Description

How We Live Now is an inspiring guide to making the most of every square inch of your space. This practical, problem-solving book will help you take a long hard look at your home and work out how to make the most of every room—even every corner. Perhaps you’re trying to carve out more space to accommodate a growing family, or maybe you’re wondering where you can squeeze in a home office, a guest bedroom, or a kids’ playroom. Whatever your particular needs, in How We Live Now Rebecca Winward explores ways to make your home work harder for you. She explores open-plan living, opting for more flexible room configurations, and using pockets of “dead space”—under the stairs, in the entry, or in the garden—that have unrecognized potential. Multi-tasking furniture and smart storage both have their role to play, as does versatile lighting. Streamline everyday life with How We Live Now.
