Known and recognizable for many of the apartment buildings on Park Avenue, Fifth Avenue, and Sutton Place 82 in New York, including the historic 740 Park, sometimes called the richest and most powerful address in New York, where famous residents included John D. Rockefeller Jr., Candela's work is both timeless and deeply extravagant of its era. Classic in style and yet modest in exterior appearance, it is in the interiors, in the apartment designs, in the exceptional and often luxurious arrangements of rooms and spaces, where his designs set a standard that serves as a benchmark and desirable target of taste and refinement. The authors explore these fundamental spaces through the lens of exterior spaces and urban design, design and interior architecture, as well as environmental and creation stories. Additionally, the pear and comprehensive black-and-white vintage photography as well as the color images of the exteriors, original designs, and a collection of exceptional interior views offer historical perspective (including the charming living streets of Park Avenue by Slim Aarons) and contemporary burst (as seen in Derry Moore's depiction of K. K. Auchincloss's penthouse at 1040 Fifth). The story told is of the designer-genius who gave shape to the New York of his dreams. Pages: 304, Dimensions: 25.4x25.4cm
