Charm School: the Schumacher Guide to Traditional Decorating for Today
About the Item
More than 250 rooms by iconic designers – the definitive illustrated handbook on the timeless style of grand millennial-chic
Chintz, ruffles, wicker, and skirts: old-school decorating details are making a comeback in a fresh, new way thanks to a crop of designers putting their own unique spin on the classics. Join Schumacher, the legendary design company, for a tour of spaces that meld an appreciation for the past with an eye to the future. This is the first book on ‘grand millennial’ style – the viral term coined by Charm School author Emma Bazilian in a 2019 House Beautiful article. Using Schumacher’s iconic patterns, luminary interior designers illustrate how to breathe new life into traditional design to create chic, modern, swoon-worthy rooms to inspire and emulate. From cozy canopied beds to cheeky needlepoint pillows, its granny chic for the next generation.
Features rooms designed by icons of contemporary interior design, including: Mario Buatta; Mark Hampton; Miles Redd; Parish Hadley; Mary Meehan; Billy Baldwin; and David Hicks.
Chapters comprise visually exuberant explorations of: Chintz & Florals; Checks & Stripes; Toile; Matching Skirts; Slipcovers; Bed Hangings; Window Treatments; Scallops; Wicker & Rattan; Treillage; Decorative Painting; Vintage & Antiques; Collections; and Table Setting.
