Architectural Digest at 100: A Century of Style

Product Information

Making AD at 100: A Century of Style—featuring so many of the house-proud, design-savvy stars and tastemakers who have welcomed AD into their private realms over the years—was truly a labor of love for all of us here. We take intellectual property concerns very seriously, but many of these problems can be resolved directly by the parties involved. From a tribute to the chicest supermodel that ever graced the glossies and a retrospective-esque tome dedicated to a master architect, to a glimpse into the rarified world of one of the most exclusive jewellery houses on the planet, these are the best coffee table books to covet, right now.

Our collection of modern heirlooms are designed as the ultimate investment pieces: timeless, long lasting and, hopefully, to one day be handed down for others to enjoy. Celebrating a century of beautiful design, this book highlights an array of design styles within its pages. Inhalt: Introduction -- Remote origins -- The period of formation -- The Tower of Babel -- Crystallisation -- From Dante to Caxton, Luther and Nebrija - Conclusion.In later decades, the progeny of the early modernists, from John Lautner to Frank Gehry, became the new standard-bearers heralded in the magazine’s pages.

Architectural Digest at 100 celebrates the best from the pages of the international design authority.

Smith, Steven Volpe, Kelly Wearstler, and a new generation of talents have picked up the torch of sublime, homegrown California design.From the stylized geometrics of Art Deco and the iconic creations by its pioneering creative director Jeanne Toussaint, to the evolutions of the two of its most coveted icons, the Panther and the Tutti Frutti motifs, this limited-edition, handcrafted volume is sure to enthrall and captivate, even if you aren't a fan of glittering objects. Just as California incubated a particular strain of modernist architecture, the state produced a roster of enormously influential interior designers who riffed on the colors and light of Los Angeles, Palm Springs, Santa Barbara, San Diego, San Francisco, and all points in between.

Julius Shulman and other master photographers chronicled their work in elegant images that helped sell the progressive style to a skeptical public weaned on European-inflected traditionalism.The well-heeled guests—who included the Prince and Princess (also a designer of an eponymous childrenswear line), their daughter Olympia (dressed, along with her mother and Astley, in Dior), Aerin Lauder, Nicky Hilton Rothschild, Vogue’s Hamish Bowles, Claiborne Swanson Frank, and Renaud de Lesquen, President and CEO of Dior North America—subsequently took dessert and coffee in the glossy, wood-paneled library, anchored on one end by a curvy Vladimir Kagan sofa. This genius first edition is printed in 6,000 numbered copies… truly a collector's coffee table book. Among them are Billy Baldwin, Kelly Hoppen and Karim Rashid; and some of the rooms belong or have belonged to luminaries from the worlds of art, fashion and film, such as Yves Saint Laurent, Coco Chanel, Pablo Picasso and Jennifer Aniston.
