Photos tell Provence story

More than just a guide for decorating in the popular style known as French Country, Linda Dannenberg’s gorgeously illustrated book is a map to the region of Provence.

Building on the work done by the late Pierre Moulin and Pierre LeVec, founders of the design and retail firm, Pierre Dieux, and illustrated with more than 400 incredible photos, “New French Country” brings the simple beauty of life in the French countryside to homes everywhere.

Covering fabrics, furniture and pottery, and illustrated with pictures from farmhouses to estates, the books gives readers a peek at the rich colors and textures that define the French Country look, as well as a primer for achieving the look on your own.
