A collection of nine contemporary homes by architect Celeste
Robbins, who imbues her modern designs with warmth and emotion In
her first monograph, Chicago-based architect Celeste Robbins of
Robbins Architecture proves that contemporary design can be
inviting, comfortable, and graciously responsive to how we live.
Illustrating Robbins’s holistic vision, which integrates
architecture, interior design, and landscape, The Meaningful Modern
Home features nine significant projects across the United States
realized in different styles and natural materials. All offer
living proof of how modernism can be warm and rooted in a vivid
sense of place.
This rising star s first monograph showcases vibrant, elegantly
stylish rooms that offer bits of the unexpected that reflect a deep
connection to their surroundings. Having apprenticed with such
celebrated New York interior designers as David Easton, Bunny
Williams, and David Kleinberg, Manger recently launched his own
firm. He has quickly established himself as a top designer with a
well-heeled clientele designing inviting interiors that resonate

artisans and workrooms for custom work result in impeccable homes
that will remain enviably chic for generations to come. Manger s
interiors are further distinguished by their strong connection to
locale with their sense of authenticity. Throughout this stunning
book, Manger introduces fundamental elements that inform his design
choices for a several magnificent projects, giving readers a window
into his process. Highlights include a Park Avenue apartment in an
iconic Candela building; an original Shingle-style cottage in
Southampton, New York; a historically restored house perched on the
cliffs of St. Andrews, Scotland; a Haussmann pied-a-terre on
Boulevard St. Germain in Paris; and a contemporary home overlooking
the Bay of Palma in Mallorca, Spain. Regardless of location, every
project, captured in stunning photography, combines traditional
inspiration with contemporary elegance and suitability, placing
Manger in a league of his own.
Jeffrey Bilhuber has created the ultimate decorating handbook for
those who love to go to Instagram or Pinterest for inspiration and
design knowledge. Kicking aside the standard interior decorator
format of showcasing work house by house, the book is divided into
chapters that illustrate how to make your home more comfortable,
happy, colourful, personal, lighter and brighter, sexy, charming,
and cosy. Using iconic images spanning the breadth of his
illustrious career, each page sings with a practical takeaway that
leaves the reader thinking, Well, I never thought of it like that.
Bilhuber s classically informed point of view mixed with his
tell-it-like-it-is humour make for memorable tips that will prove
valuable the next time you re shopping for a sofa, making a bed, or
considering paint colours. From sleek city townhouses to rambling
country manors, he s found that ultimately all clients have the
same goals regardless of interests, budget, or location. Those
clients have included bold-face names like Anna Wintour, Iman,
Mariska Hargitay, and Elsa Peretti. And the same advice he shared
with them, he now shares with you.
