  • Waterstones Summers in France

    Price: £35.00

    Brand: Waterstones

     

    Description: In Summers in France, Caroline Clifton-Mogg celebrates classic French country interiors, with their sense of timeless comfort, simplicity and elegance. Think of summers in France and what comes to mind? Hot sunlight on a stone-flagged terrace. Bees buzzing amidst a sea of lavender. Wandering through a local market and filling a basket with bread, cheese and ripe peaches. Sipping wine as dusk falls, then eating by candlelight in the warm evening air. These aspects please all the senses | ??and so too does the distinctive decorative style of rural France. Against this backdrop, Caroline Clifton-Mogg visits 15 glorious homes that display the legendary French sense of style and evoke all the sensual appeal of summers spent in this beautiful part of the world. Throughout the book, she also explores the elements of the French country look, from the colour palette and materials typical of rural style, to cosy and chic soft furnishings and decorative accessories and antiques sourced at local markets and brocantes.

  • Waterstones The Artist's Garden

    Price: £30.00

    Brand: Waterstones

     

    Description: The Artist's Garden offers an intriguing study into 20 gardens that have inspired and been home to some of the greatest painters of history. The most alluring image of an artist at work is surely one where he or she has come out of their studio, set up their easel on the garden path, pulled on a hat to shade their eyes from the sun and taken their brush and palette in hand. This sumptuously illustrated and fascinating book delves into the stories behind the gardens which inspired some of the most beautiful and important works of art. These gardens not only supplied the inspiration for creative works but also illuminate the professional motivation and private life of the artists themselves - from Cezanne's house in the south of France to Childe Hassam at Celia Thaxter's garden off the coast off Maine. Flowers and gardens have often been the first choice for artists looking for a subject. A garden close to the artist's studio is not only convenient for daily material and ideas, but also has the advantage of changing through the seasons and over time. Claude Monet's Giverny was the catalyst for hundreds of great paintings (by Monet and other artists), each one different from the one before. Sometimes a whole village becomes the focus for a colony of artists as at Gerberoy in Picardy and Skagen on the northernmost tip of Denmark. This book is about the real homes and gardens that inspired these great artists - gardens that can still be visited today. The relationship between artist and garden is a complex one. A few artists, including Pierre Bonnard and his neighbour Monet were keen gardeners, as much in love with their plants as their work, while for others like Sorolla in Madrid, his courtyard home was both a sanctuary and a source of ideas. This book is as unmissable for art lovers as it is for anyone who knows the joy of time spent in gardens, offering an intriguing insight into the lives of these great painters and the gardens which inspired them to their creative heights.

  • Waterstones The Romantic Home

    Price: £25.00

    Brand: Waterstones

     

    Description: Who doesn't long for a little more romance in their home? The kind that makes your heart feel at ease when you walk inside and close the door on our fast-paced world. Today's romantic interiors come in many different forms, but all share a passion for beauty. Romantic rooms are filled with treasures that honour the past and defined by graceful furnishings, subtle hues and evocative items. It's a style that easily mixes with other design eras from traditional rustic and French country to modern luxe. In The Romantic Home, Fifi O' Neill presents twelve well-loved homes to set the heart a-flutter. In the first chapter, 'Reclaimed Romance', she visits an artist's cottage and a restored 1902 loft in Minnesota. 'Modern Crush' features a designer's apartment in Los Angeles and a sensitively updated Rhode Island home. In 'Love Stories', Fifi reveals a writer's hideaway in Florida and a classically elegant abode on the West Coast. And in the final chapter, 'Classic Vibes', she travels from a vintage-inspired ranch-style home in California to an authentic farmhouse in the South of France. Past meets present in each of these idyllic homes, which combine calm and collected interiors with abundant personal charm.

  • Waterstones Gardens of Style

    Price: £42.50

    Brand: Waterstones

     

    Description: Mother Nature has always been a grand muse, particularly in the world of fashion and design. Many fashion designers, from Christian Dior to Carolyne Roehm, have drawn on gardens and their beguiling botanicals to inspire and inform their collections. These designers and their interior design counterparts, such as Celerie Kemble, Bunny Williams, and Jeffrey Bilhuber, also like to retreat to their own elegant salon verts to restore their creativity. This beautifully photographed book shows where these tastemakers find much of their inspiration within the serene horticultural havens of their homes. From the lush foliage of the Dominican Republic to the graceful flowerbeds of America s East Coast, the charming roses and clipped boxwood of England s country manors, and the patterned parterres of France s enchanting Provence region Gardens of Style illustrates the symbiotic relationship between horticulture and haute couture and between nature s beautiful forms and those found in interior design. For instance, the garden of former Hermes designer Nicole de Vesian is a sublime weave of patterns and textures, while the garden of Christian Dior features many of the roses that inspired his glamorous gowns. The result is an alluring compendium of designers gardens to delight and inspire readers in turn.
