Stunning and inspirational French-style interiors and chic decor from Carolyn Westbrook.
Master the art of creating sleek, elegant and chic French interiors with renowned author and designer Carolyn Westbrook.
Learn how to master the art of creating simple, elegant and chic French interiors with Carolyn Westbrook's The French-Inspired Home. Carolyn Westbrook is a designer and decorator whose love affair with French styling began long before she ever travelled to France. Growing up in the US, her Southern heritage was infused with French influences from the chic elegance of New Orleans to the romance of southern plantation houses. Carolyn's subsequent journeys to France have only fuelled her passion for French interiors and have influenced her designs and interiors ever since. "The French Inspired" has become her own signature style. Carolyn's stunning plantation house, a sleek urban apartment and a classically elegant town house showcase a variety of distinct styles that will leave you enamoured with all that is French. Whether she has used a distressed and gilded mirror that oozes elegance, or a faded and frayed rug that exudes rustic charm, all of these ideas are essentially "French" in their inspiration. Carolyn Westbrook prides herself on these classic and timeless French-inspired interiors and rather than reflecting the latest trends, she hopes they inspire longevity and a true romance with your own home. The French have mastered the art of this time-worn, yet sophisticated, style of living, and you too will fall in love with the colours, the textures and the inspiration that is truly French
Franzosen haben eine besondere Liebe fürs Detail und eine ausgeprägte Wertschätzung des Antiken. Genau das sind Carolyn Westbrooks größte Inspirationsquellen bei ihrer Arbeit als Designerin und Dekorateurin. Alte, edle Möbel, nostalgische Tropfen-Kandelaber, flauschige Handtücher mit Monogrammen, glitzernde Kristallvasen, Stoffe unterschiedlichster Textur, reich verzierte Spiegel und verspielte Accessoires kombiniert sie zu zauberhaften, romantischen Arrangements, die zum Träumen verführen. Klassisch und zeitlos folgen sie nicht den neuesten Trends, sondern stehen für Beständigkeit und Eleganz. Lassen Sie sich auf eine französische Romanze ein!
