Richard Gillette's work is unique and extremely beautiful; a great
vision lauded for fine craftsmanship and painterly attention to
surface and form - his interiors become works of art in their own
right. This book examines 20 house and apartment interiors.
The selection of interiors is about the wow factor--New York
residential spaces that elicit gasps of pleasure and surprise when
first seen. Some are very grand, others sparingly modern or
eclectic. All are exceptional and, Moonan promises, unforgettable.
Groundbreaking rooms include Brooke Astor's elegant library by
Albert Hadley; Gloria Vanderbilt's sublime patchwork bedroom;
Donald Judd's dramatically spare art-filled loft; Adolfo's opulent
and magnificently red entrance hall; a Peter Marino-designed
penthouse with sweeping midtown views; Jamie Drake's stunning
dining room for the mayor's residence, Gracie Mansion; and a
magnificent library in the famous Dakota apartment house. Other
illustrious interior designers and architects represented in the
book include Mario Buatta, Robert Couturier, Albert Hadley, Denning
and Fourcade, Mark Hampton, Philip Johnson, Charlotte Moss, Thomas
O'Brien, Paul Rudolph, Bunny Williams, Paul Rudolph, and Steven
Gambrel. New York is the epicentre of interior-design innovations.
Residents embrace myriad styles--from pure period historicism to
bracing modernity. Moonan investigates the city's best residential
spaces and presents them here, a book for the libraries of design
lovers and professionals in the field.
