This leading expert in the field of furniture restoration presents essential information on the provenance and history of furniture, and how to restore, update and care for it.

<div>A Wall Street Journal Top 10 Crucial Home &amp; Design Book for Beginners &nbsp; A Library Journal Best Book of the Year &nbsp; An Amazon Best Book of the Month Christophe Pourny learned the art of furniture restoration in his father’s atelier in the South of France. In this, his first book, he teaches readers everything they need to know about the provenance and history of furniture, as well as how to restore, update, and care for their furniture—from antiques to midcentury pieces, family heirlooms or funky flea-market finds. The heart of the book is an overview of Pourny’s favorite techniques—ceruse, vernis anglais,and water gilding, among many others—with full-color step-by-step photographs to ensure that readers can easily replicate each refinishing technique at home. Pourny brings these techniques to life with a chapter devoted to real-world refinishing projects, from a veneered table to an ebonized desk, a gilt frame to a painted northern European hutch. Rounding out this comprehensive guide is care and maintenance information, including how to properly clean leather, polish hardware, fix a broken leg, and replace felt pads, as well as recipes to make your own wax, shellac, varnish, stain, and more.</div>

Applied Virtuality Book Series

Was ist Architektur, wenn Computer sie neu definieren? Zwei Bücher erkunden Eigenschaft und Potenzial der Architektur im Zeitalter der Künstlichen Intelligenz. Inspiriert vom Architekten Fritz Haller (1924-2012), befragt ihn eine virtuelle Persona über die Architektur der Zukunft. Das erste Buch vernetzt mithilfe von Künstlicher Intelligenz das Internet der Dinge zu einer neuen Architektur. Das zweite präsentiert sechs Werke von Fritz Haller im multidisziplinären Licht der 2020er und zeigt sie wie Ikonen, die schon beinhalten, was erst später gedacht wurde. Die beiden Bände verstehen sich weder als historisch noch analytisch - sie sind visionär und projektiv und stellen in gewisser Hinsicht ein Experiment in sich dar. Sie zeigen eine Architektur, die neu denkt und nicht bewertet. <ul> <li>Ein Experiment zum 100. Geburtstag von Fritz Haller, dem Wegbereiter der integralen Planung </li> <li>Was würde Fritz Haller heute zur Architektur der Zukunft sagen? </li> <li>Band 24 der Reihe Applied Virtualiy Book Series (2 Bände, nur gemeinsam erhältlich) </li></ul>

JOINTING THINGS - ON FRITZ HALLER (2 Vols.)

Based on the hugely popular blog, magazine, and Instagram account of the same name, The Bible of British Taste explores the meaning of traditional British style. Rejecting the pristine and predictable in favour of the lived-in and characterful, this is an aesthetic created from art, antiques, the reused, found and hand-made and the layers of history laid down by generations of home makers. &nbsp;As author Ruth Guilding puts it: ‘My personal mantra for the descriptions of people and their houses in this book roughly seems to be that old stuff is good, and perfection is boring.'Taking her contexts from William Morris, the Bloomsbury set and today’s leading artistic makers and innovators, Guilding explores the meaning of ‘home’ and our everlasting preoccupation with domestic taste, self-presentation and decorating styles, &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;With hundreds of images of remarkable gardens and interiors, domestic icons and folk art narratives, and featuring renowned tastemakers– from Sir Roy Strong and Jasper Conran to Luke Edward Hall, Bridget Elworthy of the Land Gardeners and Ben Pentreath – The Bible of British Taste shines a new light on the quirky charms of unconventional British style.With unrivalled access to some of Britain’s most extraordinary homes, this is the definitive guide to the nation’s most distinctive interiors – a book that belongs on every design lover’s shelf.&nbsp;

Inspired by the hugely popular Bible of British Taste blog and Instagram, this book takes readers inside Britain?s most fascinating homes ? charming, eclectic, and full of character. A must-have for design lovers, Bible of British Taste celebrates the effortless, unstudied style that sets British interiors apart.?

A PBS Great American Read Top 100 Pick"Moby-Dick is a book you come back to, again and again, to find new treasures and delights, a storehouse of language, incident and strange wisdom." - The GuardianIn celebration of the 250th anniversary of the United States, HarperCollins is proud to present this library of American classics drawn from our storied catalog. Moby Dick is the extraordinary story of Captain Ahab's all-consuming hunt for the leviathan Moby Dick, an epic tale of adventure, free will, and man vs. nature, beginning with one of the most memorable opening lines in literary history: "Call me Ishmael."Thus begins a famous journey-the voyage of the whaling ship Pequod and its embattled, monomaniacal Captain Ahab. Ishmael quickly learns that the Pequod's captain sails for revenge against the elusive Moby Dick, a sperm whale with a snow-white hump and mottled skin that destroyed Ahab's former vessel and left him crippled. As the Pequod sails deeper through the nights and into the sea, the divisions between man and nature begin to blur-so do the lines between good and evil, as the fates of the ship's crewmen become increasingly unclear....Melville's classic tale of obsession and the sea, one of the most important and enduring masterworks of nineteenth-century literature is a riveting drama, exploring rage, hope, destiny, and the deepest questions of moral truth.<ul> <li>A BEAUTIFUL PACKAGE WITH FLAPS: Featuring French flaps and a unique vivid cover design, each book in the collection is published as a deluxe trade paperback that is a part of a stunning series look.</li> <li>HARPER COLLINS AMERICAN CLASSICS: This series includes timeless novels, poetry, children's books, and groundbreaking nonfiction that has shaped American thought, literature, and identity across generations.</li> <li>AMERICA'S PUBLISHER: Since its founding in 1817, no American publisher has been so entwined in the history of American letters. Our books enrich, challenge, and defined the American spirit.</li> <li>AMERICA 250: The HarperCollins American Classics arrive in time for America's 250th anniversary celebrations. </li></ul>

WINNER OF THE INDIE BOOK AWARD 2025 FOR NON-FICTION SHORTLISTED FOR THE WAINWRIGHT PRIZE FOR NATURE WRITING A NEW YORKER BEST BOOK OF 2024 'Robinson's prose is humorous and macho, taking its lead from the gruff, sensual delivery of food writer Anthony Bourdain' FINANCIAL TIMES 'A debut that's both a paean to the art of woodworking and a memoir about creative endeavours' OBSERVER 'Mesmeric' SPECTATOR 'Robinson's chiselled, elegant prose is the sound of a bright new voice in non-fiction.' SOPHY ROBERTS, author of A Training School for Elephants and Lost Pianos of Siberia 'A beautifully cut and crafted masterpiece inlaid with insight and polished with the pure joy of nature.' CHRIS PACKHAM, author of Fingers in the Sparkle Jar: A Memoir 'Original. Rare. As beautiful as trees... A masterpiece.' JOHN LEWIS-STEMPEL, author of Meadowland, The Running Hare and The Wood ''What a joy this is. I love the epic quest-ness of it, the wry humour, total graft, risk-taking and downright scariness of Callum's bold adventure. Utterly life-affirming.' MEL GIEDROYC 'A delightful book about the art of craft; a hard-carved woodworking romance written with tenderness and an almost sensual attention to detail. I can smell the resin and the soft, fresh sawdust. I can feel the bite of dense grain beneath the blade. Quite magical.' CAL FLYN, author of Islands of Abandonment ......................................................................................................... Ingrained is a love letter to trees, timber and craftsmanship - and to finding your own voice. The eldest son of a Master Woodworker, Callum Robinson spent his childhood surrounded by wood and trees, absorbing craft lessons in his father's workshop, playing amongst the sycamore, oak and Scots pine that bordered his home. In time he became his father's apprentice, helping to create exquisite bespoke objects. But eventually the need to find his own path led him to establish his own workshop; to chase ever bigger and more commercial projects, to business meetings, bright lights and bureaucracy, to lose touch with his roots. Until the devastating loss of one major job threatened to bring it all crashing down. Faced with the end of his business, his team and everything he had worked so hard to build, he was forced to question what mattered most. Blending memoir and nature writing at its finest, Ingrained is an uplifting meditation on the joys and challenges of working with your hands in our modern age, on inheritance, community, and the beauty of the natural world.

Bernerd’s interior design is highly regarded for her bold and contemporary approach&nbsp;to luxury, and in this second Rizzoli volume of her work, she draws on travel as her principal inspiration in designing one-of-a-kind spaces that exude sophistication and coziness in equal measure. Bernerd is known for creating interiors that have a very special sense of place. Firm in her belief that “good design transports us without us being entirely conscious of the fact,” she aspires to take us out of the day-to-day to places we don’t want to leave and give us the desire to bring a piece of that back home. Committed to the utility of good design, Bernerd works on an increasingly global platform with projects around the world. Hailed by the Financial Times for combining “impeccable craftmanship and timeless style,” her keen eye for composition and detailing and remarkable flair for color and texture make her one of the most sought-after interior designers in the world. Renowned for her insight on the allure of the exotic, the designer invites the reader to apply lessons from their own wanderings. She utilizes her sophisticated eye for detail, carefully selecting books, candles, glassware, and trays in order to enhance every element of design. Beautifully illustrated with stunning images of Bernerd’s latest projects, a lifetime of learning and collaborating is employed to great effect in the sun-dappled rooms of a summer home in Ibiza, and in a resort in the Riviera Maya that combines vernacular architecture with modern amenity in an elegant and thoughtful way. This luxurious volume celebrates the breadth of Bernerd’s ambition “to create meaningful, timeless, and seductive spaces that will linger in someone’s mind and heart.”
