Condition: Sehr gut. 219 S., sehr zahlr. Abb. Sehr gutes Ex. - This volume presents a selection of interiors from Italy, Europe and the world. Each a distinctive environment in its own right, together they provide an overview of contemporary lifestyle trends. Examples include classic villas, country homes, lofts, small city apartments, houses on the Mediterranean coast, former industrial premises converted to modern homes, senior-management offices, 5-star hotels, boats and even an embassy - the Italian Embassy in Brasilia. Domestic or work environments covering a gamut of styles, they have been designed by architects or simply by their inhabitants, with the help of furnishing stores. What at first glance may appear a stylistic hotchpotch does, however, have a clear, if unusual, narrative thread. As the Austrian philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein remarked when he designed his sister's house in Vienna in 1926, when we build a house we are "talking and writing". The interiors in this volume narrate the tastes, attitudes and habits of the people who live in them. Their clear, rational language speaks of living, breathing spaces inhabited on a daily basis by ordinary people who have chosen the furnishings they want to live with. The environments also reflect another story: the story of a Company and its collection. How Edra's settees, armchairs, tables, chairs and systems can be adapted to vastly differing surrounds and blended with other furniture and fittings. Sometimes, it is true, this has proved an impossible feat. But often - as these examples show - they are marriages made in heaven. With this book, we have deliberately chosen not to show artificial settings created to illustrate lifestyle trends but real life situations. There is no better way to show off the versatility of Edra's furnishing systems. What you see are not purpose-built stage sets but living environments destined to last a lifetime. Selected from a vast array of interior decors created with Edra products, each setting speaks of design. Although assertive, Edra design is ready to integrate. Never out of place, it is at ease in the most disparate situations, lending a touch of originality to anonymous environments, yet fitting comfortably into more distinctive decor. Edra's settees, armchairs, table and chairs and modular systems seem to know instinctively how best to enhance each interior project. In these real-life settings, Edra's solutions come into their own for aesthetic and functional excellence, affording the utmost in comfort and style.
