New York's architecture contributes to the city's unique excitement. Whilst many are familiar with the city's energetic facades and canyon-like streets, fewer are familiar with its interior architecture and design. This book sets out to reveal the work of artists, designers and craftsmen who have created its interiors. The work ranges from the grand illusions of muralists, to the pomp of Grecian columns or the streamlined detailing of Art Deco lobbies. Both the familiar and the unusual are presented, from the most spectacular, innovative skyscrapers, like the Chrysler Buildings, and shops such as the Steinway Showroom and Broadway Barbershop, to more intimate domestic interiors and pubs like McSorley's Old Ale House. Comprehensive information on buildings open to the public is included.

This work provides a photographic record of 100 of London's most interesting period interiors, selected by a leading architectural historian. Specially commissioned photographs capture the varied atmospheres, from gentlemen's clubs, hotels, restaurants, shops, pubs and hospitals, to town houses. Each photograph is accompanied by a short text which not only describes the key features of architectural and design interest, but also uncovers related historical anecdotes. Examples include the Art Deco barber shop in the basement of Austin Reed, and the tiled and mirrored halls of Cooke's eel and pie shop in the East End. Intact interiors such as James Smith's umbrella shop in Bloomsbury and the perfectly preserved Victorian interior of the Linley Sambourne house in Kensington are also presented. Comprehensive information on buildings open to the public is included.

Rome is a city built for display and grandeur. For centuries it has been a place of pilgrimage for artists and art-lovers, yet many of its greatest treasures remain unseen by the public. This book sets out to penetrate the hidden world of Rome's historic interiors, and to reveal a side to the city which has been previously unexplored, while aiming to offer fresh perspectives on the less-familiar side of famous buildings. The span of styles presented ranges from the High Renaissance reception rooms of the Palazzo Farnese, to the Art Deco mosaics of Mussolini's Foro Italico. It surveys Vatican apartments, palaces and villas, embassies, clubs and private institutions.

Boobela is a giant - a young, shy and rather lonely giant. Worm is a worm - wise and opinonated, but above all, he's a clever and loyal friend. They live in a world that's a lot like ours, but not quite. When Boobela meets Worm, she has the chance to overcome her fears, pursue her strange and magical powers ...and have lots of funny, exciting and heart-stopping adventures with the kids at the balloon club, on her gran's magic island and at the beach.

Boobela and Worm

Orion Children's Books (an Imprint of The Orion Publishing Group Ltd )

Boobela is fed up! She's bored with routines and she's secretly missing Mum and Dad who are still abroad. She knows she shouldn't take it out on Worm, but she can't help herself. Will their friendship ever return to normal? In the other stories, Boobela meets a rival for Gran's affections, but she has fun too, helping the shy swimmers overcome their fears, and having the best ever birthday party with all her new friends. The Boobela and Worm stories go from strength to strength as Joe Friedman's vividly imagined world unfolds, brought to life by Sam Childs's stunning full-colour artwork.

In their second book of adventures, Boobela discovers all about Worm's family after a busy day at the beach; Worm invents a clever bet to get Boobela to eat proper food (instead of crisps and pizza); Boobela tries to prove how brave she is by camping out in the Haunted Wood; and the friends encounter the belching giant - a volcano which holds a precious secret deep within. Along the way, we hear more from Boobela's mum and dad, learn how to make a compost heap (Worm-style), find out what sports worms like to play ...and learn a little more about the best kind of magic there is: the magic that's inside the heart and mind.
