Editorial Reviews: Product Description In House celebrates some of the world’s most striking and eccentric rooms, beautifully captured by Derry Moore, the 12th Earl of Drogheda and a regular contributor to Architectural Digest and Nest magazines, who for nearly thirty-five years has inimitably photographed unique, style-setting houses. Richly diverse in style and period, what these extraordinary interiors share is an eccentricity and a commitment to decorative aesthetics that has singled them out in the eyes of the world’s most discerning arbiters of taste. From an airy and colorful Moroccan palace to an austere but whimsical Scottish castle; from an Art Deco masterpiece in Jodhpur to Alphonse Mucha’s cluttered apartment in Prague; and from the museumlike home of one of London’s most macabre collectors to the extravagant remnants of Madrid’s aristocratic heritage, Moore reveals his impeccable taste and unrivaled eye for light in some of the most surprising and original rooms in the world. Each of the houses is accompanied by a commentary by noted architecture and interior design writer Mitchell Owens, and each is uniquely laid out in sympathy with its character by award-winning graphic designer Jonathan Barnbrook. Together, their vision has produced a testament both to extraordinary interior design and to the unique eye of a master of interior photography.

Customer Reviews: Another beautiful picture book... November 15, 2009 elle-mnop (Land of 10,000 Lakes) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful If you are into grand castles and that European palace look, this book is for you! I bought it not because I was looking for design ideas for my own home, but I was looking for period-style ideas for my dollhouse! Personally, I can't imagine my own 1700 square foot house could ever look like any of these, nor could I imagine living in the majority of them myself, but it's nice to dream! (Perhaps I will come back in my next life as a baroness!) ;) The photography is absolutely as beautifully crafted as the homes within. And if you are inspired by an aristocratic old-world money style, you should be very happy with this book. The homes are introduced with a summary of the history of the house itself, and I did find it interesting to read. Overall, I would buy this book again. It does have a way of transporting you.
