From the Publisher. Katie Ridder’s extraordinary palette of primary and secondary colors, her playful mix of antiques and modern pieces, and her eye for unusual decorative accents have established her as a leading figure in the world of interior design. Clients from Argentina to Yonkers have commissioned Katie Ridder to design the interiors of their lofts, Japanese pavilions, summer houses, and Park Avenue apartments. Now everyone can derive design inspiration from her unique approach—whether it’s something as charmingly simple as a coral finial atop a table lamp or as dramatically daring as intense blue walls stenciled in an oversize paisley motif—on every page of this idea-saturated book.
