American Designers at Home

American Designers at Home is an engaging and visually enticing interiors book profiling over 20 of the most important names in American design and decoration in their own personal spaces, from hip hang outs in Brooklyn to expansive Mid-Century masterpieces on the Californian coast, and everything in between.

Each designer has been profiled and photographed at home – alongside details of their working life and the story of how they became interested in design, they talk at length about the house itself and the thinking behind its design and decoration.

From Long Island’s ultimate glamorous house boat to a dreamy family farmhouse in the Texan countryside, these are the most influential designers working today, setting trends and standards for classic and modern American style.
