Description
by Marshall Watson (Author)
Acclaimed for his understated elegance and European-inspired style, Marshall Watson creates interiors that blend quiet luxury with true comfort.
With an in-depth knowledge of periods and styles, Watson is known for his meticulously researched designs. His rooms always make architectural sense and his work is often inspired by collaborations with architects. Watson strives to uncover and recognize the special qualities found in historic structures and furnishings, and to preserve them while moving them forward into the present. Watson's interiors are noted for their calm and lightness of being, which he achieves through a gracious sense of proportion and a harmonious continuity via subtle repetitions in color, pattern, material, and silhouette. In his second book, Watson shares all-new work from a wide range of environments, revealing how his design principles adapt to different geographies and climates. Whether a light and airy seaside home in Connecticut or a modern renovation of a barn in Napa Valley, Watson explains how he translates each owner's lifestyle, the house's history, and the setting into a highly original form of elegance. Also, for the first time, Watson invites readers into his own homes--his richly layered apartment in Manhattan and his light and airy East Hampton retreat featuring his own landscaped gardens--discussing how he achieves design harmony and how anyone can discover his or her own. Beautifully photographed and with Watson's thoughtful texts, this inspiring book is a must-have for interior design lovers.Author Biography
