Charles Faudree Details Hardcover – August 1, 2011

Other design books can offer the broad brush strokes for the larger elements of room design. Charles Faudree Details provides the icing on the cake, the decorating techniques which pull it all together, ties up loose ends, showcases special collections. Charles has a brilliant method of layering in accessories and treasured items which are described and beautifully illustrated here. He tackles various elements in a coordinated approach by highlighting mantels, walls, tablescapes and fabrics. The section on fabrics alone is educational and inspiring. I constantly refer back to this book which can be applied to all decorating styles, not just the country french for which he is well known.

A must for Faudree fans! Like his other books, Details is a visual feast. Faudree was the master of Country French decorating, but his decor went beyond a single style. If you love Tuscan decor, English Country, Traditional, or Cottage, Faudree's work will be an inspiration. I have every one of his books. Details, and Country French Legacy (by Jennifer Jordan, who photographed his homes, and published Legacy after Faudree's death) both currently grace my coffee table. Details is probably his finest work, but is best enjoyed after his other books have laid the groundwork.

I love this latest book!!!! It is even better than the last one by Charles , if that's possible. The book is broken down into topics like Lighting or mantles or tabletops, each is given a section of details and examples of the look you can achieve on your own. I have had neighbors who has seen the book and ordered it and yesterday I had it in a out of town fabric shop buying trim for a chair and two customers got the title to order this for their homes,after peeping in mine! I recommend this latest book highly. It would be a great present, but make sure you order one for yourself because you will not be able to give it away!

This product was better than I expected. In very good condition and came quickly. Seller replied promptly to an inquiry. Highly recommend this seller

I love this book perhaps a bit more than some of the other Faudree books. It gave me lots of ideas on simple ways to try to recreate this genius's personality.

This book makes me aware of Faudree's style of decorating. I can spot it in other decorating books. I like his "style" by "layering" objects of love. He totally disregards the new simplistic, minimal look. I like that. Looking at this books is "eye candy."

Charles Faudree's books are always amazing and Details was no exception!! Wonderfully illustrated, it gives us all examples and great ideasfor creating beautiful French rooms. Sooo glad I ordered it. Well packaged & prompt shipping.

I have always admired the talent of Charles Faudree in his approach to providing clients with beautiful interior environments. This book deals withhis attention to the details that separates the exceptional interior designer from the others.
