The most interesting interiors reflect the choices of the people who actually live in them. The spaces in this book may have been gutted or rebuilt, adapted or little changed, or even just redecorated, but they were not produced with high budgets or under the watchful gaze of interior designers. They express the true simplicity that everyone can create from what they have available and what they love. This is a refreshing, resourceful – and often more eco-conscious – approach to living. Renowned photographer Solvi dos Santos has travelled worldwide to provide this intimate insight into special yet simple living: from a converted church near New York, or a houseboat off the Danish coast, to a quarryside home in Ibiza. Henrietta Thompson’s text uncovers the stories behind each home, giving us a glimpse into the lives of the inhabitants. This book – the perfect antidote to jaded style palates – shows us how easy, and how rewarding, it is to be Simply Contemporary.

Описание:
Extraordinary seascapes, a rigorous climate, a fascinating amalgamation of cultures, endless summer days and long winter nights these are just some of the factors that have combined to determine the distinctive architecture and way of living that are the essence of Baltic style. Baltic Homes features over twenty houses from this fascinating part of northernmost Europe, painting a sometimes nostalgic, sometimes resolutely modern picture of the area. With over 260 colour photographs by distinguished photographer Solvi dos Santos, this engrossing and seductive book is the perfect window onto a distinctive and beautiful way of life.
