The Liaigre Legacy

Pam Sommers at Rizzoli sent me the cover of a new book on French designer Christian Liaigre, due out in September, available now for pre-order. My first reaction was, another book on Liaigre? But that got me to thinking, and remembering. For better or worse, Liaigre’s luxuriously spare, Asian-inspired design has been the single most important and enduring design trend of the past two decades and it’s still going strong. So the fact that there are only two books out on his genius is rather shameful.
In Dallas, George Cameron Nash carries Liaigre’s designs for Holly Hunt.
