It’s a good day as I’m excited to debut @susan It’s a good day as I’m excited to debut @susannasalk and my latest tome Making a House a Home. Susanna cleverly conceived a passionate primer on personal and practical rooms with individual chapters on everything from windows and walls to plant life and visual landscapes. I culled the photos from years of shooting for our video series. Delighted that @aerostudios fabulous entry and @johnderian atmospheric NYC loft grace the front and back covers! We film such a wide variety of designers’ homes that there is something for everyone! Hope you love!! #athomewith #makingahouseahome
