Book Review :: Designers at Home by Ronda Rice Carman

One of my favorite parts of writing this blog are book reviews! Rizzoli has been so kind to send yet another fabulous design book for me to share with you. This one is called Designers at Home: Personal Reflections on Stylish Living, by Ronda Rice Carman. Ronda is founder of the very popular blog, All the Best. In this book she gives the readers a guided tour through the houses of fifty distinguished designers, including Jan Showers, Tobi Fairley, Bunny Williams, Amanda Nisbet, Barry Dixon, Charlotte Moss, Philip Gorrivan, and Vicente Wolfe. I really enjoyed perusing through the personal homes of each designer and learning about their personal style, design choices, and details on the things that are most important to them. So often we only get to see the work of these incredibly talented designers for their clients homes, but rarely do we get to see inside their own homes. Ronda was so clever to put a book together that showcases the unique and personal havens of this incredibly creative and diverse group of designers! I took several snapshots inside Designers At Home of some spaces that caught my eye. Enjoy and let me know your thoughts. Is this a book you'd consider adding to your library?
