Description
Design icon Vicente Wolf, believes that the classical elements – earth, water, air, and fire – form the basic building blocks of great interior design, and the result is an inspirational guide to designing unforgettable spaces based on the four natural elements.
Through his own breathtaking photography, and engaging narrative, Wolf shares his philosophy of designing around these four fundamental principles in a book divided into sections reflecting the unique qualities of each.
Air showcases projects that contain a lightness of spirit, open in feeling, with a palette that creates an atmosphere without the conventional inside-outside boundaries. Earth features interiors grounded in stone, wood, and natural textures. Water shows restorative spaces swimming in serene shades of blues and aqua, while enlivening rich colors, and dramatic qualities are showcased in Fire. More than a dozen projects are presented in detail including Long Island beach houses, Manhattan apartments, a chalet in the Swiss Alps, a house in Israel, and sumptuous homes from New York and Connecticut, to California. Through this unique concept, Wolf proves why he is an uncontested master of luminous rooms that combine light, texture, strength, fluidity and sensuality.
