Coming Home

- Reviews -

"Barbara de Vries' s Coming Home is a visual feast of wildly beautiful interiors crafted with originality and ingenuity. Each and every one has a fascinating narrative that enriches the wonderful photography, bringing you that much deeper into private worlds, which I find completely inspiring. This is a book of interiors that couldn' t be more in sync with our times. "--Wendy Goodman, Design Editor of New York Magazine"It' s all too rare, and such a treat, to have a window into a culture from an insider with the perspective of an outsider. Barbara has had the distance to identify what is truly unique to the Dutch, and the lifelong connections to find this lovely mix of creatives with inspiring, thoughtful, and hopeful stories. Coming Home is a great playbook as we' re all looking for ways to reinvent our spaces--and just as hygge suddenly became a part of our vocabulary years ago, I think this book will do that for gezellig. "--Yolanda Edwards, Founder and Creative Director of Yolo Journal"In Coming Home, Barbara de Vries offers a joyful picture of contemporary Dutch domestic life. In these homes--many of which are agricultural or industrial buildings that were repurposed by their creative owners, among them architects, designers, and artists--a sense of exuberance characterizes the interiors. Some are elegantly spare, while others are filled with art, furniture, and objects, but unlike so many interiors today, there is nothing studied or precious about these spaces. They are full of meaning and heart, and speak volumes about their owners' personalities and passions. "--Pilar Viladas, Design Writer and Editor
