ALFREDO PAREDES AT HOME Book

Author: Alfredo Paredes, with Brad Goldfarb

This is the very first book from Alfredo Paredes, the interior designer who rose to fame as creative director at Ralph Lauren—the man behind the legendary Polo Bar and the immersive window displays and iconic atmospheres of the Madison Avenue flagship. In this book, he shows us how to recreate his unique, relaxed, yet elegant and comfortable style in our own homes.

By taking us on a tour of four of his own homes, Paredes shares key elements of his creative process and gives us access to the tools he uses to create interiors that, while inspired by the past, retain a decidedly modern feel. He demonstrates how an environment can truly influence our state of mind.

Paredes is known for his ability to create a whole world from a single object: he might, for example, transform the striped pattern of an Oxford shirt into a unique upholstery for a seaside home, or draw inspiration for a sofa fringe from an old leather ranch harness. With his exceptional visual sense, he creates scenes and rooms with a strong, masculine, and sophisticated energy through the use of dark woods, ironwork, rustic fabrics, an overall patina, and soft materials in soothing earth tones.
