Published by Phaidon, the book “Italian Interiors” by journalist Laura May Todd celebrates the Italian art of living through 50 exceptional residences, from Sardinia to Tuscany via Veneto. Diving in pictures.
“An Italian house is a place that lives in harmony with history, whose objects and furniture translate the ideas and passions of its owners; it is a space which, despite the value of the objects it houses, is deliberately designed to accommodate other people” explains Laura May Todd, journalist and author of the book Italian interiors. Published by Phaidon, this beautiful work offers us an intimate dive into fifty residences in La Botte, signed by famous architects, interior designers and designers. Like Carlo Scarpa, Luca Guadagnino or Vincenzo De Cotiis.
A clever mix of styles and periods, these interiors all translate in their own way the unique and resolutely singular character of the Italian art of living. Between Venetian palaces, Milanese apartments, vacation home in Puglia, Alpine refuges and artist's mansion, this work celebrates the great diversity of the country's domestic spaces. A collection that could not be more inspiring.
