Book Reviews of Orlando Diaz-Azcuy
Book Review: A beautiful guide to design and lifestyle
Summary: 5 Stars
Orlando Diaz's breadth of style and creativity really shines through in this beautiful book. As a coffee table book it's beautiful to look at, but it's a wonderful resource for design inspiration and ideas of how to have a beautiful home that you can LIVE in. So many masters of interior designs have books that look beautiful but aren't truly livable spaces. This book shows that across a range of client's individual styles and tastes, Diaz is a master of mixing old and new, color and neutrality, varieties of textures it all comes together to create unique rooms and homes. While the text is often a bit off putting and pretentious, what comes through is the brilliance of Diaz's designs. Each home reflects Diaz' surprises and quirks that make it clear that he doesn't "do" just one look. The book is fabulous resource and a terrific gift for anyone who enjoys design and wants to learn about Diaz's vision.
Summary of Orlando Diaz-Azcuy
San Francisco-based Orlando Diaz-Azcuy?s mastery of the home interior has made him one of America?s most renowned designers. One of the West Coast?s most well-respected and prolific designers, his elegantly composed rooms speak volumes for his spare, intelligent, and disciplined touch. His interiors?located in Miami and New York as well as San Francisco?combine a modernist approach of architecturally clean lines and urbane sensibility with smart flashes of bold color or a pedigreed period statement piece to balance a curated look. Regarded by professionals as a "dean of interior design" and a pioneer of minimalist design since the early 1980s, Diaz-Azcuy has been an epic if under-recognized influence to all those interested in interior architecture and design. With insightful texts on his design methodologies and sensibility, Orlando Diaz-Azcuy stands to be one of the most important interior design monographs of the season.Decorating Books
