I’m always in need of a good book to read and I always particularly love a good design book. They’re a great source of inspiration and full of design lessons. Here’s what I’m wishing for these days:
1)Styled: Secrets for Arranging Rooms, From Tabletops to Bookshelves by Emily Henderson
Erin Gates has written one of the funniest and wittiest design books I’ve read so far. I love that she has a relateable story at the beginning of every chapter. But what I adore the most is that unexpectedly, she got her husband to write the forward note for this book instead of another well known designer and I think it’s sweet what he had to say about her.
Before I got this book, I knew very little about Alexa Hampton. I knew her name and I knew she is one of the top designers. I wasn’t very familiar with her work, but now I am determined to be. There’s a reason why she’s known for what she does. She knows what she’s talking about! If you need several more reasons, she has very good taste and she learned from the best: Mark Hampton, her father. I’ll need to read his book written by his wife.
