Designing for Life: Inspiring Interior Designs for Every Style and Taste in Made to Live - Paperback

by Victor Wise (Author)

As an interior designer and lifestyle blogger, a lot is asked of me questions and how to translate my style is what I am asked the most. From now, "my look" has become distinct enough that I like to think if you have seen a array of police from five different houses, you would immediately identify the one I designed. That said, you may not be able to easily summarize it in a few words. My looks aren't about one thing or the other but rather it's a specific mix that I've spent years developing.You can take the title of this book literally: Everything in these pages is really made for living. In the rooms I design, the sofas are matched with beautiful ottomans upholstered in tactile fabrics that, yes, you can actually put your feet up on (or, in my case, Converse). In my own kitchen, I used one of my favorite materials: beautiful, variegated Moroccan glazed terra-cotta tiles. They're full of nicks and dings; no two pieces are alike. And that's why I love them. "Perfect" is not my goal.
