Description
As a curator who discovers exquisite treasures all over the world for her projects and her Dallas-based design store Ceylon et Cie, Michelle Nussbaumer has a signature style, in multilayered rooms that mix periods with antique textiles, embroideries and weavings, unconventional furniture, and global art. The result is unique interiors that might recall 1940s glamour or nineteenth-century England. Her first book, organized by mood and style, show- cases interiors that range from calm to bold, and from rustic to exotic. These include Nussbaumer's own stunning residences in Switzerland and Texas, as well as her work for clients around the country. Her sumptuous interiors-eclectic in style and influenced by the designer's travels from Paris and Rome to Africa, Mexico, and China-provide alluring inspiration for design aficionados.

"Peter Hutton Wilkinson, who penned the foreword in Michelle Nussbaumer's premier tome, Wanderlust: Interiors that Bring the World Home (Rizzoli), the eccentric, well-traveled interior designer is 'a dream catcher, a three-dimensional storyteller, a seductive sorceress whose enchanted vision must be obeyed.'"
