A rich visual history celebrating a century of the magazine’s publication, Architectural Digest at 100 presents the best from the pages of the international design authority.
Introduction by Amy Astley, Architectural Digest editor in chief * Foreword by Anna Wintour
“A survey of how Americans have lived—and how American life has changed—over the past 100 years.” —Los Angeles Times
“Celeb Décor to Envy.” —Variety
Architectural Digest’s editors have delved into the archives and culled years of rich material covering a variety of subjects. Ranging freely between present and past, the book features the personal spaces of dozens of private celebrities like Barack and Michelle Obama, David Bowie, Truman Capote, David Hockney, Michael Kors, and Diana Vreeland, and includes the work of top designers and architects like Frank Gehry, David Hicks, India Mahdavi, Peter Marino, John Fowler, Renzo Mongiardino, Oscar Niemeyer, Axel Vervoordt, Frank Lloyd Wright, and Elsie de Wolfe.
Also included are stunning images from the magazine’s history by photographers such as Bill Cunningham, Horst P. Horst, Simon Upton, Francois Dischinger, Francois Halard, Julius Shulman, and Oberto Gili.
“Written in the elevated quality that only the editors of Architectural Digest can master so well, [this] is the world’s newest guide to the best and brightest designs to inspire your next big home project.” —The Editorialist
