Sheer Opulence

Designer to rock stars and royalty Nicholas Haslam bring us his original, glamorous interiors in Sheer Opulence.

Here’s how Haslam describes his approach to decorating:

I grew up thinking of interiors as works of art to be lived in, not bland backgrounds to be taken for granted. I realized that the key to a beautiful room is not so much an inventory of furnishings, but the feeling that the space you are in is thrilling yet harmonious.

This process is clearly evident in the very grand and luxurious homes featured.

In addition to all the beautiful interiors, Haslam tells his own story, lets us in on his decorating secrets and also shares some of his watercolors plans for the spaces he created. All of this makes Sheer Opulence a highly personal book and that just may be what I like most about it.
