DESCRIPTION:
A city of great art and dazzling architecture, Paris is admired, envied and imitated by half the world. Printed in full color throughout, Paris Flea Market examines, celebrates and defines a particular "ethnic" or "urban" tradition through evocative examples of houses, apartments, public spaces and indigenous products. 150+ photos.
A Customer said Gorgeous french interiors. This softcover is full of gorgeous home furnishings sourced from flea markets presumably from France. It is more of a pictorial study of lovely furniture, room layouts, antique details, drapery and linens rather than a 'how to guide' to furnishing a home in this style - it is provides some inspirational ideas for decorating and thoughts on furnishings and color combinations - although some furnishings and abodes are a little out of reach for most of us (the essential paris apartment with french doors, parqued floors and mammoth marble busts) it is fabulous to look at it and is a nice coffee table addition. Enjoy.. Kathryn Loveless said What's in a name. Nice book, but was a bit disappointed.. A Customer said A Special Retreat. As a collector of decorating books, I found this fresh and exciting! Although I can't afford a giant plaster head, the use of color, objets d'art, antiques and everday found objects lends itself to immediate inspiration. Tres European, tres chic! My favorite section is the apartment left untouched by the "A Special Retreat" according to A Customer. As a collector of decorating books, I found this fresh and exciting!

My favorite section is the apartment left untouched by the 2oth c. It is so rare to catch a glimpse of an actual abode left intact from so long ago. Inspiration can be taken from many different sources such as a unique fabric, even something as mundane as peice of cardboard. This book is a treat creatively and visually. Highly recommended.. oth c. It is so rare to catch a glimpse of an actual abode left intact from so long ago.
