Indian style is a beautiful, flamboyant hybrid, blending the influences of many cultures into its decorative schemes. This is the first book to examine the idiosyncrasies of domestic decor in a practical and inspirational way, with unique glimpses into many private homes that reveal the beauty of India from within.
The range of traditional and modern designs in India is famously eclectic, yet the striking interiors all contain a distinctive motif or particular flourish that fixes the style as definitively Indian.
This lavish book explains the origins of the ornamentation and the differences between regional decorative traditions and how they can be emulated in the West. Architectural plans conceive of interiors as symbolic spaces and not only achieve aesthetic beauty but harness natural energies for domestic health, wealth and happiness.
The result is a seductive visual catalogue and a celebration of the author's passion for the vibrant designs of her country.
