Description

Bold combinations of primary and secondary colours; exquisitely crafted trims, embroidery, lampshades and countless accessories (all designed by her); imaginative room surfaces from silver leaf to custom stencilling ... These are but a few of the signature elements of a Katie Ridder interior. Katie Ridder: More Rooms explores her unique aesthetic room by room to underscore the astounding breadth and depth of her decorating ingenuity.

The illuminating text by Jorge Arango details Ridder's singularly creative approach to the essential elements of the room, including furniture plan, colour, lighting, finishes, pattern, layering and scale.

Illustrated with specially commissioned photographs by Eric Piasecki and featuring a foreword by former editor-in-chief of House & Garden Dominique Browning, Katie Ridder: More Rooms provides endless inspiration for design aficionados.
