In this timely interiors book, design duo Atlanta Bartlett and Dave Coote explore a new type of minimalism. This isn''t the 1990s version where lonely sofas sat in monastic empty rooms but an altogether softer approach. The emphasis is in appreciating the imperfect, encouraging self-expression and never compromising on comfort - all whilst keeping the core principles of simplicity, utility and elegance firmly in sight. This new minimalism has romance and nostalgia at its heart. It celebrates the plain and simple things in life; loves old, time-worn treasures; shuns materialism in favour of sustainability and creates a home to soothe the soul. The book includes stunningly photographed case studies of homes, alongside chapters on topics ranging from colour usage and storage, to sustainability and sourcing found objects from nature. This is the perfect manual for curating elegant and soothing living spaces. Featured homes include: - Coastal Dream - Prairie Charm - Country Industrial - Ship Shape - New England Haven - Pretty in Pink
