Pierre Yovanovitch

Description

With his interiors and furniture design regularly gracing the pages of Architectural Digest, T Magazine, Elle Decor, Wallpaper*, and more, French interior-architect Pierre Yovanovitch has cemented his status as one of his generation's most in-demand talents. The designer's highly anticipated first book explores his refined yet subtle style and signature haute couture aesthetic through an array of extraordinary interiors. Specially commissioned photographs take readers on a journey across the globe to discover Yovanovitch's unique style rooted in pared-back refinement. Stunning private residences in New York, Paris, London, Tel Aviv, and the Swiss Alps underscore Yovanovitch's mastery of volume tempered by strict lines, as well as his use of authentic materials including wood, stone, and metal. Known for his ability to re-envision centuries-old spaces into modernised demeures, Yovanovitch's expertise shines through in a seventeenth-century chateau in Provence, as well as a renovation of the Patinoire Royale in Brussels, a skating rink converted into a private contemporary-art museum. This ode to Yovanovitch's work is a necessary addition to design libraries of industry masters and aficionados alike.

"The Paris-based Pierre Yovanovitch is often referred to as an interior architect, given his uncanny ability to create the actual exterior of a space as well as its interior. This book, the first to document his work, reveals the sheer scope of his talents. Readers tour completed residential projects in New York, London, Tel Aviv, Provence, the Swiss Alps, and elsewhere, all of which highlight his signature haute couture aesthetic. It's no wonder that he is among the most sought-after designers of our time." -MILIEU MAGAZINE "Accented by a bespoke chimneypiece, Campana Brothers lounge chairs, and a midcentury Severin Hansen floor lamp, the never-before-published space is a standout from Yovanovitch's eagerly anticipated first monograph, Pierre Yovanovitch: Interior Architecture (Rizzoli, September)." -ARCHITECTURAL DIGEST.COM
