This book is dedicated to my family.
Thanks to all of you, home is my happy place because it’s where we are together.
To my parents, who taught me to appreciate art, history, architecture, design, craftsmanship, style, and creativity, and imbued my spirit with a passion for beautiful objects and interiors.
You encouraged me to chart my own path and build a career doing what I love.
To my husband, Alexander, who encourages, nurtures, and fuels my creative spirit, champions my ideas with blind faith, and inspires me to always go further.
You take me places where the skies are always blue, no matter what the weather on the ground, and there is no better adventure than life with you!
To my daughters, Robin and Fiona, who dazzle, delight, and amaze me daily with their sweet, joyful creations and unbridled enthusiasm and zest for life.
You have inspired me to design homes that are youthful and happy, and you have filled our home with joy and love.
