Liaigre: Twelve Projects

Description

Over the past twenty-five years, Christian Liaigre has built his reputation on the refined quality of his furniture and interiors. With a keen sensibility for space and light, design inspiration drawn from local cultures and traditions, an affinity for artisanal work, and meticulous attention given to the sourcing of materials, the designer combines the art of understatement with great elegance. According to Liaigre, interior architecture and design should not be a reflection of fashion and trends, but should instead embody timelessness, tranquil beauty, and subtle luxury. For Liaigre, comfort resides in delicacy and rareness. Featuring private and public spaces from Nantucket to Malibu, from Athens to Korea, and from the Caribbean to London, this book takes the reader inside his rarefied world to reveal his signature style. Highlights of his freshest creations encompass the full range of his talents in furniture and interior design. This handsome large-format volume is a visual feast of exquisitely reproduced images, offering inspiration for professional architects and interior designers, as well as home chic aficionados
