Sean Anderson – författare

The first book by designer Anderson, featuring projects showcasing his warm, rustic, modern look, which has a cult following on Instagram and in the design world.Based in Memphis, TN, designer Anderson’s aesthetic is unique and authentic—natural materials nod to rural roots, while sleek silhouettes reflect a modernist sensibility. His work is informed, from concept to completion, by the highest levels of quality, integrity, and craftsmanship.Transforming ordinary environments into something extraordinary, Anderson uses contrast to create balance. There is a soulfulness and sense of meaning to his work, as he plays with light and shadow, texture, art, and form. Working from a warm palette rich in neutrals, the rooms feature a compelling mix of curated objects, timeless furnishings mixed with custom pieces. Rich with character and patina, Anderson’s work nods to the past while infusing each project with modern livability and approachability.With nine full houses ranging from a vibrant retreat in Georgia to a soulful Memphis residence to a chic TriBeCa penthouse, this book explores the unique components of Anderson’s interiors: the juxtaposition of rough and refined, the curious with the sublime, the past and the present.

Modern Architecture and its Representation in Colonial Eritrea offers a critical assessment of architecture and urbanism constructed in Eritrea during the Italian colonial period spanning from 1890-1941. Drawing together imperial projects, modernist aesthetics, and fascist motives, the book examines how the merger of these three significant influences yielded a complex built environment that served to emulate, if not redefine, Italian colonial pursuits. As Italy’s colonia primogenità or 'first born colony', Eritrea and its capital, Asmara, not only bore witness to the emergence of politicized interiors and international expositions, the colony became a vehicle that polarized issues of race and gender. Exploring discourses of modernity in Africa, this book moves between histories of architecture, urbanism, literature and media to describe how Eritrea and Asmara became a crucial fulcrum for Italy's ill-fated pursuits in Ethiopia and other neighboring countries. Consequently, modern architecture inscribed Eritrean subjectivities while redefining technologies that affected constructions of the colonial interior. Modern Architecture and its Representation in Colonial Eritrea demonstrates how architecture in Asmara reshaped the creation and reception of Italian East Africa.
