book report


todays book from my bookshelf is "private view" by tricia guild (the founder of the amazing 'designers guild'). tricia has written many books over the years, most of which have focused on her various homes that she has decorated. this one is different, its more of scrapbook of things she finds inspirational. flowers, colours, locations, etc. peppered with lots of beautiful photographs of designers guild fabrics.
my fave part of the book are the end papers - such cute paintings. also you can see this copy is personally signed to me - i was lucky enough to meet tricia at decorex in 2004 ! it was great to meet her as she has been a hero of mine since i was back in art college.

private view by tricia guild - published by quadrille £20 ISBN 1-84400-110-5
