The secrets behind the work of chameleon designer Pierre Yves
Rochon, who has devoted thirty years to the quest for "absolute
comfort." Is there a signature Rochon style? At first, it is
difficult to tell because the designer always adapts his work to
the environment in which it unfolds, bringing out the location’s
unique spirit. A great traveler, he blends international styles,
borrowing from both modern and classical influences. Hailed as a
"visionary designer" and "master of grand luxe" by the Financial
Times’ How To Spend It, Rochon’s most prestigious
commissions include Four Seasons Hotels—in Paris, Florence,
Washington, Shanghai and Cairo, for example—and restaurants for
several Michelin-starred chefs. His residential work includes
sumptuous private homes he has designed across Europe, America, and
the Middle East. This monograph—Rochon’s first—reveals the
designer’s trademark approach to interior splendor. For him, "the
quality of the object and the hand that made it," is essential for
creating a sumptuous interior. He devotes attention to every
detail, from the architecture, to the furniture, the lighting, the
fabrics, and art objects. Where he inserts a new structure into a
space, such as a fireplace or a column, it feels like it has always
been there. His interiors thus exude harmony and comfort, while
retaining a strong sense of the location’s culture, geography, and
history.
