Interior decorator Jonathan Rachman opens the doors of his universe in this volume illustrating his eclectic style, vividly colourful and markedly refined, across his different projects undertaken for prestigious clientele.

Born on the island of Sumatra in Indonesia, trained in Switzerland, and today based out of San Francisco, Jonathan Rachman injects his projects with his own wide-reaching, worldly experienceβ€”his explorations into provincial flea-markets, his taste for textiles, leather goods, handicraft, and art objects.

In each of his projects, he combines the best of materials from the East and the West, concocting personalised plans for his clients and aiming to create a timeless approach to interior design. With a lively colour palette, luxurious materials, and an incredible attention to detail, Jonathan Rachman has received multiple awards and acclaim for his work from renowned publications such as Vogue, Elle, and Harper's Bazaar.

Currently Classic by Dean Rhys Morgan and Jonathan Rachman showcases these qualities, offering readers an insight into the creative force behind Jonathan Rachman's most stunning interiors.
