Divinely Decadent by Stephen Calloway
Structured around the themes of the seven deadly sins, pride, covetousness, lust, envy, gluttony, wrath and sloth, Divinely Decadent reveals a lavish collection of wicked home interiors. Discover ostentatious halls and entrances to take pride in, slothful living rooms to lounge in, dining rooms and kitchens for gluttons, libidinous bedrooms, furniture that incites envy, collections to covet and lush materials to arouse the wrath of the puritanical. Revel in the theatrical over-indulgence of some of the world's most gorgeously eccentric homes with rooms and furnishings that are guaranteed to delight, inspire and amuse. A feast for style-conscious maximals, it provides the perfect antithesis to worthy but dull neutrals, contemporary good taste and minimal modern lines. Printed in gold throughout and with over 200 sumptuous, full-colour photographs, Divinely Decadent is the ultimate guide to luxury, extravagance and opulence.
