And whether Wolf's rooms feature tranquil blues or festive reds, they delicately blend a range of furnishings with exotic figures and foreign crafts recalling his (and often his clients') travel to distant lands.
I have been a fan of Wolf's work for decades and I never tire of his ability to transform even the most mundane spaces into welcoming, nuanced and genuinely thrilling places to live.. That is not the case in this most recent book. There was however very little technical information. It also serves as the most recent testament to his unconventional, but sterling, design compass. 15, 1 paragraph; pg. I have been a big fan of Vicente's ever since the Patino Wolf days. It has become the vanity press for all interior designers who want a book of their work published. Picture after picture, room after room, with nary a word telling you anything about them. nice book with lots of ideas.. His first book was brilliant and put forth his ideas in a comprehensive way.
