Contemporary Chic

A home that's a relaxed and comfortable refuge from the world outside: that's what we increasingly want as the pressures of modern life accelerate. And that's what you'll create with this sumptuous guide as your personal designer, providing inspiration and advice on every page. Featuring gorgeous images by leading interiors photographer Hotze Eisma-whose work appears in numerous international magazines-it takes a simple approach that emphasizes real homes for real living. You'll explore the elements of four key styles-Natural, New Classical, Soft Design, and Color & Contrast-and see how they look in whole room schemes. Space, light, textures, and furnishings are all covered, as are issues such as planning and home security. The approach is fresh, uncontrived, and a harmonious blend of aesthetics and practicality.
