INTERIORS BY YOO – imaginative, individual and rare – like you
Design inspiration from the world’s most innovative design company, with trade secrets from its stable of world-class designers: Philippe Starck, Kelly Hoppen MBE, Jade Jagger and Marcel Wanders.
‘Your home is as unique as you are – a reflection of who you are, what you do and where you’re going.”(John Hitchcox, Chairman of Yoo) London, September 2009 – After ten years of ground breaking global success at the forefront of innovation in the way we live today, international design, branding and property investment company Yoo marks a decade in the industry with the publication of its first book.
The book compounds 192 pages of Yoo’s most cutting edge interior design projects in hotels and private residences all over the world and includes feature pages on the yoo studio’s eighteen style palettes as well as interviews with each designer, within which they bestow their words of ‘design wisdom’.
Interiors by Yoo is a unique manual intended to inspire the reader with design advice and thoughts from four of the most talented names in the design world.
Chairman of Yoo John Hitchcox explains in his personal introduction, “This book is a collection of our work, a tool to stimulate you into thinking about the kind of things you want to surround yourself with at home.”
Through showcasing Yoo’s various style palettes, including the distinctive ‘Culture’ designs from Philippe Starck, the surreal ‘Eclectic’ style of Marcel Wanders, the timeless ‘Urban’ palette synonomous with Kelly Hoppen and the 1970s ‘Disco’ theme palette by Jade Jagger, the book imparts ideas about how to create a living space that is right for you.
As celebrated French designer and co-founder of Yoo, Philippe Starck explains, “The family of Yoo styles has been put together so that we can help people make the right choices. This book is simply a method of assisting you in identifying your own individual style.”
