Ritz-Carlton Magazine - Winter 2012 - (Page 38)

THE ILLUMINATI The lighting from the ’20s through the ’50s looks so contemporary today, and instantly makes a traditional room interesting. FLOOR LAMP BY OSCAR TORLASCO FOR LUMI, ITALY C. 1955, ENAMELED STEEL AND BRASS, $12,000, GOODDESIGNSHOP.COM “TRIUMPH OF GALATEA” BY CY TWOMBLY, THE MENIL COLLECTION, HOUSTON EXHIBITIONISTIC This encyclopedia of the 1925 Paris Exhibitions is important for any designer. I bought mine 20 years ago and reference it all the time. ARTS DECORATIFS & INDUSTRIELS MODERNES ENCYCLOPEDIA SET BUILDING BLOCKS Joel Shapiro is a very good friend of mine. I have several of his pieces — I love his work, period. UNTITLED BRONZE SCULPTURE BY JOEL SHAPIRO, NELSONATKINS MUSEUM OF ART, KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI INTERIOR DESIGNER ROSE TARLOW SHARES HER LIFELONG ROMANCE WITH THE SCULPTURAL GEOMETRIES OF THE FIRST HALF OF THE 20TH CENTURY SHAPESHIFTING I love the work from this period — its playfulness, its strength, its constructedness. “SUPREMUS NO. 56” BY KAZIMIR MALEVICH, STATE RUSSIAN MUSEUM, ST. PETERSBURG MODERN LOVE STYLISH MUSE Whenever I feel stuck, I pick up this book. French designer Andrée Putman is an icon — very spare, with a special flair. “PUTMAN STYLE” BY STEPHANE GERSCHEL , $ 45, ASSOULINE.COM ALL IN THE FAMILY These chairs by Le Corbusier’s cousin, Pierre Jeanneret, use to be impossible to find, but they’ve been surfacing more frequently recently. “COMMIT TEE” ARMCHAIRS; TEAK AND LEATHER DOWN TO THE WIRE I bought a pair of these eons ago at the Paris flea market for very little. Nowadays, when I see them being sold for very much, it makes me very happy. “BEAUBOURG” CHAIRS BY MICHEL CADESTIN & GEORGE LAURENT 38 FOREST MIRAGE This is one of my favorite houses. It looks as if it were dropped from the sky, rather than built. THE DOUGLAS HOUSE, BY RICHARD MEIER W W W. R I T Z C A R LT O N . C O M CY TWOMBLY: HICKEY-ROBERTSON, HOUSTON/CY TWOMBLY GALLERY, THE MENIL COLLECTION, HOUSTON; ARTS DECORATIFS: CHRISTIE’S IMAGES LTD. 2011; JOEL SHAPIRO: © 2011 JOEL SHAPIRO / ARTISTS RIGHTS SOCIETY (ARS), NEW YORK; COMMITTEE ARMCHAIRS: COURTESY OF PHILLIPS DE PURY & COMPANY; KAZIMIR MALEVICH: SCALA / ART RESOURCE, NY; BEAUBORG CHAIRS: COURTESY OF WRIGHT; DOUGLAS HOUSE: SCOTT FRANCES/OTTOARCHIVE.COM DESIGN ABSTRACT LESSON There’s something so peaceful and relaxing about Cy Twombly’s work. You can put it in any room — it emanates a specific kind of timelessness. http://www.GOODDESIGNSHOP.COM http://www.ASSOULINE.COM http://WWW.RITZCARLTON.COM
