Description

Rooms of jewellike colour and glorious pattern. Enchanting lacquered ceilings and geometric floors. Brilliantly massed collections of furniture, objects, and art. Although maximalism has always had a place in interior design practiced by noted decorators such as Dorothy Draper, Sister Parish, and the late Mario Buatta today it is bigger than ever. Thanks to its contemporary practitioners, rooms rich with colour, pattern, and everything else have exploded onto the design scene in recent years. More Is More Is More celebrates the best of this work with page after page of lushly photographed vivid inspiration and ideas. Each of the five chapters in More Is More Is More begins with an essay on a theme colour, pattern, surfaces, elements, and layering followed by dozens of showstopping rooms from acclaimed, award-winning designers, including Ken Fulk, Steven Gambrel, Kelly Behun, Mark D. Sikes, Pierce and Ward, Bunny Williams, Corey Damen Jenkins, and Redd Kaihoi. The images are enhanced by commentary from the designers describing their process for creating the room and offering insight on how to incorporate the ideas at home. With a design as lavishly maximalist as its subject, More Is More Is More is a perfect gift for design fans.

Media Reviews

"The 20 Best Design Books to Pick up This Fall: Textile designer and writer Carl Dellatore dives deep into the world of maximalism with his newest release, More is More is More. Each of the volume's five chapters explores a different facet of maximalist style through vivid imagery and playful commentary from the world's top decorator." —VERANDA

"Brilliantly curated spaces celebrating lavish expression." —PORTRAIT

"Lavish photography is paired with commentary from the designers themselves, and a foreword by Schumacher creative director Dara Caponigro is a cherry on top." —CHAIRISH

"Carl is an amazing icon in our industry who is the author of several design books. He reached out to us when he saw our Wise & Wicked interiors for the Kips Bay Dallas Show House, noting that the way Pulp layered the spaces gave them that lush and maximalist look that he wanted to feature in his newest book." —PULP DESIGN STUDIOS

"In his own inimitable way, Dellatore celebrates the best of lavish maximalist interiors by Bunny Williams, Marjorie Skouras, and Sasha Bikoff, each of whom have collections with us; as well as a number of other tastemakers in our industry." —CURREY & CO.
