Description

From the classic elegance of Haussmann's Parisian boulevards and the glorious excesses of Versailles, to the bohemian charms of Toulouse Lautrec's Montmartre and the artist's garret, France has a legendary style.

This beautifully illustrated book explores the elements that combine to create spaces with an identifiably French feel: the architectural details that enhance the framework of a room, the textures and colours that flatter various styles of furniture, options for lighting, mirrors and paintings.

Looking at real homes, antiques dealer and stylist Josephine Ryan demonstrates a keen eye for objects both ordinary and extraordinary, and examines the alchemy of a style that can be either lush and complex or pared-down and rigorous. French Home will help you reinvent your surroundings and gain a touch of French style.
