Great design reads

It is always an inspiration and great entertainment to sit and browse through a new book by a beloved designer.
Below a resent selection found in the bookstore near me!



Vicente Wolf's style has captured my style sensibilities since I got to know his work more the 15 years ago.


Her work is fabulous and a great inspiration for me. Light, modern and the best of traditional style fusion.



Timeless Scandinavian style. Modern and traditional mix in perfect harmony!
And below captures my idea of a graceful life. To live with what you love makes your home the extension of your soul.


The one below actually came home with me, it is a great personal inspiration to restore, re purpose and to recycle.


It's a great way to live green to reuse what you have, to buy antiques or used pieces with potential, to freshen up, look for your
inherited china or take those chairs from the attic and paint them white and mix and match the around the kitchen table...
