Having a nineteenth-century apartment in Paris steps from the Trocadero and Eiffel Tower is a dream. So is owning an eighteenth-century chateau in the French countryside known as the Versailles of the fields. Having both? That s the dreamy escapism found in designer Corrigan s new book, which will enchant Francophiles and design lovers alike with its rich trove of ideas for anyone wanting to decorate in a French-inspired style. In the first section of the book, Corrigan invites readers into his dazzling Paris apartment, walking them through the history of the building and his design plans, from the entryway through the salons, dining room, and bedrooms. In the second part, Corrigan shares his enduring love for French country homes. Traveling through his spectacular new chateau room by room, he tells the story of its purchase, restoration, and decoration. Layered throughout are insights and advice on topics ranging from antiquing in Paris, hanging art in the French style, hosting with panache, and exploring the French countryside. With gorgeous new photography commissioned for the book, this volume is a must for everyone who dreams of living in France and bringing French chic into their own lives.
"Designer Timothy Corrigan’s new book, At Home in France, will satisfy the design senses of any Francophile. The book gives an inside and up-close look at both of Corrigan’s homes in France: a Belle Époque–era apartment in the 16th arrondissement as well as his château in the country. The book, written by former ELLE DECOR editor in chief Michael Boodro, takes readers through every room in each house with no detail overlooked." — Elle Decor
"Timothy Corrigan is, in his own words, “an unabashed Francophile.” We’ve long since admired his French interiors, which honor the long-standing traditions of the country’s rich decorative history. In this volume, the designer reflects deeply on the diverse aesthetics of French urbanity versus rural living." — Architectural Digest
