A passion for luxury and beauty propels the multifaceted work of
acclaimed international architect and interior designer Robert
Couturier. Robert Couturier's aesthetic is a dialogue between Old
World elegance and contemporary design. His masterful approach
effortlessly brings eras together, for example a Louis XVI commode
with a 1960s lamp. Couturier's name has become synonymous with
continental and international style, and he is known for composing
adventurous rooms that have a witty flair. All his interiors extol
the importance of how a home should stimulate the five senses, from
the tactile feel of upholstery to the visual presentation of
objects that leads a person through a space. The book opens with a
tour of Couturier's country retreat in bucolic Kent, Connecticut.
Composed of neoclassical-style pavilions, early American
guesthouses, and beautiful gardens, the house features imaginative
rooms that are filled with his collections of European art,
furniture, and decorative objects. A selection of the designer's
other projects--from smart contemporary apartments to romantic
Mexican villas to a stately English manor--provides further
inspiration.
