Entertaining in town and country is an essential part of the life and work of design gurus Paolo Moschino and Philip Vergeylen. In this lavishly illustrated book, Moschino and Vergeylen guide us through a typical week in their West Sussex and London homes in a lively exploration of design, lifestyle, and inspiration, alongside a look at some recent client projects.
Join two of the world's most renowned decorators, Paolo Moschino and Philip Vergeylen, as they throw open the doors to life in their enchanting renovated home in the English countryside.
'An invitation to spend a week in the company of a pair of renowned interior designers is one few would decline. Such is the appeal of Paolo Moschino and Philip Vergeylen's latest book. The interiors, table settings and recipes might cast one's own hosting in a less than favourable light, but the book is inspirational and, naturally, entertaining.' - House & Garden
When London-based design gurus Paolo Moschino and Philip Vergeylen sought a country house for weekends out of the city, they embarked on an adventure filled with surprises, beauty, and the unexpected. Now, 12 years later, their Sussex home has become their base - not just a weekend escape for relaxation, but a home filled with collections, an office, and a series of formal gardens that has proven perfect for entertaining. Nestled between pages of stunning imagery from some of the design world's best photographers, Moschino and Vergeylen include engaging stories and anecdotes from their years spent in the English countryside, along with recipes from their favourite dinners and notes on their celebrated design philosophy. And now they invite you to join them, in their beautiful country home.
