Comme le savent tous les bibliophiles, une collection de livres permet non seulement d'accéder à un plaisir et à un savoir sans fin, mais aussi, lorsqu'elle est habilement déployée dans la maison, de créer une multitude d'impressions décoratives. Ces jours-ci, nous pourrions réfléchir à un arrangement astucieux de livres derrière nous dans notre bureau à domicile lors de réunions vidéo, et certaines entreprises fournissent même des livres en vrac pour améliorer l'arrière-plan des appels Zoom. Dans ce guide magnifiquement illustré - maintenant publié en livre de poche pour la première fois - la bibliophile autoproclamée Leslie Geddes-Brown propose des idées inspirantes mais pratiques sur la façon de tirer le meilleur parti des livres dans chaque pièce et recoin oublié de la maison. Dans son introduction, Geddes-Brown met l'accent sur la polyvalence et le pouvoir durable des livres, tandis que les chapitres suivants explorent tous les aspects clés de leur stockage et de leur présentation. « Living with Books » montre comment ils peuvent améliorer l'atmosphère d'une maison, en en faisant un lieu accueillant et mémorable. « Travailler avec des livres » envisage différentes manières d'organiser les livres de référence essentiels, de la bibliothèque qui est un parangon d'ordre et de logique aux piles de livres apparemment chaotiques dont un auteur pourrait avoir besoin en permanence à ses côtés ou empilés sur le sol. « Designing for Books » explore des solutions de stockage, d'étagères et d'éclairage élégantes, et fournit des conseils sur la combinaison de livres avec d'autres objets pour créer des effets qui sortent de l'ordinaire un intérieur. Enfin, « Tirer le meilleur parti des livres » propose des moyens ingénieux pour exploiter pleinement leur attrait durablement irrésistible. Richement illustré de photographies représentant des maisons du monde entier et d'un répertoire annoté de fournisseurs et de ressources, ce guide engageant inspirera tous les bibliophiles à tirer le meilleur parti de leurs livres bien-aimés et à transformer n'importe quelle pièce en un lieu séduisant et magique.

Paperback. Etat : New. As all book lovers know, a collection of books affords not only access to endless pleasure and knowledge, but also, when skilfully deployed around the home, the opportunity to create a multitude of decorative impressions, whether classically formal, strikingly colourful or apparently artless. In this beautifully illustrated guide - now published in paperback for the first time - the self-confessed bibliophile Leslie Geddes-Brown offers inspirational yet practical ideas about how to make the most of books in every room and forgotten nook of the house. In her introduction, Geddes-Brown emphasizes the versatility and lasting power of books, while subsequent chapters explore every conceivable option for storing and displaying them. 'Living with Books' shows how they can enhance the atmosphere of a home, making it a welcoming and memorable place. 'Working with Books' considers different ways of arranging essential reference books, from the library that is a paragon of order and logic to the seemingly chaotic piles of books an author might need constantly at their elbow or stacked about the floor. 'Designing for Books' explores stylish storage, shelving and lighting solutions, and provides tips on combining books with other objects to create effects that lift an interior out of the ordinary. Finally, 'Making the Most of Books' suggests ingenious ways in which to exploit to the full their enduringly irresistible appeal. From the dramatic impact of floor-to-ceiling shelves to the inviting ease of baskets of books by a cosy fireside; and from discreet shelves that blend into the background to a designer bookcase that becomes the focal point of a room, all the key aspects are considered. Lavishly illustrated throughout with photographs featuring homes from around the world and with an annotated directory of suppliers, this engaging guide will inspire all bibliophiles to get the best from their beloved books and transform any room into an alluring and magical place. AUTHOR: Leslie Geddes-Brown, former Deputy Editor of World of Interiors and Country Life magazines, was a leading writer on interior design, food and gardening. 160 colour illustrations.
