内容简介 "Courtesy of a sneak preview from the great folks at Rizzoli, TT was enthralled by page after page of the most elegant and sophisticated, yet somehow understated, interiors imaginable."
作者简介 Christian Liaigre, an internationally celebrated French interior designer, has conceived homes for Calvin Klein, Karl Lagerfeld, Bryan Adams, François Nars, and Kenzo. His renowned commercial projects include the Mercer Hotel in New York, the Hakkasan restaurant in London, the Hotel Montalembert and Market restaurant in Paris, and the Club Med in Bora Bora. Thomas Luntz is an established journalist, author, and film director. Jean-Philippe Piter has contributed to W magazine and Marie-Claire Maison, and is the founder, director, and photographer of Pure.

Liaigre's spare, Zen-meets-luxury aesthetic is instantly recognizable in these six sumptuously designed locations. The first spreads are of a house in Orense, Spain: cue lots of dark wood, deep reds and rich leathers, with such Iberian flourishes as a sofa embroidered with motifs drawn from toreadors' costumes. The rest of the book takes a romp through five similarly lush interiors, including a 184-foot yacht, an island sanctuary in Bora Bora and homes in Geneva, Toronto and the Côte d'Azur. Part of the pleasure of the book lies in the material voyeurism it provides; it's always fun to see how the other half lives. The risk of having such a distinctive style as Liaigre, however, is that after a while it starts to look a little dated, and for all the clean lines and pleasing textures, these interiors look like they were created as sets for lifestyle magazines—something ultimately antihuman and contrived lingers. No matter: the designer has plenty of fans, and for those who want just a touch of Liaigrism, there will no doubt soon be plenty of mainstream knockoff versions of his oft-imitated look. (Sept.)

Review
"...it is definitely a fantasy book filled with jaw-dropping photography, it also reveals Liaigre's unmatched attention to detail. Keep it on your coffee table and thumb through when you are in need of a Cinderella moment."
