Blending comfort with sophistication, he creates bespoke spaces that are both artistic and inviting for a devoted clientele, many of whom turn to him again and again. The Refined Home: Sheldon Harte explores his inspiring philosophy of transforming interiors into works of art.
With chapters like "Sensual Surfaces," "Breaking with Tradition," "Modernist Masterpiece," and "Mid-Century Dream," authors Mitchell Owens and Hadley Keller offer an exciting, behind-the-scenes look at his design process, emphasizing the importance of custom artisanship and evocative art.
Illustrated with exquisite images by notable photographers, including Douglas Friedman, Trevor Tondro, Bj�rn Wallander, and John Merkl, The Refined Home showcases Harte's most significant projects, revealing how he balances his artistic vision with his clients' individual tastes and lifestyle.
