the details that matter

"Author of Made for Living Amber Lewis reveals her approach to renovating a home and building one from scratch, with gorgeous images and plenty of detail shots so you can be sure to get stunning results. The details of a room make a difference. The bullnose edge of a marble countertop. The wood grain and color of the flooring. The particular pleat of the drape. Amber Lewis, the esteemed designer known for her signature Cali-inspired style, obsesses over the tiniest of features, which she knows are deceptively big decisions that have a great effect on a room. In Call It Home she shares her secrets to applying stone, fabric, paint, flooring, and more that ensure a beautifully designed home, shortcutting the often overwhelming process for you. This book walks you through eight new homes designed by Amber--including her own home--and the thought processes that went into the major choices she made. Whether you're decorating one room, renovating your entire house, or planning new construction, she shares how to approach a project from start to finish and guides you from mood boards to floor plans to finished results. With more than 200 gorgeous images of livings rooms, kitchens, dining rooms, entryways, bedrooms and baths, you'll have photographs of Amber's details on hand when you're ready to create your home"--, Provided by publisher
