Synopsis "The World of Apartamento: Ten Years of Everyday Life Interiors (in English)"
"Apartamento is how The Paris Review might have turned out had Sottsass been its guiding light instead of Hemingway. . . . A humble yet luminous print object that perfectly embodies the editors' grass-roots aesthetic." --New York Times The World of Apartamento is a celebration of Apartamento magazine's 10th anniversary and features the best and most inspirational interiors from the publication's pages. Like the magazine itself, the book is a carefully developed editorial mix--high-quality writing and beautiful photography--that communicates genuine stories and intimate moments. Apartamento is widely recognized as today's most influential interiors magazine. International, well-designed, and simply written since 2008, it is an indispensable resource for individuals who are passionate about the way they live. It breaks the traditional magazine boundaries that separate home design from homeowner and offers readers a glimpse inside the lived-in, often-cluttered homes of celebrities and industry legends such as REM front man Michael Stipe and indie screen queen Chloë Sevigny. With more than 300 photographs and an eclectic mix of subjects like François Halard, Yorgos Lanthimos, Ezra Koenig, Paz de la Huerta, and more, the book is an inspiring look at individual design choices. This is the perfect coffee table book for anyone who loves Apartamento or likes their interior design more Real World than Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous. This is a different perspective on home, design, architecture, and décor, one that's not aimed at just the elegant and well-appointed. It's raw, not staged, and has a vibe different than every other magazine that features homes and décor. Here is home style that everyone, young or old, rich and poor, will be able to relate to and get inspired by.
