Inhaltsangabe

The first book to focus on the solo residential work of the visionary interior decorator Stephen Sills. Simultaneously classical and modern, Stephen Sills’s design work is a dialogue between past and present. Filled with luxurious fabrics, furnishings from across centuries, and unusual finishes, his work is polished, seemingly effortless, and quietly rich, with a muted color palette that serves as a brilliant foil for modern art. In this striking, meditative volume, the follow-up to his best-selling book Dwellings, Sills presents sixteen breathtaking homes, gorgeously photographed by the legendary François Halard, in locations as varied as a penthouse on Manhattan’s Fifth Avenue, a modern Aspen retreat, an estate on the North Shore of Long Island, and his own country house in Bedford, New York (dubbed the "chicest house in America" by Karl Lagerfeld). Common to them all is a sense of atmosphere, point of view, and soul—the sense of a master craftsman at work.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

Stephen Sills-named a "titan of design" by Elle Decor as well as a "dean of American design" by Architectural Digest-returns with a third spectacular book.
Stephen Sills is a true icon and recognized as a unique artistic voice in the design world. He is renowned for his ability not only to design innovative and beautiful rooms but also to establish a pervasive atmosphere of luxury and calm. This book is an in-depth look at several of Sills's most recent projects, stunning homes located in New York City; Naples, Florida; the Hamptons; and Connecticut, as well as Sills's own residences. Each story begins with mood boards that explain the inspiration for the house. The houses are bookended by essays on topics important to Sills, such as architecture, craft, landscape, and types of rooms, from primary to functional to connective spaces. The book also features a reflection on the evolution of Sills's style, including his passion for material innovation and advice for the reader on how to continuously educate the eye.
The tome is rich with creative collaborators: a foreword by one of Sills's longtime clients, Tina Turner; text by David Netto, himself an AD100 designer; and a conversation on gardens with Sills's longtime friend and neighbor, Martha Stewart. It will serve as an invaluable resource for all design lovers and students.
