What does a contemporary Art Deco interior look like to you? Is it glittering and cabaret-like,
featuring marabou trims, sequin scales and striking chevron stripes? Or is it elegance personified
in the manner of a Marlene Dietrich trouser suit – soft and well-tailored, but accessorised
dramatique?
Through jewel-like furnishings that light up the room, ornate mirrors as beautiful as brooches,
simple Japanese-style lighting, and bold, curvaceous furniture shapes, join design journalist Claire
Bingham as she tours the most sumptuous, modern day Deco interiors – at home, on holiday, in
restaurants and bars. Spanning ritzy venues to sublimely-styled houses, Living in
Style The New Art Deco is all about 21st century Deco-inspired interiors – vivid, glamorous,
polished and self-assured.
With chapters focusing on all facets of the Art Deco look,
including designers, design details, paint palettes, and Art Deco accessories, this gorgeous
interiors book opens the door to exclusive, charismatic, contemporary Deco spaces and offers
abundant Art Deco design ideas and inspiration for beginners and experts alike. Vintage
photographs contextualise the featured interiors, showcasing the icons of Art Deco that have
immortalised the era and style. From 1920s and 1930s trendsetters swathed in silks and furs to
swanky Dimore Studio-designed salons, this book celebrates the enduring appeal of a halcyon
design age as modern and desirable as it is elaborate
and luxurious.
