The Gilded Room: Decorating With Metallic Effects, from Metal Leaf to Powders, Pastes
and Paints - focuses on metal effects Decorative metallic effects are sleek enough to complement very contemporary interiors, yet luxurious enough for more traditional décor, while distressed or weathered versions work well with the ever-popular shabby chic look. The Gilded Room, metallic finishes can add a wonderful accent to many styles of décor on many surfaces. With gold, silver, and copper leaf, metallic paints and powders, artists' oils, copper wire, wire mesh, and recycled metal plates, Skinner adorns walls, floors, desks, columns, screens, sconces, and much more. Although a few of the techniques can be handled by the novice, most are fairly labor- and materials-intensive, requiring a good deal of preparation and a fair amount of practice. Those who have some previous experience with metal-effect projects should achieve success with excellent step-by-step photos and directions. Art Deco Cut & Use Stencils 51 working stencils based on authentic designs: large and small geometrics; opulent abstract patterns; and stylized women, flowers, and other motifs. The stencils are printed on heavy grade stencil paper. However, the stencils themselves are in black and white to enable you to cut them out easily. The sizes are from 8" to 2". Art Nouveau Cut and Use Stencils This book has some nice, simple patterns, including floral, animal, and geometric designs Art Deco: 1910-1939 Sexy, modern, and unabashedly consumer-oriented, Art Deco was a new kind of style, flourishing at a time of rapid technological change and social upheaval. Lacking the philosophical basis of other European design movements, Deco borrowed motifs from numerous sources - Japan, Africa, ancient Egyptian and Mayan cultures, avant-garde European art - simply to create novel visual effects. Art Deco swept across the globe during the 1920s and 1930s and created the defining look of the interwar years. In an era of contradictions that encompassed both the Roaring Twenties and the Great Depression, it imbued everyday life with elegance and sophistication. It transformed the skylines of cities as diverse as New York and Shanghai and touched the design of everything from Hollywood films to clothing to luxury liners and locomotives. Art Deco was the style of hedonism, of indulgence, and of mass consumption. In the Nouveau Style Scores of photos, sketches and reprints amply show off the Nouveau style in jewelry, furniture, furnishings, art, posters etc. The text gives a good history and background of the style, and shows how it makes it's presence in current culture. This is a great book for artists looking for creative ideas and anyone that appreciates great style Art Deco Textiles Tracing the evolution of Art Deco style, the bold, dramatic, brilliantly colored and patterned fabrics. The age of Art Deco is one of the most innovative and vibrant periods of textile design. Sophisticated and exotic prints dazzled the world and ideas generated by avant-garde artists began to transform fabrics and fashion. The radical innovations in Art Deco fashion and interior decoration demanded new textile designs, and, as the period progressed, fabrics for clothes, upholstery, wallpaper, and rugs increasingly reflected the modernism, elegance, and vibrancy of the movement. As the French artist Raoul Dufy, himself a brilliant fabric designer, wrote, "Paintings have spilled from their frames and stained our dress and our walls." Contemporary Decorating: New Looks for Modern Living This useful book explains how to create a refreshing alternative to outdated period styles and countrified nostalgia. Much more than stark white walls and minimalist decoration, it is about interiors rich with color, texture, and smooth, clean lines. Focusing on the home's principal elements - walls, floors, windows and doors, furniture, storage, and display - Contemporary Decorating offers 14 projects that sample such possibilities as glass brick walls, concrete floors, and metal doors. 200 color photographs are featured.
