Domus by Oberto Gili Pdf

An insider’s tour of the most creative and inspiring rooms belonging to tastemakers—artists, interior designers, craftspeople, collectors, and aristocrats—in Italy today. Italy has been a source of inspiration for generations of artists and lovers of beauty. In this book, Italians Oberto Gili and Marella Caracciolo Chia take us around the country and into the homes of some of its most stylish habitués. From rural estates in Tuscany and spectacular seaside villas to an eighteenth-century palace in Puglia and city residences in Turin, Milan, Venice, Rome, and Naples, the properties reveal the unique personal visions of the owners and the inescapable appeal of Italian style. The diversity of places echoes the wide range of geographical contexts. Each interior acts as a source of surprise and an impetus for creativity, reflecting the individual tastes and talents of those who live and have lived there—designer Carlo Mollino, couturier Stephan Janson, art and literary scholar Mario Praz, and artists Sandro Chia and Alessandro Twombly. In addition to the houses of artists and craftspeople, rooms of visionary interior designers, such as Camilla Guinness, Roberto Peregalli, and Laura Sartori Rimini, are also included. This book—an intimate glimpse into some of the most beautiful and inaccessible dwellings in Italy today—is perfect for aesthetically minded readers with an interest in interior design, Italy, and the art of fine living.

Italian Interiors by Prestinenza Puglisi Pdf

Italienische Innenarchitektur zeichnet sich seit Jahrzehnten durch eine besondere Innovationskraft und Risikobereitschaft aus, nicht nur auf der ästhetischen Ebene, sondern auch bei der Verwendung von neuen Materialien und deren Kombination. Bereitwilliger als anderswo werden hier Einflüsse von Kunst und Design aufgegriffen; die Entwerfenden lassen die Grenzen zwischen diesen Disziplinen mal provokativ, mal subtil verschwimmen. Nicht zuletzt deshalb sind ihre Kreationen für die Ausgestaltung von Restaurants und Geschäften, Privatwohnungen und Hotels, Büros und Museen weltweit gefragt und erweisen sich oftmals als Trendsetter. Das Buch zeigt eine Auswahl neuester Entwürfe, die von 2000 bis 2009 in Italien und anderen Ländern, darunter den USA, Frankreich, Großbritannien, Israel und Dubai, realisiert wurden. Unter den vertretenen Architekten und Gestaltern sind Altmeister wie Renzo Piano, Michele De Lucci und Giorgio Armani, aber auch Vertreter der jungen Generation. Zu den besonderen Merkmalen des Bandes gehört eine umfangreiche Dokumentation durch technische Zeichnungen und Detailfotos.

Italian Living Design by Giuseppe Raimondi Pdf

"Superbly illustrated, this book discusses the interrelationships between culture and design in Italy in the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s. Each decade is introduced with an outline of the popular trends in fashion, cinema, television, and industrial design in the context of Italian politics and society. The author discusses developments in manufacturing and marketing and the effect of economic trends on the design industry. The best of the furniture and design exhibitions and salons of the time are recaptured and their impact on other media is examined. The designs and projects of Franco Albini, Vittorio Gregotti, Gae Aulent, and Ettore Sottsass are among the many that are highlighted. Chairs, lighting, beds, and shelving are displayed in lofts, apartments, and country and suburban houses where conventional decor and cutting-edge furnishings are ingeniously combined. A multitude of products and interiors by the leading Italian designers of the last three decades is documented in beautiful photographs."--

Italian Rustic by Elizabeth Helman-Minchilli Pdf

A celebration of Tuscan farmhouse style, with practical advice on how to bring the look home. For anyone who has ever dreamed of living under the Tuscan sun, Italian Rustic is the next best thing--a step-by-step guide to recreating the romance and appeal of the weathered Italian farmhouse. This nuts-and-bolts guide to building Italian-style walks the reader through all the elements that make the rustic Italian home so unique, from the hand-laid stone walls to the artisanal stucco wall finishes. Author Elizabeth Minchilli, an American design writer based in Rome and Tuscany, received dozens of questions from readers after publishing her last book, Artisan's Restoring a Home in Italy. The queries went beyond the usual searches for fabric and couches. "People were hungry to know how terra-cotta tiles were laid, or how fireplaces were built," she says. Italian Rustic, researched with the help of her Italian architect husband, is the user-friendly result: a book that explains, in clear text accompanied by photographs and drawings, how to lay a tile floor a la Italiana, or add a Tuscan-style pergola to any garden. With more than 300 stunning photographs shot on location in Tuscany and Umbria, the book contains profiles of local artisans, engaging text on how the farmhouse style evolved, and targeted advice on how Americans can find Italian-style building materials and craftsmen close to home. This essential sourcebook will appeal to anyone building an addition or an entire house from scratch, or for homeowners who want to add just a touch of Italian style to their houses.

The Early Modern Italian Domestic Interior, 1400–1700 by Erin J. Campbell,Stephanie R. Miller,Elizabeth Carroll Consavari Pdf

Emphasizing on the one hand the reconstruction of the material culture of specific residences, and on the other, the way in which particular domestic objects reflect, shape, and mediate family values and relationships within the home, this volume offers a distinct contribution to research on the early modern Italian domestic interior. Though the essays mainly take an art historical approach, the book is interdisciplinary in that it considers the social implications of domestic objects for family members of different genders, age, and rank, as well as for visitors to the home. By adopting a broad chronological framework that encompasses both Renaissance and Baroque Italy, and by expanding the regional scope beyond Florence and Venice to include domestic interiors from less studied centers such as Urbino, Ferrara, and Bologna, this collection offers genuinely new perspectives on the home in early modern Italy.

Italian Empire Furniture by Enrico Colle Pdf

Napoleon's arrival in Italy in the late 18th century had far-reaching effects-- trends evolved not only in the social and political realms, but also in the country's style and taste. From tapestries to furniture, a new look emerged in interiors, a style connected with Italy's past and Napoleon's ideals. Enrico Colle, one of Italy's leading experts on Italian furniture and period interiors provides the first systematic catalog of this rich time and place in decorating history. "Italian Empire Furniture" is the definitive analysis of its subject. A thorough overview of the style, followed by detailed entries on major pieces of furniture, and full-page color illustrations make this long-awaited reference book a priceless addition to the libraries of scholars and collectors alike. This volume, the first of a series devoted to styles of furniture, illustrates the singular and highly original direction that the Empire style took in Italy during the period of French rule and of the Restoration, up to around 1840, when it was gradually overshadowed by a revival of historical styles. The introduction provides a thorough overview of the evolution of the Empire style in Italy and is accompanied by a treasure trove of archival material including prints and drawings from design manuals of the period. The role of the major art institutions of the time, as well as the influence of key individuals, from architects and interior decorators, to cabinetmakers and their patrons, adds to this landmark study of the complex artistic and cultural influences behind the formation and evolution of the Empire style. Each chapter in this definitive study is devoted to the interiors of the royalpalaces of key duchies and kingdoms. In particular, emphasis is given to the taste of the court, and to examining the interest shown by the various sovereigns of the Italian states in encouraging the development of the Empire style within the framework of prevailing individual tastes. Included in this volume are detailed inventories and catalogue entries complete with a thoroughly researched provenance for each item of furniture. With over 200 color photographs, approximately 235 drawings, and an informed critical text, "Empire Style in Italy" is a significant work that casts new light on the subject and serves as an invaluable resource for scholars and furniture collectors alike.

Furniture and Interiors of the 1970s by Anne Bony,Ivan Rakočević Pdf

"The 1970s - a revolutionary decade born out of the turbulent late 1960s, during which militant outspokenness and cultural unrest shook up society with lasting effects. Protest against cultural norms and a disillusionment in consumerism went hand in hand with a strong sense of social commitment that propelled radical creative and functional changes in design." "Furniture and Interiors of the 1970s bears witness to the fusion of influences - both societal and individual - that took hold during this explosive decade and catapulted design into its contemporary framework."--BOOK JACKET.
