white and neutrals is a wonderful way to achieve this.''- CHRISSIE RUCKER
In the much-anticipated The Art of Living with White, Chrissie Rucker, founder of The White Company, explores 10 inspirational homes that feature different ways to decorate with a white and neutral palette through the seasons. The homes vary in size, style and location - from a minimalist city pied a terre to a New England-style country house - but what unites them all is the welcoming feel the creatives who own them have made forged with their individual approaches to what makes a home.
The homes are divided into the four seasons and each season ends with a summary of seasonal rituals that will work in any home. There's a concluding chapter of decorating advice from Chrissie Rucker, including on how to get to know your own style, creating the balance between work and home in interior spaces, the art of simple entertaining and the importance of scent and touch in a welcoming home.
