Praise for India Mahdavi

“ ‘If there is a common denominator to all my projects, it is the necessity of creating a sense of joy,’ writes India Mahdavi in the introduction to her new book. Indeed, such joviality also pervades this monograph. Focusing on the AD100 Hall of Fame designer’s public projects and products, the book allows readers to immerse themselves in the Paris-based talent’s process as they thumb through her inspiration images, fabric swatches, sketches, maquettes, and more.” --Architectural Digest

“An ode to the power of color, India Mahdavi’s first monograph shines the spotlight on the designer’s trendsetting interiors and signature pieces.” --Wallpaper

“We couldn’t believe it when we heard that interior designer India Mahdavi--the doyenne of all things colorful--had yet to release a monograph. Now it’s here at long last, and it’s chockablock with enough Technicolor rooms to stave off the winter blahs.” --Elle Decor

“This book is the most visually delightful seen in a very long time. Every library needs a copy.” --Interior Design
