Fans of the less-is-more aesthetic and timeless interior design concepts will enjoy reading interior designer Lewis’s (Made for Living) gorgeous book. Part career reflection and part showcase, this book spotlights the many upscale homes Lewis has styled. Readers are privy to her thought process and are taken behind the scenes to see the homes that she and her team have crafted for their wealthy clients. The book features more than 200 of Degges’s stunning photographs, which showcase Lewis’s keen eye for styling with neutrals as the centerpiece. She stays true to her philosophy that rooms don’t need to be layered with too many items. With insight into Lewis’s mindset and collaborative process, this book is less about design advice and more about the business of designing to meet one’s needs.
VERDICT Gorgeous to thumb through, this illuminating title will do well in libraries with strong circulating interior design collections.
