This inspiring book is accompanied by the first traveling exhibition of Doris Duke's mansion Shangri and its modernist architecture and the effective synthesis of Islamic art and design. Located on five acres of terrace gardens and pools overlooking the Pacific Ocean and Honolulu's Diamond Head, Shangri La was a pastoral paradise reflecting the personal passion of the philanthropist Doris Duke to the art, architecture and design of the Islamic world.
The mansion brings together unique architectural features such as carved marble doors, blinds and flowering ceramic tiles, and the decor contains works such as silk fabrics collected during most travels, jewelery tone chandeliers and gilded and cassette ceilings. This volume offers a special tour of breathtaking interiors and views, including Shangri La's magnificent furniture and art. In addition to the archive photographs of Duke and his friends, correspondence and drawings offer a look at a lifestyle defined by the highest aesthetic understanding. Doris Duke's Shangri La will inspire both art and design enthusiasts.
