Description

A stunning celebration of Ralph Lauren s signature home collections including the designer s own homes which have inspired the world of interior design for nearly half a century. As with his celebrated fashion designs, Ralph Lauren brings glamour and style to his home collections, becoming the first designer to merge the two worlds. Lauren s vision for both is deeply personal and rooted in an understanding of the comfort and beauty we desire. In this lavish 500-plus-page volume written in his own words, Lauren shares his extensive home collections as well as never-before-seen imagery of his own homes from his rustic Colorado ranch and his tropical Jamaican retreat to his elegant New York country estate and his casual beach house in Montauk each of which embody different ways of living. And each of which has influenced his home collections. Lauren s collections create environments that tell stories we can all relate to. Organized thematically into evocative visions such as Estate, Bohemian, Adirondack, Seaside, or Ranch, Ralph Lauren A Way of Living makes these stories come alive, celebrating Lauren s passion for living beautifully, wherever one calls home. With stunning photography and commentary by admirers such as Hillary Clinton and Oprah Winfrey, this is the definitive volume on Ralph Lauren s enduring vision for the way we live in our homes.
