World of Private Islands
From the idealism of Moore’s “Utopia” to the ease of Gauguin’s Tahiti, islands fuel the imagination. Indeed, who hasn’t day-dreamed of an unique slice of paradise? Editor Farhad Vladi presents the many types of private islands in this compelling volume, featuring everything from Canadian lake isles to Pacific atolls. Within its chapters you will discover a world of islands with castles as well as properties owned by celebrities like Johnny Depp and Ricard Branson. However, islands are not just for the wealthy; they are as much affordable for those who want to spend less.

Charles Garnier
Dostępność: na zamówienie Charles Garnier (Paris 1825-1898). The eclectism of this French architect enables him to be placed within the Second Imperial style. His works can be considered as archetypal examples of Neo-classical Renaissance and baroque architecture. His greatest undertaking was the Opera House in Paris (1861-1875), highly relevant for the subsequent development of architecture in the nineteenth century. The overall effect is harmonious but different styles and decorations are combined together through sculptures, frescos and marble.
