A book that shows rooms for people to aspire to and also how to achieve them, this is a complete package! In Michael Smith's first book, he presents his design philosophy in a rich and useful package that will appeal to anyone interested in a comfortable, stylish home.
Glamour without pretension, this is a book about polished, fresh, design that is both aspirational and attainable. Divided into two parts, and ranging from the artistic to the practical, the book captures the diversity of influences and ideas that emerge from Michael's work.
In Part One, several houses are presented, each one as a complete story so that the reader sees how each room works on its own and within the house as a whole. The houses will be grouped by five themes (country houses, city apartments, family houses, private retreats).
Part Two is a dynamic, informative, and idea-filled resource of photoillustrated tips, provocative opinions, and insider decorating advice. Where the first part of the book encourages the contemplation of style, the second part takes a more practical stance, and addresses issues pertinent to every home.
