Effortless Style: Casa Lopez

Pierre Sauvage's first book introduces his French Bohemian-chic philosophy for living with style through his contemporary interiors-both urban and country-and recipes for elegant entertaining.

Against the backdrop of his exceptional homes in Paris, Normandy, and the South of France, Pierre Sauvage- director of Casa Lopez, the legendary Parisian housewares purveyor-showcases his very personal and contemporary style of decorating and entertaining. His striking use of color sets the tone for each room and serves as a counterpoint to his playful matchings of materials and patterns. With discriminating taste, Sauvage pairs new designs for occasional furniture with singular antiques or hand-painted table settings from Provence and Andalusia with cut crystal decanters.

From bold interiors to elegant gardens and outdoor living spaces, each home is infused with his connoisseur's eye for luxury details. Stunning photography commissioned especially for this book under Sauvage's art direction provides inspiration for creating interiors that exude a charm and elegance that is decidedly contemporary, yet conveys the timeless allure of a home that has been passed down over generations.
