The Art of Home is a beautifully crafted and insightful book that strikes the perfect balance between sophistication and everyday comfort. As someone who loves interior design but finds many design books either too aspirational or too simplistic, this book exceeded my expectations.
What I Loved:
✅ Gorgeous Visuals – The photography is stunning, offering endless inspiration for creating a warm yet refined home.
✅ Practical Advice – Unlike some design books that focus purely on aesthetics, this guide provides actionable tips for making stylish choices that fit real-life living.
✅ Approachable Luxury – The book teaches how to achieve a high-end look without feeling pretentious or unlivable, making it ideal for both design enthusiasts and beginners.
✅ Thoughtful Design Philosophy – The author doesn’t just focus on trends; instead, they emphasize timeless design principles that make a home feel personal and inviting.
Room for Improvement:
🔹 While the book is full of inspiration, some readers may wish for more budget-friendly recommendations. However, the principles shared can be adapted to various price points.
Final Verdict:
If you're looking for a design book that blends beauty with functionality, The Art of Home is a must-have. It’s more than just a coffee table book—it’s a resource you’ll want to revisit time and again. Highly recommended for anyone looking to create a home that feels both elegant and livable.

The best part? The book itself is so beautiful that I use it as part of my home decor by stacking it on shelves. If you’re looking for inspiration and practical advice, this book is a must-have!

Love the content and don't regret the purchase. But the cover fell apart in the first month. I don't regret the purchase.

This book was a 5 star read for me!
Shea McGee does a wonderful job of not only telling you how to arrange a beautifully decorated home, but also showing you how with a book full of stunning photos. I’m a visual person and it helps to see pictures of different styles and spaces so that I can recognize what I personally like, and what I don’t. What I loved most about this book was Shea’s practical tips on how to design a beautiful space (how to arrange throw pillows, considering the shape and texture of furniture and how to maximize the way each piece compliments each other, bringing in different textures, etc.). Not only is this book beautiful to look at and use as a decorative piece, but it offers so much beauty and practicality on the inside of the pages. If you’re looking for a wonderful resource on how to bring life and beauty to your home, buy this book!
(The only reason I’m rating this item as 3 stars is because Amazon sent me a book in used condition. The cover had scuffs and oily smudges, and the back was badly stained. I was disappointed to pay $20 for a book that was in this condition. They sent me a replacement book that was in better condition, but it still had scuffs on the front cover. I wish Amazon would take better care when shipping books. This isn’t the first time I’ve had a smudged/scuffed book shipped to me. 😪)
