François Halard's unique photographic sensibility is undeniable. Each image is imbued with an intimate knowledge of design history, each story a lesson from a master's perspective.

This book is the sequel to his last volume of magnificent photographs of grandiose interiors, artists' studios, and sites of architectural pilgrimage. The subject of each story is not only a personal passion of the photographer, but also an indispensable chapter in design history: featuring Philip Johnson and Charles James's Menil House, Giorgio Morandi's studio, Rick Owens's Radical Parisian apartment, Eileen Gray's recently restored modernist home on the French coast, Dries Van Noten's leafy garden and home, Louise Bourgeois's home and studio in New York City, and many more.

Like his first book, François Halard 2: A Visual Diary will be a must-have and coveted visual resource for all lovers of interiors, glamour, and style.
