Pubblicato nel 1993 da Rizzoli, Architettura da camera si può considerare un classico dell’architettura di interni. A lungo esaurito, viene ora riproposto in una nuova edizione, curata dalla nipote di Mongiardino, Francesca Simone, che mantiene il testo originale ma modifica in parte l’apparato iconografico e la veste grafica per renderli più aderenti al testo. Laureatosi con Gio Ponti nel 1942, dagli inizi degli anni Cinquanta si afferma come architetto realizzando alcune delle case più affascinanti della seconda metà del XX secolo, destinate ad una clientela internazionale e prestigiosa di colti collezionisti e grandi imprenditori tra cui Thyssen, Onassis, Agnelli, Safra, Zanussi, Valentino, Versace, Rothschild e Hearst. Contemporaneamente porta avanti la sua attività di scenografo per il teatro e per il cinema lavorando con Franco Zeffirelli, Peter Hall, Giancarlo Menotti, Raymond Rouleau. Architettura da camera si articola in una serie di lezioni-racconto volte a spiegare metodo e canoni della sua architettura di interni. Riccamente illustrati con riferimenti storici e a dimore realizzate da Mongiardino, i capitoli affrontano ciascuno uno specifico problema (la stanza troppo alta, la stanza lunga) o una questione di gusto, per esempio quello per le rovine, per mostrare come risolverlo prima da un punto vista spaziale e di proporzioni e poi attraverso la minuziosa progettazione di ogni dettaglio, eseguiti dai fedeli artigiani che collaborarono con lui per tutta la sua carriera. Abilissimo creatore di spazi spettacolari, Mongiardino ha saputo accostare oggetti comuni e di antiquariato in un gioco magistrale di tessuti preziosi o dipinti, pannelli scolpiti e non e una gamma di trompe-l’oeil grazie ai quali otteneva capolavori con materiali poveri. Lo “stile Mongiardino” è ormai divenuto leggendario tanto da meritare continue pubblicazioni sulle più importanti riviste di architettura e interni, ma anche su quelle di larghissima circolazione, come il magazine del «New York Times», oltre a numerosi libri.

Garani Villa, Fiesole, 1953. One of Renzo Mongiardino’s earliest commissions, the now-decaying house has never been altered. Mongiardino designed the arched staircase in the entryway and had his craftsmen paint its trompe l’oeil pattern of latticework and vines.

On the international design scene, Milan-based architect Renzo Mongiardino is renowned as the consummate creator of spectacular, atmospheric spaces. His dramatic, theatrical approach to design has produced elegant period interiors that have influenced many other designers. This handsome monograph, the first complete presentation of Mongiardino's work, explores his philosophy of space, design, and life itself. Extraordinary color photographs illustrate the brilliant arrangements of objects, art, and antiques and the rich array of textiles and painted effects-- faux wood, marble, and other materials, extravagant full-scale trompe l'oeils-- that epitomize his style. Mongiardino draws from sources that range from ancient Greek, Roman, and Etruscan artifacts to the work of the Renaissance and baroque masters Michelangelo, Palladio, Bernini, and Borromini and to antique fabrics, carpets, and objets; he also adds poetic recollections of important personal and historical spaces and incorporates his view of nature as a collaborator in the design process. Equally important is his ability to reflect the personality and lifestyle of his distinguished clients, whether in New York, London, Milan, Rome, or Paris. The resulting interior landscapes transform rooms into evocative surroundings of startling beauty. Practical considerations of design are discussed in Mongiardino's own words. He shares his insights into particular spaces-- small or large, study or grand gallery-- and traces the solutions he originated to create them. Through early sketches, impressionistic drawings and watercolors, and detailed photographs, he unfolds the story of each space, highlighting both its particular challenges and the lessons to be learned from its ultimate success as a stunning environment for living.
