Calm

Tameika — Wed, 06 May 2026 05:24:12 +0000

In recent times, many of us have spent more time at home than ever before. Creating a home that instills a sense of calm will cocoon and protect us from the outside world, create a sense of wellbeing and make us feel truly nurtured.Calm will help you create a restful, restorative interior that draws you in and makes your shoulders drop the moment you walk through the door. Sally Denning first explores the essential foundations of a tranquil, comforting home: calming and harmonious colours, textiles, pattern, lighting and decorative elements. She goes on to explore a mix of accessible real-life homes, ranging from city homes to country houses, new builds, flats/apartments, beach houses and more. The spaces may be different, but they all share one thing: a timeless, soothing and restful atmosphere that is a pleasure to come home to.

Inside Stories

Tameika — Wed, 06 May 2026 05:23:58 +0000

In Inside Stories, Hilary Robertson reveals a multitude of ways to curate and arrange those objects and possessions that make up the stuff of life, from treasured artworks and decorative accessories to everyday objects such as hats, baskets and bicycles.

In the first chapter, How to Arrange your Stuff, Hilary considers four different approaches to creating arrangements – intuitive, narrative, practical and curatorial – and shows how each one can be achieved. She considers the variety of display locations available within the home – walls, mantelpieces, windowsills, chests of drawers, tabletops – and suggests how to make the most of them with decorative vignettes. Next, in Stories Told by Real Homes, Hilary casts her stylist’s eye over interiors that fall into five different styles – Neatnik, Bohemian, Naturalist, Sculpture Vulture and Noble Salvage. Some people are magpies – they love stuff; finding, collecting, and displaying it – while their opposite, the minimalists, are on a mission to contain or tame it. The ideas in this book will appeal to magpies, minimalists and everyone in between.

At Home

Tameika — Wed, 06 May 2026 05:23:44 +0000

Evoking memories of the past and aspirations for the future to create unique contemporary interiors. Interior design should not be sterile or static; it’s a living extension of art meant to be touched, used, and admired. This mindset is the heart of Brian Paquette’s interiors. Beginning with the motto, “Function and comfort, first and always,” Paquette explores each client’s interests and lifestyle to create homes that reflect their identity, history, and aspirations. Integrating the placement of furniture, exposure to light, surface texture, and art, a client’s memories are translated into an evocative presence in the home, anchoring them to their past while providing a space of comfort and function for their future.

At Home provides inspiration to replicate these methods in your own home regardless of style or budget. How does a person keep their memories alive in a home? Through fabric? A particular scent? Surface texture? Light exposure? Considering these elements and others, this is how Brian Paquette builds a room. By sharing each unique process of design for the ten homes featured in his book, readers can begin to consider their own memories and aspirations for how they too can create a home interior that is a true reflection of themselves.

Peace in the West

Tameika — Wed, 06 May 2026 05:23:28 +0000

The interior design career of William Peace has spanned more than thirty years. His work has crossed stylistic periods, places, and mediums. He is equally at ease designing a multigenerational ranch on thousands of acres; a small, environmentally sensitive cabin deep in the woods; or a modern steel, stone, and glass house overlooking a lake. Peace has created projects so authentic to the American western vernacular as to be indiscernible in place or time. However, he has concurrently created stunning modern projects that offer extraordinary fluidity between the indoors and outdoors due to the melding of indigenous materials with abundant glass. Irrespective of period or aesthetic, he takes his direction from the location, the landscape, and the light. Neither he nor the natural world are ever in error. From traditional to modern, rustic to refined, mountains to lakes, and peaks to valleys, Peaceâs work has been specific to each client and place (in this book, southwestern Montana, northern Idaho, and the Texas Hill country), with a singular and specific design for each homeowner. Peace understands that light and landscape dictate how one lives in the West, and they are critical considerations in designing a home. The cycle of the day in the American West is always dictated by the natural world.
