will dare to devote an entire magazine to one feature narrative by one photographer (such as Angelina Jolie & Brad Pitt or Madonna, both by Steven Klein). W covers not only fashion & beauty, but everything style, design, celebrity and artistic related in not only American and European culture and society, but throughout the world. The book will be divided into three sections; Who, Where, and Wow, with a foreword by Stefano Tonchi and introductory essays to each of the three sections, one of which will be written by magazine contributor Lynn Hirschberg.
