What makes an interior quintessentially Parisian? It could be the colour of the walls, the fabrics and the upholstery. It could be the Louis Quinze or Louis Seize chairs. Or, it could even be something as discreet as the clock on the mantelpiece; the marquetry; the panelling or the mouldings. More than just a collection of shots of Parisian apartments, The Paris Interior examines the different elements that specifically epitomise Parisian chic - and why. Each chapter focuses in detail on a specific style or theme, from Louis XV to the moderne response to Orientalism, taking in object trouves , boiserie (wood panelling) and toiles. The result is not just a sumptious and inspiring view of living in the world's greatest style capital, but an invaluable work of reference that traces the history of the styles we have come to perceive as the essence of Parisian sophistication - from their origins to their influence on contemporary design and crafts.
