THE NEW MODERNS

    This book presents the work and philosophy of the newest wave of international architects and interior designers of the 1990s, distinguished by their light, uncluttered and spacious approach. As well as taking the reader inside custom-designed homes throughout the world, many of them hitherto unseen, it shows how the New Modern look can be achieved on a limited budget and with limited space, showing which furnishings and fittings complement the style, and including a comprehensive directory of sources and designers.
