Description

Renowned interior designer Cathy Kincaid's first book provides a fresh approach to combining classic and contemporary design with a refined sensibility. Known for her carefully nuanced color palettes and attention to detail, Cathy Kincaid creates warm and gracious interiors. Her worldly taste in collecting art and furnishings, her intricate layering of patterns, and the customized details--from trelliswork to lacquered surfaces--she applies to every room are hallmarks of her style. Presented are varied residences, ranging from a ship captain's cottage and a 1920s Spanish Colonial to a bucolic farmhouse and a family house in the country, in such locations as Dallas, Connecticut, and the South of France. Sprinkled throughout is Kincaid's advice on such topics as selecting the right lighting, whether it be sconces or lamps; ways to showcase blue-and-white porcelain; and suggestions for how to edit one's home. She has been long involved in historic preservation, working on many landmarked dwellings. Learn from this design expert how to achieve a comfortable yet sumptuous home environment. Read more

  • Beautiful Rooms!
Format: Hardcover
This book was mentioned in a video by interior designer Bunny Williams. I am so glad I purchased it. Cathy Kincaid has assembled photo after photo of beautiful, timeless rooms. It has become one of my favorite design books for inspiration.

  • Stunning yet subdued interiors
Format: Hardcover
Where to begin. I had been familiar with Cathy Kinkaids work through shelter magazines for years but never knew who was behind the beautiful interiors until this book. The use of soft pallettes mixed with warm to deep tones is simply devine to the eye. Page after page of rooms filled with pattern and texture carefully curated with antiques and splashes of modern art. A wonder source for timeless interior design. Not for the empty, lifeless all white minimalists interior lovers. This book is all about collecting beautiful objects and furnishings while displaying them with restraint. ... show more

  • Beautifully layered interiors
Format: Hardcover
I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book and viewing the exquisite photos. Each home is beautifully detailed, with many layers – wall coverings, fabric, lamps, art, and objects – all adding up to warm and welcoming interiors. There are 11 homes, each featured in its own chapter, including the designers own home. There is plenty of inspiration to draw from! The book concludes with a list of resources. My only (minor) complaint with the book is that some of the rooms described in the chapters are not included in the photos. It would have been nice to increase the length of the book just a few pages to include them all. ... show more

  • A Lovely Book
Format: Hardcover
I enjoyed looking at this book but I did not care for the designer's use of color. The homes were lovely but lacked the impact that I would have expected. The best home pictured in the book belonged to the designer. It had more color and items of interest than the other homes. Bunny Williams wrote the forward for the book and I say I'll take Bunny Williams design over these any day. I can't recommend the book. ... show more

  • CATHY is my hero!
Format: Hardcover
What can I say? I live in Dallas and Cathy is an ICON and blessed name in the interior design world. She was breaking glass ceilings before it was even a thing. She is beyond talented, color brilliant, and I look up to her so much. This book is worth every single dime of the investment for your coffee table and will blow your mind. ... show more
