Vicky Lowry

In Tailored Interiors, the follow up to Storied Interiors (2018), interior designer Patrick Sutton presents seven beautiful and bespoke residences that have been specially crafted for his clients and their lives. Taking a deep dive into Sutton’s distinctive approach to design, acclaimed author Vicky Lowry tells the story of each home and how listening to his clients has inherently shaped the design. The seven residences, located in Delaware, Maryland, Washington, D.C., and Wyoming, run the gamut from a crisply furnished, minimalist countryside retreat and a classic yet contemporary seaside estate, to a historic house given new life with striking furnishings and seductive colours, and a property in Jackson Hole with a pared-down aesthetic rather than the typical trappings of the American West. While Sutton’s objectives for every project are similar—discovering the “story” to help him craft a home that is influenced by the location, history, and his clients—he is adept at working in a variety of styles, with an approach that remains fluid and open-minded. Each project in Tailored Interiors is illustrated with gorgeous photography and accompanied by a narrative about the client, their aspirations, and Sutton’s compassionate approach to the design. It is through vision and empathy that Sutton creates such rich, meaningful, and liveable interiors and helps his clients achieve their dreams.

As featured in Bookforum, ELLE Decor, and Interior Design MagazineThe first and only monograph on the life and work of the iconic Danish-American mid-century furniture designer Jens Risom – an unsung hero of Mid-Century Modern designJens Risom, a key figure in mid-century modern design, was one of the first designers to introduce Scandinavian design to the United States and his highly collectible original work is currently selling for large sums at auction. In 1942, Risom’s designs formed the majority of the inaugural collection of original furniture for the iconic Hans Knoll Furniture Company and many of his key pieces are still in production today, by leading manufacturers including Knoll, Design Within Reach, De Padova, Camira, and Ralph Pucci. This, the first authoritative biography of Risom, spans his education in Denmark, early collaborations with Georg Jensen and Hans Knoll, the creation of his own company – Jen Risom Design – his celebrated prefab house on Block Island, RI, as well as his legacy and presence in the 21st century. With unique access to a plethora of never-before-seen sketches, photographs and ephemera, this book proves, as the immortal slogan in his iconic ad campaign shot by Richard Avedon tells us, ‘The answer is Risom’.
