Modern Essentials
by Rozemarijn De Witte
Modern Essentials shows how to achieve a sense of space and ease in the home by harmonizing aesthetics with practicality. Readers learn ways to create a home for living, not merely a designer showcase. The book features four major current styles: Natural, New Classical, Soft Design, and Color and Contrast and step-by-step guidance for achieving these four key contemporary styles. Dozens of color illustrations and over 300 color photos show how to achieve each look through the use of interior space and light, textures and furnishings, and design details from tableware to door handles. Color palettes, fabric swatches, suggested flooring materials, and ideal accessories are shown, and since practicality is crucial, the final chapter covers basic considerations from planning to room layout to home security.

Prairie Style
by Lisa Skolnik
Originated and championed by Frank Lloyd Wright, Prairie Style is as fresh today as it was at its inception 100 years ago, as evidenced by some of the finest and most original structures and interiors America has ever known. Striking color photographs and illuminating text show to full advantage the sweeping lines, natural materials, precise forms, and integration of building and landscape that are the hallmarks of Prairie Style. By taking a total approach to the entire environment, Wright and his contemporaries blur the line between architecture and design. Knowing the furnishings and accessories integral to their overall aesthetic, built-in architectural details, cabinets lining the walls, window seats, and furniture noted for its rectilinear form, natural wood finish, and art-glass accents (many pieces of which are still manufactured today)--discover for yourself the refined elegance that makes Prairie Style such a favorite around the world.
