A book about booksÂ…Well, a book about living with books. This is a must-have for anyone who likes books, sells books, collects books, or just enjoys looking at unique, book-filled interiors. Dominique Dupuich and Roland Beaufre lead a guided tour of the libraries of passionate readers, showing how they fit their love of books into their homes and lives.
Artists, interior decorators, graphic designers, fashion designers, writers, collectors, journalists and business people - all have different ways of engaging with books as a design challenge. In Living With Books discover how they built up the libraries of their dreams and explore the many ways of striking a balance between style and practicality, modern trends and classic styling, and strict organization and carefree clutter - a blueprint for any collection!
Roland Beaufre is an internationally renowned photographer who has published several books and contributed to many decorating and art magazines. His lavish illustrations for Living With Books show us how the right combination of shelving, lighting, and accessories can be brought together with a dash of imagination to create a unique interior. He and Dominique Dupuich, a journalist and stylist, present an irresistible world of inventive ways to showcase books at their best.
