A successful home is the perfect synthesis of personality and zeitgeist; it is a living work of art, a cultural artifact, and the object of ceaseless curiosity. Highly sensitive to this phenomenon, our Interiors Now series tracks the constantly evolving and multifaceted fabric of contemporary interior design around the world. Each new volume-destined for casual readers and professionals alike-assembles a fresh and inspiring collection of recently created residences that demonstrates how to bring out the best in the space that matters most: your home. Whether it is photographers Inez van Lamsweerde & Vinoodh Matadin's New York loft with its Eames 2.0 alder expanses and cozy corners, Jacques Grange's relaxed romance for Francis Ford Coppola's palazzo in Southern Italy, or the apartment of a young art collector couple in Mumbai-all the projects have been chosen as expressions of personal vision that together give the full picture of what really counts in interior decoration right now. 34 sophisticated residences around the world, each telling a story about the place and the people who live there A roundup of the new elite in global interior design, with projects completed both for themselves and for clients who are friends Projects directed by home owners themselves that display a whole new level of D.I.Y. creativity Contact details for all featured architects, decorators, furniture artists, craftspeople, and top class suppliers
