by Stephanie Hoppen
Paperback / softback
Description
This innovative decorating book is a unique combination: a reference book that covers the whole spectrum of window treatments from classical swags and tails to minimalist breaths of muslin -The New Curtain Book is the curtain bible for the twenty-first century. Inside, Stephanie Hoppen presents a series of fascinating master-classes about today' s fashionable window treatments, given by more than thirty of the world' s most innovative designers. The designs illustrated and described show the whole panoply of contemporary styles and materials.
There are classes in classical, traditional designs, and in modern, simple ones; equal weight is also given to dramatic, smart, romantic and country curtains.
The fabrics and materials so creatively used by the designers include everything now possible - from glamorous silk, velvet, taffeta and cashmere, through rural prints, formal stripes, canvas and ticking, to twenty-first century Perspex panels, crystal beads and metallic coile.
All tastes are represented here, from the unashamedly rich to the most light and neutral of schemes. Supplementing each master-class are portfolios of examples of the work of many other designers, with an emphasis on their own particular innovations, as well as a wealth of technical advice. Concluding with a directory of styles of curtain, accessories, fabrics and blinds as well as a list of outlets where the essentials can be purchased, The New Curtain Book challenges the boundaries of soft furnishing to provide curtain couture at the cutting edge.
