Domino: The Book of Decorating follows a straightforward, room-by-room chapter structure featuring a run of lusciously photographed, beautiful interiors forming the centrepiece of each chapter. Large double-page images punctuate more densely packed spreads; richly composed full rooms alternate with sensuous details. This sequence of spreads puts the reader inside real, finished rooms from the Domino universe, each annotated to translate how its distinctive beauty and sensibility has been achieved.
For a new generation of homeowners and renters, Domino: The Book of Decorating promises to become the dcor bible: a constant source of guidance, inspiration, and excitement.
"The new decor bible for how we live today." -- Albert Hadley
