Daria Reina (photography) and Andrea Ferolla (illustrations) – Italian Chic. New York: Assouline Publishing, 2018. ISBN 978-1-61428-680-6. Beautiful large hardcover featuring a lovely photograph of a classic three-wheeled Italian taxi in front of an ancient building, with brilliant gilt lettering on the front cover and spine. The cover material has a smooth, luxurious, fabric-like feel with a silky quality. Measures approximately 13 inches tall × 9.75 inches wide × 1.375 inches thick; 261 pages. Endpapers and all interior pages are clean, unmarked, and filled with spectacular photography and illustrations of Italian scenery, architecture, art, design details, and daily life. The book shows a significant lean (the only notable flaw). Otherwise it is a stunning, high-quality Assouline production in very good cosmetic condition. Synopsis Italy is synonymous with effortless style and beauty in every aspect of life. In Italian Chic, the creative couple Daria Reina and Andrea Ferolla—longtime collaborators in luxury design and communication—take readers on an intimate, insider’s tour of their beloved country. Moving beyond the well-trodden tourist routes, they explore hidden side streets, lesser-known corners, and everyday details that embody timeless Italian elegance: the Sassi cave dwellings of Matera, the warm red-orange walls of Emilia-Romagna, carved architectural details, fashion, food, interiors, and the instinctive sense of balance that defines Italian living.
