Every Room Tells a Story: Tales from the Pages of Nest Magazine

Every Room Tells a Story: Tales from the Pages of Nest Magazine by Gomes, Reverend Peter. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9781891024283.

Description: Every Room Tells a Story offers the most interesting and provocative interiors published to date in the first 12 issues of the widely acclaimed interiors and design magazine, nest. Called, among other things, "Homes and Gardens for the decadent and deranged" (Wallpaper), the special chemistry of nest brings it all under one roof: not only David Mlinarics interiors for the Rothschild home at Waddesdon Manor, Gabhan OKeeffes redecoration of Sao Schlumbergers Paris apartment, a recreation of Louis Comfort Tiffanys lost designs for the White House Blue Room, but also an Inuit igloo, the tents of Tibetan nomads, a U.S. Navy nuclear submarine, and womens prison cells. And because process is as interesting as result, Editor in Chief and Art Director Joseph Holtzman takes readers behind the scenes and shares the way his unique features are hatched and achieve adulthood. The book includes photography and text by more than 50 of the magazines contributors, as well as examples of specially commissioned design projects: a flipbook by Matt Groening, a flocked wallpaper by Rosemarie Trockel, a chair by Tom Sachs, and a textile by Todd Oldham. Every Room Tells a Story will be a must for all fans of the magazine, and will also introduce its one-of-a-kind sensibility to the uninitiated.
