European tradition meets California informality and
globe-trekker chicFrom stateside townhomes in New York,
beach houses in the Hamptons and Malibu, and ranch homes in
California to farmhouses in the English countryside and
Southwest France, this collection of Kathryn Ireland's
interiors moves up and down the sliding scale of formality. As Timeless Interiors demonstrates, a Kathryn
Ireland-designed space, no matter how playful and
unorthodox, is always inviting and livable. As her fabric
design business thrived and expanded, so her interior style
began to incorporate elements of from her expansive
travels-paisleys, ikats, and madras- taking on a lively
globe-trekker chic appeal. This mid-career report card showcases rooms and residences
that Kathryn designed last week and as far back as 20 years
ago. Even her earliest installations are aging extremely
well, like a good Bordeaux. Kathryn M. Ireland is among House & Garden's "10 to Watch"
architects and designers expected to influence 21st-century
style. She starred in Bravo TV's Million Dollar Decorator in
2011. She is the author of Summers in France, Creating a
Home and Classic Country. She divides her time between Santa
Monica, California, and Montauban, France.
