Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. The second Rizzoli publication dedicated to an important member of the Mexican and Latin American architectural vanguard, celebrating exceptional craftsmanship and refined sophistication, and guided by the ideals of Mexican modernism.Farca looks to the work of the late design icon Luis Barragan for inspiration, blending tradition with modernity. He focuses on the importance of collaborating with indigenous artisans who work in age-old Mexican crafts, to create environmentally sustainable, indoor/outdoor spaces and furniture with a palette of natural materials, translated through a contemporary luxury lens. This lavish volume features sixteen of his newly built private residences in Mexico and California that show off his spectacular designs for seamless indoor and outdoor living.Notable projects include sun-drenched beach houses in Los Angeles and throughout Mexico that integrate artisanal practices, such as mosaics and patterns of hammered copper, which contribute to the local communities. At the start of any project, Farca and his team undertake a detailed bioclimatic study of a site, documenting the wind, light, and temperature conditions hour to hour and day to day. Those shifts generate the framework for layouts, form, flow, and material choices. At the Los Jales house in Jalisco sun washes deliberately across exterior walls of stucco and cast-in-place concrete, their distinctive surfaces shifting into an immersive tapestry of complementary gray tones, a tableau en grisaille. Beyond the exterior walls the unexpected awaits, be it a sublime courtyard planted with branching cacti; a seamless sweep of pool, surf, and sky; or a floating central staircase bathed in natural light. Step through the front doors and the outside world recedes as textures, surfaces, finishes, and geometries come into focus, inviting exploration and contemplation. The second Rizzoli publication dedicated to an important member of the Mexican and Latin American architectural vanguard, celebrating exceptional craftsmanship and rened sophistication, and guided by the ideals of Mexican modernism.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. New York and Londonbased interior designer Bryan OSullivan creates spaces that mix modern and historical influences, resulting in luxuriously chic interiors that are both glamourous and welcoming. This book, the designers first, showcases the groundbreaking work of a remarkable and rising talent.Old-school Hollywood glamour with a contemporary touch is the hallmark of interior designer Bryan OSullivans repertoire, on full display in his commissions for the Red Room at the Connaught Hotel, the much-admired Berkeley Bar & Terrace, and the art deco Painters Room at Claridges, all some of Londons most fabulous and plush spaces. With expertise in both architecture and interiors, OSullivans broader vision is reflected as well in selected residential projects, which range from a family house for a prominent restaurateur, a Fifth Avenue apartment in New York, and a historic early 1900s hotel particulier in Pariss 16th arrondissement.OSullivan mines history for inspiration, resulting in a look that could be described as pared-back luxe. The key is in the mix, blending classical proportions with contemporary elements, re-covering vintage or antique furniture in modern fabrics, creating warmth and intimacy within generous spaces, and always achieving very chic, stylishly comfortable, livable spaces. New York and London based interior designer Bryan O Sullivan creates spaces that mix modern and historical influences, resulting in luxuriously chic interiors that are both glamourous and welcoming.
