David Hicks is acknowledged as one of the most important interior designers of the late twentieth century. Known for his bold use of color, eclecticism, and geometric designs in carpets and textiles, Hicks turned English decorating on its head in the ’50s and ’60s. His trademark use of electrifying color combinations, and mixing antiques, modern furniture, and abstract paintings became the "in style" for the chic of the day, including Vidal Sassoon and Helena Rubinstein. Written by his son Ashley Hicks, this is a vibrantly illustrated celebration of a half century of stunning interiors.
