## Description

From Lauren Liess, TV and social media star, Habitat: The Field Guide to Decorating is “stunningly simple . . . a survival book for any budding decorator” ( USA Today ). Lauren Liess fuses her love of design and the great outdoors into all her work. In Habitat: The Field Guide to Decorating , Lauren invites readers to bring nature inside by mixing the textures of natural elements such as wood and stone with eclectic groupings of modern and quirky vintage pieces. Readers will be inspired by the unique style of these rooms, which include lovely framed botanical prints and Liess’s own textile patterns inspired by wildflowers and weeds. The book is divided into three sections: Part I includes Finishes & Hardware, Floor Plan, Color, Furniture, Rugs, Fabric & Pattern, Lighting, and more Part II includes Aesthetic, Style, Mood, Authenticity, Comfort, Luxury, Charm, and more Part III includes The Living Room, The Dining Room, The Kitchen, The Bedroom, The Bathroom, The Home Office, and more Liess writes in her introduction, “This book is a guide to what I’ve learned through my work and through my personal experiences, describing in precise detail how I progress step-by-step through the design process to make the decisions that ultimately lead to a fully realized vision. I hope it inspires you to have fun while decorating.” If you are thinking of decorating or redecorating a home, you’ll want to have a look at the inspiring ideas that Liess offers―natural, relaxing, and stunning rooms that you, your family, and friends will adore and love to live in. An NPR Book of the Year “Tons of tips, advice, and sources.” ― Elements of Style

Review: Destined to become a classic! - This is by far my favorite design book – and I own a fair share. It is a stunning visual feast. Fans of Lauren’s work will not be disappointed, as there are plenty of pictures, including some familiar spaces but mainly new projects. All are perfectly styled and beautifully shot, with the long awaited dad’s lake house and cousin’s mountain retreat leading the way. The content is very well organized. It is a practical guide how to create your own unique and amazing space. Lauren has put a lot of thought and effort into explaining how she approaches design process and how each element of design fits into the big picture. She carefully walks you through the process of designing spaces that work for you and your loved ones, not how to stage perfect rooms that just look good in pictures. All of the spaces she designs are beautiful but are also livable, comfortable and family friendly. This book, just like her blog, demonstrates that she is truly passionate about her work. Even if you are not a fan of her aesthetic, you will find the book to be a great design resource. I read it in one afternoon (it is a great read!) but I will be going back to it as a reference over and over as I begin the process of redesigning my own home. I admire Lauren’s talent and applaud her willingness to share knowledge and experience in such depth with the rest of us. She could have simply thrown a bunch of styled photos together and called it a day – as many designers and decorators seem to do these days. Thank you Lauren!
Review: Wonderful book. Destined to become a classic on decorating. - I have read countless books on decorating over the years. Habitat: The Field Guide to Decorating has become one of my all-time favorites. Lauren Liess has written a very thoughtful book filled with a concise strategy to use when decorating your home. She guides you step by step on the things to consider when designing a home that reflects who you are. Some other reviewers have complained that the photos in the book are too bland or they all look too muted and the same. That is because this is Ms. Liess aesthetic. Part of HER style. But she shows you how to arrive at your own style in a very detailed and deliberate way. It does require you to read the content and apply those principles to your own preferences. This book is worth repeated readings. She has so much information that might be missed the first time around. Truly a wonderful read!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wonderful book. Destined to become a classic on decorating.

I have read countless books on decorating over the years. Habitat: The Field Guide to Decorating has become one of my all-time favorites.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Well Written, Useful Photos, A Handbook of Design Info
*by A***H on January 11, 2016*

Some design books are for coffee tables: lots of well staged & lit photos, but not much use for the "everyday" person pulling a home together. Not the case for the Lauren Liess & Habitat. She speaks in a quiet & humble voice, and is honest about the mistakes she made earlier with her own home. I could see her eye & taste develop through the book, i.e. over the years. What I liked best & most useful to me was the way she organized Habitat by room, elements, including measurements, "typical" standards, materials & best uses, and finally, the intangibles or "inspirationals". (This is NOT a Decorating For Dummies book! Or a step-by-step guide.) Well worth purchasing & adding to your collection. And the photos are beautiful & inspiring.
