Timeless by Design: Designing Rooms with Comfort, Style, and a Sense of History

Designer Nina Farmer has made a name for herself with her classically beautiful interiors. From reimagining century-old homes to more modern dwellings, Farmer has a way of creating looks that celebrate the past and simultaneously live squarelyand stylishlyin the present. In these pages, Farmer introduces readers to the design solutions she has found for creating that special combination: a carefully curated mix of the classic and the contemporary that looks like it was collected over time rather than created all at once. The book features nine projects, including a stone-walled 1930s colonial in Westport, Connecticut, a mid-centuryinspired beach bungalow on Marthas Vineyard, and Farmers own 1850s Federal-style brownstone in Bostons Beacon Hill. The book is rounded out with a series of informative essays on the key elements of Farmers look, including creating a sense of place, the importance of travel, and collecting art. Ultimately the book illustrates how thoughtful, considered design can give new life to any home, and, in doing so, inspires readers to do the same.
