In contrast to the Victorian penchant for dark furniture, bric-a-brac, and heavy draperies, de Wolfe advised her readers to let in natural light, to replace gaudy colors with beige and ivory, and to abandon clutter.

The resulting rooms are contemporary bedrooms—some more appropriately described as suites rather than single rooms—from Europe and North America that evoke a spectrum of classical styles updated for the finest in twenty-first century living.

From the moment she walked up the driveway and her palms began to perspire, Williams knew she wanted the affair to last forever. In her sumptuous new book, An Affair with a House, the venerable decorator describes in detail how she and her husband, antiques dealer John Rosselli, rescued, nurtured, renovated, and decorated the well-worn house, giving it new life as they restored each room, resurrected the abandoned gardens, and filled this weekend home with family and friends.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThrough photographs, anecdotes, how-tos, and recipes, Williams provides a rare inside look at a top decorator's retreat and explains how she approached the joys, pleasures, challenges, obstacles, and day-to-day realities of creating a beautiful, comfortable country home. An Affair with a House provides a wealth of advice on interior decor and such topics as mixing design styles, but it also addresses such practical matters as stocking the pantry and outfitting the linen closet. Beautiful photographs of the house, the gardens, and the property's rustic structures provide an intimate glimpse of the couple's lifestyle and illustrate a way of life we can all appreciate and learn from.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Cary Collection","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":12104795848766,"sku":"17619","price":150.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0210\/6626\/products\/2022_04_13_08_00_08_001.jpg?v=1649863068"},{"product_id":"anatomy-for-interior-designers","title":"\"Anatomy For Interior Designers and How to Talk to a Client\" 1951 2nd Edition","description":"\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003ePlus: How To Talk To A Client\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eSCHROEDER, Francis de N.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e[96] pp.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eWhitney Publications, Inc\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e1951\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eSecond Edition\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e10 1\/4\" x 9 1\/4\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eBookplate of Lucien Therrien\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eJacket design by Alvin Lustig\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eVG\/ VG\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eScroll Down for (9) Additional Scans:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eJournalist and art critic Schroeder was the editor of INTERIORS from 1941 until his death in 1952, documenting the midcentury modern revolution in industrial and interior design. The first half of this volume, “Anatomy for Interior Designers,” offers ideal sizes and proportions for the furnishing of private and public spaces: “styles in furniture have nothing to do with these measurements. They will apply just as well to a Louis XV bergère as to a chromium and rawhide chair; to a quick lunch counter as to an office desk; to a Victorian love seat as to a park bench.” The second half, “How to Talk to a Client,” provides practical advice on the pursuit, cultivation, and management of design clients: “It is possible to have a client give final approval to finished drawing without the use of alcohol, but it is apparently seldom done.”\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Cary Collection","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":12104796012606,"sku":"26732","price":150.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0210\/6626\/files\/2025_01_16_11_39_57_001.jpg?v=1737051503"},{"product_id":"antiquaires-the-finest-antique-dealers-in-paris","title":"\"Antiquaires: The Finest Antique Dealers In Paris\" 2000 GAILLEMIN, Jean-Louis","description":"\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eGAILLEMIN, Jean-Louis\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e[230] pp.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eAssouline\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e2000\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e12\" x 9 3\/4\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eFine\/ Fine\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eJean-Louis Gaillemin recounts the fascinating history of antique dealing.
