This elegant monograph presents the story of the designer s
boutique firm, James Boyd Niven Design. With five chapters divided
by theme and geographical location (Urban/Buenos Aires,
Rural/Campo, Austral/Patagonia, Hospitality/Montevideo, and Beach
Horseback riding/Jose Ignacio, Uruguay), the book features multiple
homes illustrating each style through a coherent and amicable
aesthetic. The aromas and flavours of these regions are compounded
in this book to illustrate the varied South American lifestyles and
cultures. A section highlights table settings designed to
complement the projects and to tell a story through the five
senses. Classic and timeless photographs showcase standout
properties, including Boyd Niven s own 12-room house in the Palermo
Hollywood area of Buenos Aires, the farmhouses he has completed in
Argentina and Uruguay, and the 100-room luxury hotel he recently
designed in Montevideo. Boyd Niven s projects embody a chic,
contemporary sensibility through the creative reuse of traditional
design elements. Lastly, to complement the interiors illustrated
throughout the book and position them within a historical and
cultural framework, the projects are interwoven with artistic
vistas of well-known city blocks, buildings, and landscapes.
