内容简介 Modern Comfort is a sourcebook of contemporary decorating that promises a new modernity in which comfort is to the fore. From wall and floor coverings, to furniture, fabrics, lighting and storage, it highlights a range of design ideas for every room, with the emphasis on creating a home that is in tune with the way we live today.

A streamlined modern aesthetic is apparent in the emphasis on the clean shapes of furniture, well thought-out storage, understated color schemes and a consistency of materials throughout a space. But, while there are stainless-steel worktops, tiled walls and glass panels, comfort is ever present too-the natural tone of wood and sisal, seating that is plump and inviting, cozy wool blankets and soft, textured linens.

It is this combination of cool with a softened edge that creates that look and signals a less rigorous more realistic style of interior. Adaptability and ease are essential ingredients. These are spaces that are attractive but also practical, and very much for living in. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
