As we reach the end of the first decade of the twenty-first century, our passion for retro style shows no signs of fading. From the cerebral elegance of mid-century modern to the flamboyant opulence of the 1970s, retro interiors still have enormous appeal. In Living Retro, Andrew Weaving celebrates retro style in all its guises. It’s a multifaceted look embracing many different decorative styles, but it has at its heart a passion for vintage furniture and an understanding of the very best twentieth-century design. The interiors featured are varied in style, ranging from a slick, minimalist loft in London to an eclectic Parisian home full of found objects and a New York apartment that’s a cocktail of color and pattern. These diverse interiors all have one thing in common—they put their own unique spin on retro style. • A welcome successor to the highly acclaimed Modern Retro, also by Andrew Weaving, which has sold more than 70,000 copies. • Sumptuous photography by Andrew Wood.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Living Retro (Hardcover)
I wanted books on mid-century furnishing and decor. A coffee table book.
Amazon not only made it easy but I saved money and got exactly what I was seeking. I had not seen the two books I purchased prior to go on Amazon so I wasn't sure if when I got them they would contain the types of info and illustrations I was hoping for. Perfect choose thanks to the user friendly site. I will order from Amazon again.
