From the sublimely saturated interiors of Santiago-based firm, Grisanti & Cussen and the bold modernism of Milan-based Luca Guadagnini (the designer/director of Call Me By Your Name), to the lush, cinematic designs of London and Hong-Kong-based Joyce Wang and the clean-lined minimalism of Washington D.C.-based Darryl Carter, By Design is truly international in scope—showcasing vibrant and diverse approaches to contemporary design from 30 different countries. Readers will find an inspired mix of styles, scales, philosophies and locations, all of which speak to the ways contemporary designers continue to move the conversation forward around what constitutes great design.
