Jamie Drake's New American Glamour, First Edition Hardcover Book

About the Item

Jamie Drake's New American glamour. Designer hardcover Coffee table book. New York: Bulfinch Press, 2005. Stated first edition hardcover with no dust jacket as issued. 175 pp. A colorful book by American designer Jamie Drake that illustrates his definition of glamour through his interiors. Jamie explains how his style is derived, in part, from the old MGM motto: "Make it big! Do it right! Give it class!" It includes many of Jamie's illustrations with sections on luster, texture, color, curves and mixing. Jamie Drake, the man behind some of this country's most dynamic, distinctive, and livable interiors, and voted one of the Top AmericanDesigners by House Beautiful and New York Magazine, knows how to create seriously delightful environments. Equally comfortable in traditional and contemporary styles, he is known for his flair with bold, fearless color. New American Glamour captures Drake's signature lush, high-wattage eclecticism with 175 full-color images - the majority of which have been photographed especially for this book by WilliamWaldron. The book covers Drake's take on making an ordinary room extraordinary using five basic principles: Luster, Texture, Color, The Curve. Jamie Drake Bulfinch Press, 2005 - Architecture - 175 pages.

  • Ice Cold. "Megan Thee Stallion", Limited Edition Book with Signed Fine Art Print
    By TASCHEN
    Located in Los Angeles, CA
    The definitive photographic history of how hip-hop blinged out and redefined the world of jewelry, luxury, and style. Signed color inkjet print on archival paper, 16 x 20 in.; hardcover volume in a slipcase, 9.8 x 13.4 in., 6.29 lb., 388 pages. Whether it’s diamond-encrusted grills, oversized “truck” style chains, bust-down Rolex and Patek Philippe watches, or a Tiffany necklace, jewelry is a cornerstone of hip-hop culture. Glittering, blinged-out jewels are the shining statement of a collective identity: unapologetic, charismatic, and street savvy. Spanning the history of hip-hop jewelry, from the 1980s to today, Ice Cold: A Hip-Hop Jewelry History is a stunning compilation of storytelling and visuals. Hundreds of extraordinary images of every major hip-hop artist on record celebrate how “ice” has become a proclamation of identity and self-expression. Starting with Run-DMC’s gold Adidas pendants and Eric B. & Rakim’s ostentatious dookie rope chains and Mercedes medallions, the jewelry then transforms from street style into a booming design culture. The hip-hop tradition of “show up and show out” reaches new heights with artists like Pharrell Williams, Jay-Z, Gucci Mane, and Cardi B...
