Southern Rooms: Interior Design from Miami to Houston

Book Description
Southern Rooms celebrates innovative and imaginative interiors from a diverse landscape known as the American South. Life in this special part of the world revolves around a refined lifestyle, gracious spirit, abounding hospitality, and good manners. Southerners have a legacy of appreciation for fine architecture, furnishings, art, and accessories. Whatever the inspiration or direction of the winds of fashion, good design in the South has always been firmly rooted in a certain set of basic rules. Proportion, scale, unity, balance, rhythm, and interest are constant. Compiled into three sections—Coastal South, Deep South, New South—each with an introduction describing the design philosophies and traditions of the particular region. The work of thirty-two interior designers is presented in lavish color along with their ideas and philosophies. In these pages, the reader will find a wealth of design and decorating ideas. They will gain an understanding of how each designer uses color, volume, detail, and space to create distinctive rooms. In turn, these rooms reflect the grace and beauty of the South itself.
