Summary

As we reach the end of the first decade of the twenty-first century, our passion for retro style shows no signs of fading. From the cerebral elegance of mid-century modern to the flamboyant opulence of the 1970s, retro interiors still have enormous appeal. In Living Retro, Andrew Weaving celebrates retro style in all its guises. It's a multifaceted look embracing many different decorative styles, but it has at itsheart a passion for vintage furniture and an understanding of the very best twentieth-century design. The interiors featured are varied in style, ranging from a slick, minimalist loft in London to an eclectic Parisian home full of found objects and a New York apartment that's a cocktail of color and pattern. These diverse interiors all have one thing in common-they put their own unique spin on retro style.- A welcome successor to the highly acclaimed Modern Retro,also by Andrew Weaving, which has sold more than 70,000 copies.- Sumptuous photography by Andrew Wood.
