Inspiring reads

These are a couple of the most inspiring design books I’ve bought in the past year – I can highly recommend them:

Bazaar Style: Decorating with market and vintage finds shows an eclectic collection of places furnished with a gorgeous jumble of new, antique and second-hand pieces. Each home is incredibly unique and really conveys the personality of its owners – I felt like crawling into the pages so I could live inside almost every single one.

My next favourite is Family Lifestyle: Home by Anita Kaushal. The pictures are amazing and it gave me loads of ideas about how to create a home for both adults and children, which doesn’t feel too grown-up or too overrun by all the detritus that comes with child-rearing. Quirky & elegant.
