Design the Home You Love
Practical Styling Advice to Make the Most of Your Space [An Interior Design Book]
“Not only do Lee and Emily unpack all their tips for creating a space that looks as good as it feels, but they do it in a way that is made for real-life application.”—Bobby Berk, design expert and host of Netflix’s Queer Eye
Interior design can be daunting, and as a result, many of us never even attempt to design our own homes. In Design the Home You Love, Havenly founders Lee Mayer and Emily Motayed break down the ambiguous world of home design. First you learn how to identify your own style (whether you’re a fan of Parisian Modern or California Casual) and then how to incorporate furniture that matches your style and fits your budget. Design the Home You Love takes you step-by-step and room-by-room through each part of the house to help you fulfill your home’s potential.
Whether you’re looking to give your home a complete makeover, spruce up your rental apartment, or merely take your living room from blah to fab, Lee and Emily bring fresh ideas, advice, and inspiration to the table. Illustrated with eye-catching photography and livable inspiration from real-life clients, this is the interior design book that finally makes it possible for us all to achieve our design goals.

When considering books on interior design, there's practical, and then there's pretty. While Havenly co-founders Mayer and Motayed do at times succumb to the ordinary, they also grade up their advice to the very utilitarian, especially for those puzzled about where to start, what to insist on, and items worthy of a splurge. Ripe with color layouts from themselves and their clients, their book first offers a synopsis of major pieces in each room, color (with very helpful hints about white paint), style, and styling. Style, by the way, means what sorts of lines, textures, and colors an individual prefers, while styling is the touch that makes a room real and personable. Among the more unusual features throughout are tips that come with training and experience (for instance, marrying one's personal style with one's partner's), notes on the golden ratio, and commonly asked questions (with answers). Not exactly a how-to; rather, a collection of guidelines to follow.COPYRIGHT(2021) Booklist, ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
