Trompe l'Oeil at Home

With a breathtaking collection of photographs, this volume shows how rooms can be magically transformed through trompe-l'oeil murals, objects, paintings, and fabrics, as well as with painted faux finishes that dazzle and beguile the viewer. These ingenious techniques turn wooden floors into opulent marble expanses, adorn plain walls with neoclassical molding, upgrade ordinary furniture to period pieces, and add sumptuous garden views to windowless rooms.
