What I Loved: ✅ Gorgeous Visuals – The photography is stunning, offering endless inspiration for creating a warm yet refined home. ✅ Practical Advice – Unlike some design books that focus purely on aesthetics, this guide provides actionable tips for making stylish choices that fit real-life living. ✅ Approachable Luxury – The book teaches how to achieve a high-end look without feeling pretentious or unlivable, making it ideal for both design enthusiasts and beginners. ✅ Thoughtful Design Philosophy – The author doesn’t just focus on trends; instead, they emphasize timeless design principles that make a home feel personal and inviting. Room for Improvement: 🔹 While the book is full of inspiration, some readers may wish for more budget-friendly recommendations. However, the principles shared can be adapted to various price points. Final Verdict: If you're looking for a design book that blends beauty with functionality, The Art of Home is a must-have. It’s more than just a coffee table book—it’s a resource you’ll want to revisit time and again.

  • Glad I bought it!
Format: Hardcover
If you’re into decorating this is a fantastic book! Many pictures, examples, and they even tell you how large of a rug to buy with how much furniture you have! It helped me decide the size of rug I needed for my family room. There’s so many new ideas that came from this book! I just loved it!

  • Tasteful, elegant, and timeless. Full of rich details, layers, and textures.
Format: Hardcover
I’ve been following Studio McGee for many years now and so happy to finally have a book from this designer! The book is impressive for the price. It’s thick with high quality paper and has a helpful and organized user’s guide at the end. The photography is beautiful as are the designs and vignettes on each page. I personally prefer more historic and traditional architecture and homes over the ultra modern designs with floor to ceiling black steel windows. I appreciate that this book does include a variety of architectural styles, so even though there are some spaces I don’t care for, there’s plenty of other pages that showcase the more traditional and historic look that I love. I also think that interior design as a whole is moving away from the trendy modern farmhouse and being replaced with a “modern cottage” look. I think Studio McGee does a good job of using transitional style to bridge that gap, and I really hope going forward they do more of the modern cottage because it is so pretty! The calming palette used in this book is tasteful and elegant and full of rich layers, details, and textures. And for those that prefer louder “pops” of colors, well this book and overall look probably isn’t for you. ... show more
