More Beautiful: All-American Decoration

The media could not be loaded. This book is pure eye candy for design lovers! More Beautiful is so inspiring. Every page is a masterclass in layering texture, pattern, and timeless style. From breezy coastal to vibrant traditional, each room tells a story. The photography is stunning, and the styling feels both aspirational and completely livable. A must-have for your coffee table or design library!

This book is very interesting to read and learn. Moreover also offers such visual pleasure in each page; for now my favorite of the series that him has published in the past.I had bought all of them, and they are beautifully written and ver inspiring but this one is in my opinion de most glamorous 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

What an awesome treat. Received James Farmer's new book on August 20, followed up by this on September 1. Both such fantastic examples of beautiful, traditional, and very layered design.More Beautiful is even better than Sikes first book, Beautiful, although it follows the same familiar layout. More Beautiful has 6 chapters. Although only specifically mentioned in one chapter, I think each chapter with exception of the last features two different homes. Beautiful was organized by color combinations, and More Beautiful focuses on specific decorating styles. The chapters are:Introduction: features blue and white in the first portion, and neutrals in the second half.Traditional (bright colors and southern charm): more blue and white to be sure, but also yellows, green, and a touch of coral.Coastal: blue & white (of course), and neutrals.Country:: more rustic than the previous chapters, with blue, white, green, black, warm browns, green, and just a hint of lilac.Mediterranean: more bright colors than the previous chapters, adding red, terracotta, and coral into the mix.Beautiful: The designers own home!There are two pages of text in each chapter and a mix of full-page photos and collages. There is a mix of small-print captions describing the specific photos, and larger cursive-style captions that are more like a decorating tip. There are also quotes from famous people mixed throughout.I found something to relate to in every chapter and I love all the detailed layers. So much inspiration! There is a lot of blue and white, but still enough of other colors as well.

The introduction says it all. Beauty is everywhere in this book. No detail was left undone. I especially liked the blue and white vignettes on the inside cover. More Beautiful welcomes you with an image of an open arched door with a view of a beautiful staircase featuring blue and white tiled risers. As you turn the pages, amazing interiors are showcased with my favorite being on pages 12 & 13. Every aspect of this room is amazing - the trio of pillows with a triangular embroidered design mirroring the border on the draperies, the gorgeous geometric rug, the complimentary fabrics on the wicker chairs, the floral blue and white tablecloth, and the built-in cabinet next to the fireplace with blue and white ginger jars and vases. It is extraordinary. Of course, the beauty doesn't end there. It is just the beginning of an inspirational design book which I will reference often and share with friends. There is something to be said about surrounding yourself with beauty everyday to bring you peace and joy. Thanks for sharing your creativity Mark and I look forward to your next book.
