Forget the rules and transform your home without doing a full renovation using your own brilliant and creative ideas from the simple and intuitive methods of Free Style.
Creating the perfect home comes down to unlocking your own personal style and designing to reflect it. Designer and artist Liz Kamarul has always believed this, and in Free Style she shares her methods for creating uniquely beautiful homes. Rather than rules and checklists, Liz offers a different approach for home design. She asks readers questions that can help them start the design process, including:- What do you already love? You'll learn how to highlight specific colors, textures, and features so you can bring more of what you love into your space.
- What's the one thing you really don't like? Sometimes it's as easy as finding the biggest pain point and making it a positive. Elements that are unavoidable--like permanent fixtures you didn't choose or pesky cords hanging from electronics--can be transformed into eye-catching design elements that elevate your décor rather than becoming an eyesore.
- What do you already have? Stunning design doesn't have to be expensive, and Liz shares her tips and tricks for giving new life to the things you already own and creating a new style around existing fixtures.
With gorgeous photos of homes that put these methods into action, you'll be inspired to make mistakes, use materials in weird ways, work with what's around, and in the end create a home that is amazingly and uniquely yours. Whether it's a rental or a forever home, a full redesign or a budget project, Free Style is your guide to designing a personalized home that you'll love living in.
