| Summary: | Laura Bohn: Ways of Seeing is the first monograph on the residential work of the prominent New York-based interior designer. Born and raised in Texas, Bohn was an haute couture model in Paris before taking a degree at Pratt Institute where she studied with legendary modernist Joe D'Urso. After working for another design luminary, John Saladino, Bohn teamed with Joseph Lembo to form one of the 1980's most creative and wide-ranging practices, for which she was inducted into the Interior Design Hall of Fame. Since founding her own firm in 1996, Laura Bohn has continued to produce distinctive interiors that combine a rigorous sense of architecture with a sensuous use of unexpected materials, shapes and colors. A pioneer in the residential reclamation of Manhattan's gritty industrial and commercial real estate, the loft conversion of a 1907 Beaux-Arts bank building is a signature project, Bohn is also known for creating idyllic country retreats and airy beach houses. |
