Whether you love to source pieces from your travels or simply wish to evoke the destination of your dreams, "Remix "shows how bold color, unique patterns like ikats and suzanis, original art, and handcrafted furnishings and accessories can help you express your cultural experiences in stylish, unforgettable rooms. With a foreword by HGTV Design Star Danielle Colding, "Remix" is both a striking object for your shelf and a book that restores meaning to the idea of "eclectic" decorating with genuine, personal style., The design community has recently overlooked an important sector of home decorators-African Americans and other urbanites who have transformed previously run-down boroughs of big cities into some of the most desirable places to live today. In Remix, Jeanine Hays and Bryan Mason profile homes throughout Brooklyn, Manhattan, Philadelphia, Los Angeles, and Washington, D.C., that beautifully incorporate cultural details into modern urban design with color (bold, energizing hues), patterns (ancient prints reimagined into contemporary designs), art from up-and-coming artists, and globally sourced furniture and accessories-for authentically designed homes that celebrate diversity in design.
