Evoking memories of the past and aspirations for the future to create unique contemporary interiors.
Interior 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.

Gorgeous!
I was apprehensive about ordering this book as I havenât had the best success with Amazon as far as shipping books go. I was pleasantly surprised that this book was shrink wrapped in plastic, and overall in good shape. I wouldnât say perfect, but good. As for the price I am very pleased. This book is gorgeous And packed with inspiration!

Not much different than his Instagram feed
I admire Brian Paquette’s calibrated mix of patterns, textures, and welcoming earth tones, so I was excited for his first book.While it was interesting to flip once, it is not one I would return to very often as it has a strong degree of sameness to it, particularly if you’ve seen his Instagram over the years. I was actually surprised to see some of the same lamps and accessories used in more than one of the homes included.And some of his introductions to the homes contained a tad too much self-indulgent, ego-boosting commentary for my tastes. Let your work speak for itself.

BUY THIS BOOK!
I bought this book because I thought that it would match well stacked with my other coffee table books, and ended up pouring over every single page. This designer is an absolute artist and the book is thoughtfully written with beautiful pictures throughout (can they please come design my home?!). Tons of room inspiration along with being a beautiful coffee table book!

I was scrolling through the many books on interior design overwhelmed with choice.” At Home ” caught my attention because I liked the photograph on the front cover.Decided I will judge a book by its cover and purchased it.I thoroughly enjoyed reading about the authors career and swooning over the beautiful rooms he created.Credit to the photographer the photos are top notch…If you like soothing earthy tones in decor this book is a must.
