About the Item

Alberto Pinto was one of the most celebrated interior designers at work in the late 20th century and the early years of the 21st century. In this book he looks to the wonders of the East and a series of interiors inspired by the colours and textures of Morocco, Byzantium, India and beyond. Included in this book are interiors in Europe, North America, and North Africa belonging to the jet set and modern elite. Each interior celebrates opulence, whether with fine damasks and silks, intricate tile work, or glittering objets d'art. Included are other visual stage sets for living that are as breath-taking as they are original -vast terraces over sumptuous gardens, shimmering swimming pools open to the sea and sky, filtered light bouncing off floor-to-ceiling mirrors reflecting an infinity of precious woods in an exquisite parquet floor. 256 pages, Text in English. 1780 grams.
