The subject which we have here treated is a sort of figurative battle-field; where fierce contests have for ages been from time to time waged; and; notwithstanding the determined assaults of the attacking hosts; the contention and its cause remain pretty much as they were at the commencement of the war. We in the matter remain strictly neutral; merely performing the part of the publics "own correspondent;" making it our duty to gather together such extracts from despatches; both ancient and modern; as may prove interesting or important; to take note of the vicissitudes of war; mark its various phases; and; in fine; to do our best to lay clearly before our readers the historical factsmdash;experiences and argumentsmdash;relating to the much-discussed "Corset question."

MODERNIST PERFECTIONBy c.vanderklootThe world seen in MR Architecture + Decor is one akin to dreams. Modern minimalists to the core. each home designed by MR Architecture feels like a spacious. airy. painstakingly curated and well-loved space. From classic 19th century townhouses to country retreats. island beach escapes to multi-stories with sweeping views and glass walls. there is something that is certain to appeal to everyone.I found myself pining to set foot and transport myself into more than one of these glamorous settings. The multi-layered approach of finishes. furniture and art work is well thought out and the emphasis on light is abundantly clear.If youre looking for inspiration or to be a voyeur unto exclusive settings or for a gift that will resonate with architects. designers. fashionistas or home and design aficionados. I cant think of a more perfect selection than whats found here.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Beautiful. but with substanceBy C FordPurely from an aesthetic standpoint. this book is gorgeous. Not only is the book design itself stylish. but the staging and quality of the photographs are beautiful. On the other side. MR Architecturersquo;s understanding of its clientsrsquo; desires is showcased continuously throughout this book. Irsquo;d guess that it is this ability to listen and form real relationships with clients that drives such wonderful work. and I appreciated that they chose to give the clients a voice within the book descriptions as well.As someone who enjoys seeing and reading about design but with no actual experience in it. this was an enjoyable. educational. and even inspiring book choice. I would recommend. whether you are looking for design inspiration or want an inside look into the architecture and design industries.
