Space of the week ...

One of the greatest features of beautiful coffee table books is 

absolutely how they look in our home or workspace. 

They just bring character to a space and let your visitor's know just that little bit more about you!

I'll be posting a weekly space that shows how well books can be displayed.

 

We usually wouldn't usually consider placing books front on like this, 

it would take up more space, it could look like a book store. 

But I love the concept. 

So much work goes into the covers of books,

 it's what is going to tell you within seconds what the book is about. 

So why not have them displayed really clearly such as this. 

After all I do consider them works of art!

Have a great week everyone!

Kelly Wearstler

Ok, so this is a little hard for me to say because I'm loving all the books I have

 in store at the moment but this one, oh this one is just fabulous! 

So if you don't know who Kelly Wearstler is, she is interior designer extraordinaire and 

now fashion designer of her own line. 

An amazing business woman, Kelly is also a wife and mother of 2 boys.

Kelly's work is out of this world, literally! 

She is so brave and bold with her design choices, she loves colour and geometric pattern. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I think Kelly's work appeals to me because I'm rather conservative in my design approach 

so it's almost like Kelly is my inspirational, creative outlet! 

Kelly's latest book, Rhapsody is one I just had to have in Our Little Place. 

LOVE  LOVE  LOVE

This book seriously makes a perfect gift for Christmas for under $80. 

It would suit any fashionista and design enthusiast plus 

with the great cover, look fab in a lounge room or office.

 I think I have 2 people on my Christmas list who might find this under their tree for Chrissy !! 

(I might be one of them too haha)

Sibella Court

So who is Sibella Court?

Sibella is an Interior Stylist and a Creative Director. 

After living in New York for 15 years, Sibella returned to her hometown of Sydney 

to launch her brand and shop ~ The Society Inc

Over the last 20 years, Sibella has been styling for huge retailers such as Bergdorf Goodman, Bloomingdales, Saks 5th Ave, Pottery Barn and West Elm along with key publications Gournet, Marie Claire and Vogue Living. She has also engaged in product design for nail polish, hardware and 110- colour paint range all under The Society Inc.

So what this all tells me is that this very creative lady knows a thing or two and so very kindly shares all this in her first three books Etc, Nomad and A Stylists Guide to NYC.

Why do I love Sibella's books?

Seriously, what's there not to love!
Not only does she have a great eye when it comes to style and detail, she will take you on a complete journey through her processes of styling and design but also by travelling throughout the world. 

She provides me so much inspiration to go out there, live life to the fullest, explore and do what you love.

I've been fortunate enough to attend a beautiful intimate dinner that Sibella styled. It was just beautiful. It was simple but her attention to all the details is what the dinner such a gorgeous experience. 

Here's some images from Sibella's portfolio ...
