Elements of Style: Designing a Home & a Life

$37.50 $14.32

Elements of Style is a uniquely personal and practical decorating guide that shows how designing a home can be an outlet of personal expression and an exercise in self-discovery. Drawing on her ten years of experience in the interior design industry, Erin combines honest design advice and gorgeous professional photographs and illustrations with personal essays about the lessons she has learned while designing her own home and her own life—the first being: none of our homes or lives is perfect.

Review

“All the elements are here: glamour, wit, and inspiration. Tuck in for a stylish life.” (Jonathan Adler)

“Erin Gates’s incredible eye for beauty is matched only by her funny, raw, and honest voice. I am such a fan of this gifted woman and this gorgeous book.” (J. Courtney Sullivan, author of The Engagements and Maine)

“Erin’s book is a breath of fresh air, just like her witty, engaging, and informative blog. And unlike most decorating books, I actually read this one!” (Holly Becker, author of Decor8)

“The thing I’ve always loved about Erin’s blog is how well she balances the personal and professional while making it fun and informational. She has translated that seamlessly into this book, where you get a sense of not only who she is but also expert design advice. And her cheetah print stairs had me at hello… followed by a quick “damn gurl!” (Emily Henderson, HGTV host)

“Of course I loved seeing the hints of David Hicks in her beautiful design work, but what struck me the most was the undecoratorly way this book is written. Hugely refreshing. Erin is a joy both in print and in person.” (India Hicks)

“Filled with her trademark no-holds-barred prose, charming anecdotes, and practical advice.” (Houston Chronicle)

“Style is subjective, but the elements of style are pretty universal. Few people know this better than blogger-turned-interior designer and author Erin Gates. She wrote the book on it–literally.” (Huffington Post Home)

“[Gates] has a knack for combining practical advice […] with humorous reflection on mistakes and lessons learned over the course of her 10-year career as an interior designer.” (BookPage)

“Her advice is glamorous yet practical and often served up with humor.” (Washington Post)

“Its pages are full of gorgeous photographs and funny personal essays about renovation disasters and marital spats over what table to choose. Warning: You may be roped into rearranging the furniture.” (RealSimple.com)
