About the Author
Maggie Toy is the editor of Architectural Design, and has published widely on minimalism, interiors, and architecture.
From Booklist
Toy, executive editor of Architectural Design magazine, writes that a much more livable version of minimalism has emerged from the 1990s style she describes as "extremely expensive, exactingly detailed," "stark," and marked by the near "absence of human life." In this lavishly illustrated volume, Toy draws examples from international homes to present her view of an updated minimalism: a livable, often colorful style that leaves more room to express the personality and hobbies of a homeowner. In sections devoted to various areas of the home, Toy offers basic, practical ideas aimed at amateur designers working on their own houses: "Start with walls and floors and add elements piece by piece." Toy's charge to seek "tranquility and freedom from conventional distractions" will strike a chord with many readers interested in creating more dynamic, simplified, clutter-free living spaces for themselves, while the beautifully reproduced interiors show a wide range of possibilities and styles. An extended resource section concludes this handsome, informative title for design enthusiasts. Gillian Engberg
