Robert Couturier : Designing Paradises Hardback
by Robert Couturier, Tim McKeough
Hardback
Description
A passion for luxury and beauty propels the multifaceted work of acclaimed international architect and interior designer Robert Couturier.
Robert Couturier's aesthetic is a dialogue between Old World elegance and contemporary design.
His masterful approach effortlessly brings eras together, for example a Louis XVI commode with a 1960s lamp.
Couturier's name has become synonymous with continental and international style, and he is known for composing adventurous rooms that have a witty flair.
All his interiors extol the importance of how a home should stimulate the five senses, from the tactile feel of upholstery to the visual presentation of objects that leads a person through a space.
The book opens with a tour of Couturier's country retreat in bucolic Kent, Connecticut.
Composed of neoclassical-style pavilions, early American guesthouses, and beautiful gardens, the house features imaginative rooms that are filled with his collections of European art, furniture, and decorative objects.
A selection of the designer's other projects-from smart contemporary apartments to romantic Mexican villas to a stately English manor-provides further inspiration.
