Publisher Comments:

If there is one book that will look elegant on every coffee table this season, this is it. Compiled by the editors of Elle Decor, the definitive voice of good taste, this rich collection of interiors — from eclectic and eccentric to classic chic — can inspire every reader looking for a little "je ne sais quoi" for their home.

"Elle Decor" explores the work, influences, and principles of great French contemporary designers including Starck, Gomez, and Yves Saint Laurent. Beginning with an insider's look at the personal styles of the designers, the book is comprised of eight distinctive chapters — Provence, Chalet, Country, French Style Abroad, Colonial, Atlantic, Eclectic, and Eccentric — to give the widest range of decorative styles possible.
