Glamour at Home is an inspirational design primer from Nancy Corzine, a celebrated and respected name in the fields of furnishings, textiles, and interior design. Corzine’s interiors reflect an elegant and sophisticated approach to life that conjures up classic Hollywood style. Her assemblages of mirrored vanities, silk-covered chaise lounges, and gold-leaf black lacquer armoires decorated with chinoiserie in gorgeous light-filled rooms are dazzling. To demonstrate the foundations of her design aesthetic, Corzine presents homes in a variety of settings—urban, rural, and coastal—as case studies. The book is divided into entryways, living and dining rooms, libraries and home offices, bedrooms and bathrooms, kitchens, and exterior areas. Sidebars cover such useful topics as choosing furniture or a textile ensemble that is appropriate for a particular style, how to incorporate mirrors to their best advantage to enliven a space, and artful ways to display treasured objects. These elegant and composed indoor and outdoor rooms are timeless.

This review is from: Nancy Corzine: Glamour at Home (Hardcover)
I love this book. Nancy Corzine is well know for her very upscale chic, and in the book she shares her secrets and gives lots of great advice. This book will truly help the designer inside of anyone emerge. The breakout segments such as choosing a sofa are so helpful and this sort of advice is often overlooked in other design books. Nancy Corzine is giving her own "design college" in the pages of Glamour at Home. Take this course! Buy this book.

How to create glamour in your home,
By
This review is from: Nancy Corzine: Glamour at Home (Hardcover)
For those who enjoy that kind of glamour associated with Hollywood or chic New York residences, this book offers insight into the design elements that create it. If you like a cosmopolitan, dressy, formal style that is somehow accessible, warm and welcoming, you'll appreciate this book. The author breaks it down room by room offering tips on everything from lamp silhouettes to sofa styles.
What's interesting about Corzine's rooms, that even though they're elegant, she's not afraid to take risks and have some fun with them. While some fit the profile of traditional elegant decor, others have whimsical touches like hanging beds in a boys room. Some of these rooms show how you can successfully combine classic style with a bit of innovative whimsy which keeps the rooms from being cliched or boring. If you love luxurious glamour in home decor that still looks contemporary, this book shows and tells you the secrets behind doing it successfully based on the author's 20 years as an interior designer and designer of furniture and fabric.

Words cannot express the beauty of Nancy Corzine's glamourous, timeless interiors! Beautifully photographed and a must have ~ even looks great as a cocktail table book.. Designs can be easily recreated without the large price tag of her furniture/ lighting line.
BEAUTIFUL!
