I've had the nice surprise to receive last weekend an email from super talented art director and stylist
Hans Blomquist who mentioned the imminent release of his upcoming book,
the Natural Home. No need to say that between
the stylist's natural eye for beauty and
Debi Treloar's immense photographic talent, they got me at the cover page.
Hans Blomquist was kind enough to share with us some pictures of
The Natural Home, due for release on April 1, 2012 and available through most book
retailers.
As
Hans Blomquist puts it himself,
"the book celebrates a home where style, through furniture and materials used, is very natural, celebrating vintage objects with patina that aged with time and use [...] The homes shown are furnished in a very spontaneous way... unplanned or un-staged, where the style and setting have evolved with time, where furniture and objects found their place, almost by accident. [...]
". The Natural home is an ode to the "perfect-imperfect" look many of us try to achieve in our home, a look that instantly gives character to a space and clearly contrasts from a "showroom" or catalog home. Can't wait to add this one to my personal home decor book collection... Monsieur Blomquist, merci!
