Weaving mid-century Continental furniture and modern art by the
likes of Frank Stella and Jasper Johns into important American
homes, Summers has created a vast collection of cohesive, covetable
interiors notable for their streamlined beauty. From a contemporary
city penthouse to a 1940s ranch, from Summers Round House, to her
60s Palm Springs getaway, the homes featured range in period and
style, but all will serve as inspiration to readers looking to
decorate in a Modernist tradition. Summers shares her building
blocks of a great modernist house: how the interior should reflect
its setting; how to combine fine art with design; why the interior
and architecture must be linked; how to build collections; how to
modernize traditional houses; and how to restore existing modernist
houses. This is essential reading for fans of modernism and
minimalism.
