CALL IT HOME

Cat Chen Amber Lewis Shade Degges

The Details That Matter

Through gorgeous photography and heartfelt essays, the interior designer and author of Made for Living reveals her detail-oriented approach to renovating, decorating, and building a beautiful home.
The details can make a room. The bullnose edge of a marble countertop. The wood grain and color of the flooring. The particular pleat of the drape. Amber Lewis, the esteemed designer known for her signature Cali-inspired style, obsesses over the tiniest of features to create her eclectic, laid-back look. In CALL IT HOME, she shares her secrets to choosing and applying fabric, paint, finishes, tile, flooring, and more for a beautifully designed home, shortcutting the often-overwhelming decision-making process.

Amber walks you through eight new homes she designed - including her own - and the thought processes behind every major choice. Whether you're decorating one room, renovating your entire house, or planning new construction, she shares how to approach a project from start to finish, guiding you on how to find the right team so you can get the perfect results. Then she takes you through mountain retreats and surfside homes, dreamy escapes she's created by pulling inspiration from the surrounding property for a look that's unique to each home. Through personal essays, you'll learn how she set about the project, what challenges her team faced, and the materials she used to achieve the finished result.

With more than 200 gorgeous images of livings rooms, kitchens, dining rooms, entryways, bedrooms, and baths, you'll have photographs of Amber's details on hand when you're ready to create your own collection of stunning spaces - and call it home.

My hope in writing this book is to simplify the very complicated process of building a home and dissect a few more layers of the interior design and building process. Not just pillows and paint colors - though I want to help you hone in on your personal style as well! - but also the tile, fixtures, woodwork and architectural features, and other details I return to again and again.
