    Book By My Bed: Dream Decor

    As an interior designer and interiors blogger, I’m pretty immersed in the digital design world and if, like me, you happen follow any of the blog glitterati on social media, you likely know the name Will Taylor and be familiar with his beautiful, colourful blog, Bright.Bazaar.

    Book By My Bed: Simplicity

    There was a time when design books where only realised by designers and the coffee table brought us hunks of their sage design advice and beautiful pictures of their work. Almost an extension of their portfolio.  However, with the arrival of the blogger, design books have taken a bit of a turn. Like an extension of the blog that launch the writer, these books are full of achievable design written in an easily digestible way.  Recently I have found myself wanting to get my hands on a designer written book.

    A Book By My Bed: Shades of Grey

    I’m a big fan of Kate Watson-Smyth, who writes the killer (and multi award winning) blog Mad about the House, and is also an interiors journalist for many big publications. I was delighted when I was browsing her blog a few months ago and saw an announcement of the imminent realise of her book. As the good design junkie I am, I immediately hopped over to Amazon and pre-ordered it. The wait was a killer, let me tell you!

    A Book By My Bed: Love x Style x Life

    This book is popping up everywhere. I first saw it on Instagram where it was beautifully featured in numerous photos on my feed! I next saw it displayed in a towering stack at Anthropologie and I’m now seeing it artfully arranged in styled Interiors shots here and there and, well, here. In other words, this book is everywhere and this book is now, baby!!! So I couldn’t help myself. I had to purchase a copy of my very own to find out what all the fuss was about.

    A Book By My Bed: Styled

    While the internet is a never-ending source of inspiration, one of my favourite ways to get the creative juices flowing is by curling up with a good book. As you can imagine, I have a fair share of interior design books stacked around my office and towered on my nightstand so I wanted to start a new feature here on the site– A Book By My Bed. This feature will give you a peek at some of my favourite interior design tomes and will hopefully introduce you to some amazing designers.
