Noel Jeffrey has been an interior designer for more than forty years, and he is known for his eclectic breadth of styles—from eighteenth-century neoclassical to English Traditional, Mission, Art Deco, and modern. Noel Jeffrey: Design is a beautiful, inspiring volume that features stunning homes, apartments, and showhouses created by one of America's leading interior designers. Jeffrey's unique ability to complement architectural features with tasteful furnishings, daring color, and unusual juxtapositions has made him the designer of choice among a noteworthy clientele who appreciate his inventive approach to creating elegant, comfortable spaces.

“Built-in seating, wraparound walls, and carpeted platforms combined to create interiors with the splendor and allure of luxury liners,” noted design historian Judith Gura of Jeffrey's early work. “Color palettes that were most often neutral with soft fabrics and clean, minimal window treatments were a flattering background for dramatic artworks and accent pieces.” Over the course of the following decades, many of these design strategies continued to evolve into a more eclectic approach, eventually transforming into a relaxed traditional style with contemporary accents, and all three modes of design are fully represented in Noel Jeffrey: Design.

Noel Jeffrey: Design chronicles the entire scope of this master designer's career, from the early 1970s to today, and each home featured in this volume is explored room to room, providing an expert's point of view and approach to interior design. Noel Jeffrey: Design reveals Jeffrey's ingenious process through gorgeous four-color photographs, detailed captions, and informative floor plans. Noel Jeffrey: Design offers not only an overview of one master designer's oeuvre but also of the development of late-twentieth- and early-twenty-first century interior design.
