Summary:
"The work of London-based, Persian-born interior designer
Alidad
is the realization of a fantasy of splendor in elegant brocade and rich damask.
Alidad
is renowned for creating interiors of comfort made from a warm, glowing elegance with richness, color, and sumptuous materials. The exacting use of intricately patterned antique and modern textiles, upholstered furniture, and a high quality of craftsmanship. His unique aesthetic--a kind of controlled glamour that embraces exotic forms, patterns, and fabrics while at the same time evoking the
timeless
and comforting. A compelling visual survey of his projects, from apartments in London and Paris and villas in Beirut and Kuwait to seaside homes in Sardinia and Cornwall. The work of
Alidad
is a resplendent tapestry, sewn through with color upon color and texture upon texture.
Alidad
's approach to the practical issues of interior decoration, from architectural alteration and furniture design to choosing appropriate textiles -- it serves as an intimate resource and an entry into the secrets of evocative design."--Provided by publisher.
