Decorating with Carpets A Fine Foundation Book by Heather MacIsaac

Decorating with Carpets
A Fine Foundation
By: Ashley Stark Kenner and Chad Stark
with Heather MacIsaac
In decoration, a carpet’s influence is never outsized. In fact, more than any other element of a room, and as the largest and most expensive component of any design scheme, the effect a carpet has on a space is every bit as great as its size. Decorators have long recognized the importance of a fine carpet, its impact on the colors and textures of a space, its contribution to creating an atmosphere, its feel of luxury, and, with the best examples, its lasting value. Despite their essential role as the bedrock of any design scheme, beautiful carpets have lived in the shadows of recognition. Decorating with Carpets: A Fine Foundation aims to change that oversight, tapping the extensive and remarkable archive of Stark Carpet for interior design’s greatest examples. Over the course of its 75 years, Stark Carpet, the premier purveyor of carpets to the trade in the country, has worked with the each era’s most notable designers, from Billy Baldwin and Dorothy Draper to Sister Parish and Albert Hadley to Mark Hampton and Mario Buatta to contemporary leading lights such as Diamond Baratta, Victoria Hagan, Katie Ridder, and Stephen Gambrel...

Palm Beach Living
By: Jennifer Ash Rudick
Photography by Nick Mele
Explore the pleasures of life in the homes and gardens of the legendary tropical island of Palm Beach
Could it be the subtropical climate and seaside breezes that have drawn multiple generations to Palm Beach for more than a century? Or does its timeless appeal lie in its unique mixture of charming bungalows, sleek minimalist houses, chic apartments, and iconic Mediterranean Revival residences by such legendary architects as Maurice Fatio and John Volk? Though the nation’s most exclusive barrier island is perennially thronged with visitors, few have seen the private homes and gardens showcased in Palm Beach Living. Some of the homes incorporate the exuberant colors of the island’s tropical flora; others opt for a soothing, more neutral palette to contrast with the surrounding landscape. All embrace indoor/outdoor living, and each reflects the singular aesthetic of the owner, realized with the help of renowned architects, including Fairfax & Sammons, Chris Stone and David Fox, Daniel Kahan, and Jeffrey W. Smith; superb landscape architects such as Mario Nievera, Jorge Sánchez...

Made to Measure Architecture & Interiors Book by Will Meyer and Gray Davis
Located in New York, NY
Made to Measure
Meyer Davis, Architecture and Interiors
By: Will Meyer and Gray Davis
with Dan Shaw
Foreword by David Netto
“With finishes or forms, Meyer Davis are not afraid to take a chance. As designers, Will and Gray like to play with opposites and conjure beauty by contrast, putting rustic wood in a skyscraper and maybe a little strongly figured marble in a log cabin. The results are consistently chic, unexpected, charismatic—and perhaps most consistently, humane. They are humane modernists. Coming from another designer, most complimentary of all is to say that their style—while original—seems inevitable, and after you see a project by Meyer Davis you say to yourself, ‘Why didn’t I think of that?’” —David Netto, from the Foreword. Since forming their practice in 1999, Will Meyer and Gray Davis have designed some two hundred private and public spaces that epitomize the hip luxury style of the twenty‑first century. Their interiors are as dazzling and dramatic as they are comfortable and welcoming—a carefully calibrated balancing act that has become their trademark and won them a loyal clientele from the worlds of fashion, design, hospitality, and cutting‑edge businesses. In Made to Measure, Will Meyer and Gray Davis, in collaboration with Architectural Digest and New York Times contributor Dan Shaw, tell the story of their ascent into the upper echelon of American design and share their firm’s philosophy and process. Illustrated with hundreds of stunning photographs, plans, and drawings, the book explores the symbiosis between their residential and commercial projects, showing how each informs the other and how they’ve redefined modern luxury along the way.
Will Meyer was born in Nashville, Tennessee, and studied architecture at Auburn University. Before founding Meyer Davis, he worked for architect Charles Gwathmey, designing homes for clients such as Steven Spielberg and Michael Dell. He lives with his wife and children in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, and East Hampton.
Gray Davis was born in Tennessee and studied at Auburn University. Before forming Meyer Davis, he worked for designers John Saladino and Thomas O’Brien on homes for clients such as Ralph Lauren and Giorgio Armani. He lives with his husband in Greenwich Village and Copake, New York, where they build and restore houses.
Dan Shaw, a founding editor of the New York Times Style section, is a regular contributor to Architectural Digest and writes the “What I Love” column for the New York Times Sunday Real Estate section. He is cofounder of the online magazine Rural Intelligence and has cowritten several books on design, including In the Pink: Dorothy Draper—America’s Most Fabulous Decorator;Class Act: William Haines—Legendary Hollywood Decorator; Mary McDonald Interiors: The Allure of Style; and Bunny Williams’ Point of View.
David Netto, a Los Angeles–based interior and furniture designer and writer, grew up in New York, where he founded his studio in 2000. In 2002 he launched NettoCollection, a pioneering line of modern children’s furniture. From 2010 to 2012 he worked for Deborah...

Kelly Wearstler: Synchronicity
Located in New York, NY
Kelly Wearstler, one of the most irreverent and successful designers working today, continues to push boundaries with her inventive and opulent residential and commercial interiors.
Celebrated for pioneering and provocative interiors that guide global trends, Kelly Wearstler is known for her iconic designs of residences and boutique hotels. Pairing an exploration of materiality, color, and form with an intuitive juxtaposition of contemporary, vintage, architectural, and organic sensibilities, she has defined an aesthetic that is all her own. With a social media following that has grown to exceed two million and expansion into her own lines of furniture, lighting, and decor, hers is one of the most distinctive voices in the interiors world.
Here, in her first new book in four years, Wearstler takes a decidedly bold and minimalist approach to presenting her recent work, profiling seven of her latest and most striking residential and hospitality designs with immersive full-page photography and extraordinary detail. Wearstler’s unique eye and decisive touch are visible throughout, from a sleek and monochromatic home in Venice Beach to a richly textured beach house in Malibu and the dynamic new Proper hotels in Santa Monica and Austin, Texas.

Moscow and St. Petersburg 1900–1920 Art, Life and Culture Book by John E. Bowlt
Located in New York, NY
Moscow and St. Petersburg 1900–1920
Art, Life, and Culture of the Russian Silver Age
By: John E. Bowlt
The twilight of Imperial Russia witnessed a sudden renaissance of the visual, literary, and performing arts, alongside the more exuberant pomp and circumstance of the court and high society. Here was a Silver Age, as it is known in Russia. Much of this new energy was indebted to the movement known as Symbolism, which fell on fertile soil in Mother Russia. Seeking to transcend the conventional barriers of bourgeois civility, the Russian Symbolists lived and created on the edge, which often earned them the sobriquet of Decadent or Degenerate. But, as Sergei Diaghilev declared, theirs was not a moral or artistic decline, but a voyage of inner discovery and a refurbishing of a national culture. Some of the individuals and institutions associated with the Russian Silver Age are well known—Diaghilev and the Ballets Russes, the painting and decoration of Alexandre Benois, Leon Bakst, and Mikhail Vrubel...

Husain was associated with Indian modernism in the 1940s. His early association with the Progressive Artist's Group, or "PAG of Bombay" used modern technique, and was inspired by the "new" India after The Partition of 1947. His narrative paintings, executed in a modified Cubist style, can be caustic and funny as well as serious and sombre. His themes—sometimes treated in series—include topics as diverse as Mohandas K. Gandhi, Mother Teresa, the Ramayana, the Mahabharata, the British raj, and motifs of Indian urban and rural life. Early in his painting career, and until his death, he enjoyed depicting the lively and free spirit of horses in many of his works. Often referred to as the "Picasso of India", Husain is the most celebrated and internationally recognized Indian artist of the 20th century. Husain is primarily known for his paintings, but is also known for his drawings and his work as a printmaker, photographer, and filmmaker. Some of his later works stirred controversy, as they depicted traditional Deities of India in non traditional ways.
He also directed a few movies. In 1967, he received the National Film Award for Best Experimental Film for Through The Eyes of a Painter.[3] In 2004, he directed Meenaxi: A Tale of Three Cities, a film he worked on with his artist son Owais Husain, which was screened in the Marché du Film section of the 2004 Cannes Film Festival.
Husain was born on 17 september 1915 in Pandharpur to a Sulaymani Bohra family who trace their roots back to Gujarat within the last 200 years, and then originally to Yemen. He picked up taste in art through studying calligraphy while he stayed at a Madraasa in Baroda. Husain attended the Sir Jamsetjee Jeejebhoy School of Art in Mumbai. Early in his career Husain painted cinema posters in Mumbai. To earn extra money, he worked for a toy company designing and building toys. He often travelled to Gujarat to paint landscapes when he could afford to.
This was a clique of young artists who wished to break with the nationalist traditions established by the Bengal school of art and to encourage an Indian avant-garde, engaged at an international level. The artists cite "The Partition" of India and Pakistan 14 August 1947, with its resulting religious rioting and heavy loss of life as their reason for forming The Progressive Artist's Group in Bombay in December 1947. The artists saw the Partition as a "turning point" for India, and their new style of art was urged on by, and was also a turning point for, (modern) Indian Art. Husain's first solo exhibit was in 1952 in Zurich. His first U.S.A. exhibit was at India House...
