Foundations : timeless design that feels personal / Nate Berkus with Heather Summerville.
"Nate Berkus is beloved for his elegant, narrative-driven interiors that are layered and deeply personal. In this beautifully photographed book, filled with Nate's warmth and years of knowledge, he shares his Four Tenets of Good Design. They are not a recipe to follow, as much as they are inspirational ideas to help get you started: Make it Personal -- Draw inspiration from the places you've been, what you love, and who you aspire to be at home. Embrace History -- A room feels most complete when it has old things in it; think about where you can bring in objects and details that have stood the test of time. Build Character -- Consider introducing architectural details, classic materials, and timeless finishes that will make your home unique. Develop a Vision -- Turn your inspiration into a design that embodies who you want to be at home and how you want to live. For Nate Berkus, enduring design is honest, emotional, and tailored to the people who live in it. That means creating rooms that can grow and evolve with you. Foundations is an invitation and inspiration to design a space that is unequivocally yours." -- Provided by publisher.
