For many people, country life means a peaceful existence that is quieter, cleaner, and closer to the natural world than city living. "Comfortable Country" is an invigorating celebration of all that is special about this way of life. It is also a source of great decorating ideas that will work wherever you live. Colours are soft and natural, and furnishings are a beguiling combination of new finds and family treasures--the contemporary and antique effortlessly blended. This is a look that is not afraid to display an eclectic mix of objects, whether a collection of spongeware pottery on a zinc-topped hutch or a set of med-century-modern chairs around a scrubbed pine table. Above all, Enrica STabile advocates the joy of keeping things simple while at the same time ensuring that spaces are practical and very comfortable. The book starts by looking at the influences on the comfortable country look, from the Changing Seasons to Nostalgia. Comfortable Country Rooms, the second part, shows how the style works in every room in the home, and even outdoors.*An individual style that is a beguiling mix of the old and the new, the nostalgic and the utilitarian, the pretty and the function.*Celebrates a relaxed look that is easy and affordable to create and will work wherever you live.*Atmospheric original photography by Christopher Drake.

France is the world’s style destination, and photographer Sébastien Siraudeau has scoured the hexagon to uncover eighty of its most charming boutique guesthouses, each rich in the design details that epitomize French style. Thirty of these locations are featured in individual chapters with photographs highlighting their particular flair–from a trompe-l’oeil wall mural, to a damask upholstered chaise lounge, or a simple row of ocean-polished stones. Those seeking inspiration for their own home interiors will find this book rich in ideas for a wide variety of styles—elegant crystal chandeliers may take center stage in one room, but a simple wooden bench, worn smooth with centuries of use, can be just as captivating in another. Gently faded neutrals create a quiet harmony in one setting, while another is alive with splashes of vivid color. Sleek and modern or cozy and rustic, each of these hand-picked settings is as inviting as a deep leather armchair. Organized thematically, these destinations will inspire the reader to recreate the same atmospheric interiors at home. This handsome volume includes a black book of the best design destinations the country has to offer—from châteaux, country manors, and farmhouses, to urban apartments, hotels, and B&Bs. A practical guide grouped by region includes price indicators and online tourist information.

Country living evokes bucolic landscapes and picturesque villages rolling Connecticut countryside, verdant farmland, the sun-drenched hills of Malibu and the architecture that echoes these idyllic settings. These houses, ranging from family estates to weekend retreats, are the personal homes of decorators and tastemakers, including Jonathan Adler, Martyn Lawrence-Bullard, and Steven Gambrel. The properties exemplify varied design perspectives and provide fresh ideas about how country living is ideal for creative expression. This inspiring medley ranges from Tony Duquette s exotic pavilion-style California home to a charming New York Victorian, a modernist Palm Springs desert getaway by Neutra, a nineteenth-century Gothic cottage on Shelter Island, and an eighteenth-century Connecticut house. Along with design ideas for interiors, the book also covers the garden and pool areas. Since outdoor entertaining is an integral part of country living, a section devoted to tabletop display is included. These beautifully photographed inspirations encourage the reader to explore the design opportunities in the country guided by the best interior designers.
