Synopsis

One of the world’s foremost interior designers focuses on color and its use in creating truly evocative personal interiors. For forty years, Tricia Guild has set the pace with her acclaimed interiors and up-to-the-minute collections of fabrics, wallpapers, and furnishings. She is celebrated for her extraordinary gift for combining bold patterns, chinoiserie, and Indian influences with contemporary lines and an impeccable sense of color that has made her one of the most sought-after interior designers today. Here, she shares her systematic approach to understanding and working with color, pattern, and texture, exploring themes that shape and inspire her stylish and sensuous yet playful sensibility. She begins by defining her notion of five basic color families and then demonstrates how to use color and pattern with impact and confidence to create glamorous, dramatic environments. With a knack for beautiful and dramatic spaces that do not sacrifice comfort, Tricia Guild shares her years of experience in creating memorable living spaces. Examples from her own acclaimed designs coupled with stunning original photography of real-world examples from all over the globe—from contemporary London lofts to coastal New England cottages and California Wine Country estates—complements a text rich in insight from the designer’s perspective.
