"In her follow-up to Creative Walls and Creative Display, Geraldine James presents the homes of the people she considers truly inspirational. From London and Milan to New York, we visit the houses, apartments and studios of people who inhabit very different creative worlds. We glimpse inside the contemporary townhouse of fashion designer Betty Jackson, the family home of Gisela Garcia-Escuela, one of the leading lights behind the Anthropologie stores, and are given a tour of the combined studio and home of Italian designer Barnaba Fornasetti. Chapters on Individual Eclecticism, The Art Lovers, Modern Industrialist, Carefully Curated Purists, The Archivists, and Everchanging Displays, their very titles giving an inkling of the different styles and treasures to be found within. The home owners range from well-known names from the worlds of art, design and fashion, to private individuals, and range from a London council flat to a farm in upstate New York, but all have one thing in common - their living spaces are inspired and inspiring, unique, individual, personal, and never, ever run of the mill. Geraldine James has developed a passion for collecting and finding unusual and beautiful things. She now works as a home buying manager at Selfridges, spending part of her time travelling extensively to find exciting new products for the store.
