A veritable pleasure 28 Aug 2010
Format:Hardcover
I bought this book as a present for my wife.She just loves interior design and had dropped some hints over the past couple of months about the book.So i went and got it for her,being the loving husband that i am.Oh boy what beautiful images.I had never heard of the photographer Gilles De Chabaneix but i do now.It is a delight just to browse through this book,it shows what a top photographer can do with ordinary every day environments.A veritable pleasure.

Inspiring: 12 Dec 2007
By Hamilton - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
This is a terrific book, full of all great photographs of beautiful places. Lots of ideas for anyone interested in decorating a room, or designing a home. Too often design books are either too extravagant or feel rather staged in they way a house is photographed. This book finds home -- both fancy and simple -- that are about great taste and they are photographed in a way that is very beautiful, but also real. You know a team of assistants didn't spend the day lighting every surface of the room. A really inspiring book.

This is my city 3 Aug 2010
By Paola V. Faćndez Garcća - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
I really enjoy reading this book, it arrived just before I was leaving to a trip to Bariloche (Argentina). It was a great company near the fire in the beautiful hotel, snowing over the trees. The contrast with its great photographs (of where I belong) was delightful.
It took me a week to go over the pages and it was exactly what I want of a book selected mainly for its tittle.

Very Cool. 31 Mar 2011

Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
I haven't even read any of the text yet - gone through it several times though just looking at the pictures, which are great. Would make a great coffee table book.
