Synopses & Reviews
The author-photographer team that brought us The New Eighteenth-Century Style and The New French Dand#233;cor has returned with 29 all-new homes, decorated in the modernized, eclectic version of Pompadour dand#233;cor that has become so popular in this young century. The resulting blend of ostentatious luxury and repurposed treasures, the natural and the manufactured, is a warm, lived-in style that perfectly embodies the comforts of home. Gilles Trillard's delightful photographs reveal interiors of breezy elegance, where Pop Art and industrial design mingle with patinaed highboys and carved candelabra; texts by Michand#232;le Lalande highlight the playful, surprising details that personalize these spaces. A perfect companion to the two previous volumes, The New Eighteenth-Century Home proves that the old has been made new once more--and it's here to stay.
