Synopsis
In a world where over-the-top accessorizing and conspicuous luxury get all the attention, Tom Scheerer has cultivated his own, more restrained brand of chic, a look he modestly describes as "cheerful" and "no nonsense." In New York apartments, Brooklyn brownstones, Bahamian country clubs, and Maine summer houses, Scheerer has created rooms that are crisp and confident, but also visually enthralling. The magic is in the way Scheerer combines classic, old-fashioned decorating with modernist touches la Albert Hadley and Billy Baldwin, but with a keener attention to natural materials, unpretentious vernacular crafts, and the prettiest color combinations this side of India. He cherishes the simplest, least manipulated fabrics--cottons, linens, dimities, even candlewicking--and loves certain inexpensive accents as much as he does truly fine ones. All this adds up to fresh, relaxed interiors that look like no others. Exquisitely photographed, this first book of Scheerer's work perfectly illustrates what makes that work so unforgettable. Praise for Tom Scheerer Decorates "The time has come...for a book. Unlike some who shall not be named, Scheerer richly deserves one, and Tom Scheerer Decorates is a highly personal exploration of the vanishing art of great American design, as pioneered by Van Day Truex, Billy Baldwin, and Albert Hadley.... Tom Scheerer Decorates ] will undoubtedly cement Scheerer's reputation as one of the true American greats." -- New York Times "There is something undeniably sunny about Tom Scheerer's] work. . . . But Scheerer's exuberance is always cut with a hearty dose of Yankee restraint and practicality. It adds up to inspiring rooms that are comfortable, modern, and unpretentious." -- Elle D cor "I am mesmerized by the serene crisp nature of Tom Scheerer's exacting work. If there were a Tom Scheerer Design School, I would be a charter member." -- Stylebeat "In a world that constantly celebrates bigger and better, Scheerer's particular brand of understated, under decorated design is like a refreshing Bahamian breeze. And Mimi Read has so perfectly captured his spirit and process. Like Scheerer's work, the book has an easy-going "vibrant optimism." You'll want to live in its pages."-- Quintessence "This is definitely going to be one of those iconic books you're going to see in everyone's home. Not just because it is total coffee table candy with the dust jacket off, but it's also packed full of gorgeous pictures."-- The Aestate " Tom Scheerer Decorates , written by Mimi Read, is a testament to understated decorating--a modest restrained chic described by the decorator himself as, 'no nonsense.' Scheerer's design aesthetic is a breath of fresh air. . . . the photographer Francesco Lagnese takes pictures you could drink in like a full-bodied wine." -- Examiner.com "I urge you to buy Tom Scheerer Decorates and delve into Scheerer's restrained brand of chic. . . . Enjoy the magic in every beautiful room where Scheerer combines classic, old fashioned decorating with modern touches."-- Hadley Court "I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book and learning more about one of my all time Design Crushes . . . And I am stoked to have a big beautiful coffee table book full of his amazing interiors at my fingertips to look to next time I need a little design inspiration."-- Eclectic "In keeping with Scheerer's personal style, the book is unpretentious, straightforward, contains a smattering of his pet peeves and exhibits just a touch of dry humor. The reader learns about his background (which so clearly informs his aesthetic) and then is skillfully led by Mimi] Read through a broad range of projects from Maine to Paris, with frequent stops down in the islands too."-- Style Court "Scheerer combines classic decorating with modernist touches which is how we all really live today. Get the, In an age in which houses exhibiting unchecked exuberance, high drama or conspicuous luxury get all the attention, leading interior designer Tom Scheerer has cultivated his own more restrained brand of chic, a look he modestly describes as 'cheerful' and 'no nonsense'. But it is so much more. In New York apartments, Brooklyn brownstones, Bahamian country clubs, and Maine summer houses, Scheerer has created rooms that are crisp, confident, classic and unfailingly correct but also visually enthralling. His sophistication is extreme, but it is accessible, relaxed, and a touch 'under baked', as Scheerer says, because he thinks the smartest rooms are always a little under-decorated. The magic is in the way Scheerer combines classic, old-fashioned decorating with modernist touches à la Albert Hadley and Billy Baldwin, but with a keener attention to natural materials, unpretentious vernacular crafts, and the prettiest colour combinations this side of India. He cherishes the simplest, least manipulated fabrics - cottons, linens, dimities, even candlewicking - and loves certain inexpensive accents as much as he does truly fine ones. All this adds up to fresh, relaxed interiors that look like no others. Exquisitely photographed, this is the first book of Scheerer's work, and it's a must for all lovers of interior design.

    Item arrived as described. Seller took great care to ensure packaging was sufficient to protect hard covers in shipping. Greatly appreciate their flexibility with accepting my offers. Books condition, value and quality are all excellent. Seller assured cancelation and refund but had to contact back because they continued to process and NOT refund or cancel.

    I'm sorry, but there was no mention of a cancellation and refund. You were sent the five like new books at the prices we agreed to so this has got to be a mistake. Thanks and take care.

    I apologize. Per our messages I am adding a comment to clarify that everything pertaining to cancellation was not relevant to this order. The order was packaged with extreme care and the item arrived in impeccable condition. I greatly appreciate the care given and will definitely purchase again. Seller was great with communication and responded to offers and messages promptly.

    Can’t leave negative feedback for this seller for some odd reason;Don’t like to leave a negative review nor wasn’t going to until seller insisted I do;He got all bent out of shape when I reminded him to ship card after 4 days of payment sent;Seller has wrong attitude;Blames everyone else including me for his carelessness;He says this happens all the time but still blames everyone else;DON’T SELL ON EBAY IF YOU CAN’T SHIP ON TIME & TREAT YOUR CUSTOMERS LIKE THIS!!

    Thank you for your kind words. Apparently, because you have a tendency to leave negative feedback and shred every seller on here, jordanseveryday, eBay has limited your ability to disparage sellers anymore. When you bought this card on 4/15 eBay gave you a delivery date of 4/24 (arriving early, by the way) so I have no clue why you are this angry. If you are a buyer looking to do business with us, please contact me for a copy of this buyer's messages and you will see true lunacy.

    As described (like new). Shipped in padded envelope. Seller thoughtfully added bubble-wrap to DVD case interior to keep disks in position. Fast communication. Thank you!
