It takes readers through four dazzling interiors designed by Hoffmann and furnished with his signature pieces, including furniture, wall and floor coverings, textiles, lighting, ceramics, glassware and metalwork.

The challenge of furnishing the house inspired Morris and his Pre-Raphaelite friends to found the design firm of Morris & Co., which was the flagship for what was to become the Arts & Crafts movement. Red House captured Morris’ heart. Because of its illustrious first owner, Red House was never forgotten, and a succession of tenants kept Morris’ spirit alive in the house; in 2003, Red House was acquired for the National Trust.

Summary:
Comme tous les grands inventeurs de formes, Piero Fornasetti a fini par disparaître derrière celles qu'il avait inventées. Figure essentielle des années cinquante, on lui doit (en particulier au cours d'une fructueuse collaboration avec Gio Ponti) quelques-uns des meubles et objets les plus caractéristiques de cette période, inlassablement reproduits dans les histoires du design et les magazines de décoration. Par-delà même ces réussites incomparables, Fornasetti fut une personnalité versatile, à la tête d'une œuvre multiforme, embrassant aussi bien l'art graphique que la verrerie, la porcelaine que le tissu, la gravure que le théâtre, le mobilier que la peinture. Travailleur acharné, il poursuivit souverainement, entre 1935 et 1988, une recherche obstinée, se créant une mythologie personnelle, un monde imaginaire dont il ne cessa, un peu comme Jean Cocteau, de varier les éléments. C'est à ce monde totalement méconnu qu'ouvre le présent ouvrage. Conçu en collaboration avec l'artiste peu avant sa disparition, il embrasse en une série d'étonnants documents et de superbes illustrations tous les aspects d'une œuvre aussi prolifique que méconnue. Alors que l'on redécouvre les uns après les autres tous les créateurs du " style cinquante ", il rend justice à l'un des plus riches d'entre eux, créateur d'espaces excentriques, d'images envoûtantes et seul, disait Gio Ponti, à " savoir faire parler les objets ".
