Explore the emotional connection that a home can have to a person’s life with Feels Like Home from Lauren Liess, the TV and social media star and author of Habitat and Down to Earth
A house is a feeling. That is the conceit behind designer Lauren Liess’s third book, which explores the emotional connection between the way we decorate our homes and our daily lives.
She advises readers to think beyond just the objects in their homes and explore how design informs an intentional, happy, and authentic life.
The book includes practical design information, with never-before-seen case studies on a variety of homes including a farmhouse, a home in the woods, a Spanish colonial, and other more traditional homes. Each case study explores a hardworking design aspect (such as proportion, scale, and color), while also focusing on the emotional aspect of the home.
With chapters inspired by the themes of comfort, calm, excitement, belonging, carefree, love, and contentment, Feels Like Home provides inspiration while also serving as a beautiful object itself.

Luces urbanas y cerezos
Los grabados en madera de Tokio que cautivaron la imaginación de Europa
Utagawa Hiroshige (1797-1858) fue uno de los últimos grandes artistas de la tradición japonesa del ukiyo-e. La palabra significa literalmente «pinturas del mundo flotante» y designa un género artístico que floreció entre los siglos xvii y xix y simbolizó la imagen de Japón en el mundo occidental. Las escenas del ukiyo-e, que en muchos aspectos eran de tipo hedonista, representaban a menudo la brillante luminosidad y las atracciones de Edo: mujeres hermosas, actores y luchadores de sumo, la vida urbana y panorámicas espectaculares.

Uno de los seres humanos más brillantes jamás conocidos, Leonardo sigue siendo el genio del Renacimiento por excelencia. Compañero perfecto de la edición Leonardo da Vinci. Obra gráfica, este libro es un catálogo razonado de todas las obras maestras pictóricas del artista, tanto supervivientes como perdidas, desde la Mona Lisa a La última cena.
The mid-19th and early 20th centuries heralded new means of transport and equipment and, with them, new and original ways of exploring the world. Transatlantic liners, automobiles, long-haul airplanes, zeppelins, and express trains unfurled new horizons and changed travel itself into an adventure. Distant lands were no longer solely accessible to aristocrats, explorers, and adventurers. Instead, the world opened up to new groups of people eager to circumvent the globe. And for many of these new globetrotters, traveling was synonymous with Louis Vuitton, the French label whose iconic and functional luggage trunks could be found on nearly every boat, plane, car, and train around the world.
In this beautiful book, author Francisca Mattéoli recounts 50 tales of thrilling travel undertaken in every possible mode of transit, from the hot air balloon to the space shuttle, each lavishly illustrated with more than 300 historical photographs and ephemera from Louis Vuitton’s official archives. Louis Vuitton: Extraordinary Voyages is a journey all its own—an evocative and transporting account of the most surprising and transformative trips taken since the 19th century.
Written with full access to the company’s archives, this incredible volume demonstrates Louis Vuitton’s passion for fine design with a stunning array of archival art, product designs, and cutting-edge advertising.
The company is examined through the lives of its first three leaders—founder Louis (who invented the modern trunk), his son Georges, and his grandson Gaston.
Now with fresh information on subjects such as designs for ready-to-wear clothing, shoes, jewelry, and even automobiles, this revised edition includes 20 additional pages and updated material throughout the book, covering the brand’s recent history, with new text and photographs.
This book is a work of art, perfect for gifting.
