Summary: Andrew Howard knows that design books can be intimidating for the average homeowner, and he wants to change that. "Rooms that are designed with a capital D can seem out of reach," says Andrew. "I think there has to be another way, a middle ground between DIY and high design. I want people to know there are things they can do right now to improve how they live, from placing the furniture in a way that is conducive to good conversation, to choosing the best paint colors, to finding art and accessories that make a house feel more like a home. These are all things that don't have to cost a lot of money but can drastically change a space. There are so many easy, achievable, economical ways to make your home look great, and in this book I'm excited to share all I know about that with my readers."
