Liaigre: 12 Projects - by Christian Liaigre (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

This classic reference to visionary interior designer Christian Liaigre's signature style transports readers inside his world through more than six hundred photographs.

This highly anticipated reissue of the late design master Christian Liaigre's final book features twelve of his projects from around the world, including private and public interiors from Nantucket to Malibu, from Athens to Seoul, and from the Caribbean to London. Readers will be immersed in Liaigre's rarefied world, encompassing the full range of his talents in furniture and interior design where nothing is left to chance, from the positioning of the windows to the shape of the door handles.

Timelessness, tranquil beauty, and subtle luxury were Liaigre's signature, and he built his reputation on the refined quality of his furniture and interiors. With a keen sensibility for space and light, design inspiration drawn from local cultures and traditions, meticulous attention given to the sourcing of materials, and an affinity for artisanal work, Liaigre combines the art of understatement with great elegance, discretion, and balance.

The large-format volume offers rich inspiration for professional architects, interior designers, and aficionados alike.

Review Quotes

"If I had to choose one project from Liaigre that really made an impact on me, it would definitely have to be the 12 Projects book from Flammarion because really when it did come out 10 years ago it was like a thunderbolt of great design and people have been admiring that book and copying from it ever since."
--Dan Rubinstein, design journalist and host of The Grand Tourist podcast
