Evoking memories of the past and aspirations for the future to create unique contemporary interiorsInterior design should not be sterile or static; it' s a living extension of art meant to be touched, used, and admired. This mindset is the heart of Brian Paquette' s interiors. Beginning with the motto, ' Function and comfort, first and always,' Paquette explores each client' s interests and lifestyle to create homes that reflect their identity, history, and aspirations. Integrating the placement of furniture, exposure to light, surface texture, and art, a client' s memories are translated into an evocative presence in the home, anchoring them to their past while providing a space of comfort and function for their future. At Home provides inspiration to replicate these methods in your own home regardless of style or budget. How does a person keep their memories alive in a home? Through fabric? A particular scent? Surface texture? Light exposure? Considering these elements and others, this is how Brian Paquette builds a room. By sharing each unique process of design for the ten homes featured in his book, readers can begin to consider their own memories and aspirations for how they too can create a home interior that is a true reflection of themselves.
