Design Reimagined - by Corey Damen Jenkins (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

The second book from AD100 and Elle Decor A-List designer Jenkins celebrates his blend of vibrant maximalism and youthful traditionalism in projects around the country.

With his first book, Design Remix, Jenkins burst onto the design scene with an explosion of color, elegance, and new traditionalism that the design community and consumers loved. His second book picks up where the first left off, as Jenkins embarks on a new chapter in his life and firm.

In this new book, stunningly packaged with a glorious peacock-printed case and gilded edges, Jenkins takes readers inside ten glamorous projects. Whether it is an Upper East Side apartment overlooking the NYC skyline, a Hamptons beach house, or a sprawling estate in the American countryside, this new volume highlights the design tenets Jenkins has become celebrated for: his unapologetic embracing of classic architectural bones, rich color combinations, classic elements with a modern twist, and dynamic pattern play. Room-specific sidebars explore topics such as powerful dining rooms, statement powder rooms, luxurious living rooms, speakeasies and other secret spaces, and guest rooms. Featuring the warm and practical voice for which he is beloved, Design Reimagined will please Jenkins's current fans and win over a whole new audience.
