About this title

Synopsis

Popular designer Okin’s first book celebrates her deft use of color and pretty, fresh take on traditional interiors that are warm, livable, and elegant.

Since opening her eponymous firm a decade ago, Okin has established herself as a powerhouse in the design industry. Her interiors are both approachable and sophisticated and have helped her garner an ever-growing social media following, as well as a place on House Beautiful’s Next Wave list and Luxe and House & Garden’s Gold Lists. 

Okin’s first book is an exploration of her belief that the best homes reflect the stories of their inhabitants. The houses featured include projects from across the country—from Southampton to New Canaan, Palm Beach to Park Slope—as well as Okin’s own house in New York. As a design journalist in addition to her interiors work, Okin has written the book herself, and it’s rich with advice and inspiration for creating spaces that are as welcoming and personal as they are functional. Whether it’s a young family who just purchased their first home or a design connoisseur with an extensive library, this book will appeal to everyone seeking to transform their house into a warm and inviting home.
