Faux Chic: Creating the Look You Want for Less: Creating the Rich Look You Want for Less - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

Why create a single faux element - a painted table, wallpaper or window treatment - when you can design an entire room in faux decor? Without excessive budgets, this book aims to enable home decorators and artists to swathe their homes and workspaces in faux fashion. Addressing every element of faux design and decor, including walls and ceilings, furniture, floors, windows, collectibles and accessories, it shows how to transform ordinary living spaces into fabulous fake London flats, charming Tuscan farmhouses and more. Sidebars and photographs illustrate how to "fake it" from floor to ceiling, with projects including special Galic effects such as trompe l'oeil, glazing and marbling; striping techniques for walls and ceilings; antique furniture lookalikes transformed from flea-market finds; floors that recall the cobblestone streets of New England; and collectibles and accents such as art prints, fireplaces, trellises and Brittany lace window treatments.
