"In her first book, interior designer Meg Braff presents the building blocks of a pretty, polished home. Everyone wants a house that is filled with grace and charm. Classic yet cheerful, Meg Braff's style has a formality that is never studied, an elegance that is approachable and pretty. In seven chapters that cover the basics of her look, Braff shares advice on creating rooms that are both livable and attractive. In the first two chapters, she explores the key elements of her look, color and pattern, and how to employ them for maximum impact in your home. She discusses the essential elements of stylish bedrooms (hint: bring back the dressing table), explores the fundamentals of inviting baths and breakfast rooms, and gives tips on making chic outdoor spaces. Finally, Braff explains the importance of finishing touches, the little extras that elevate a room's decor from good to great. An overall theme of gracious living for those looking to impart polish, color, and grace to their home. Born and raised in Mississippi, interior designer Meg Braff has been praised for her ingenious use of color and pattern. Now based on Long Island, Meg Braff Interiors is known for its work in top resort locations including Bermuda, Palm Beach, the Hamptons, and Newport."--Provided by publisher.
