This Must Be the Place

In This Must Be the Place, interior designer Chloe Redmond Warner explains how to design your home in a distinctive, personal way that is strikingly beautiful, playful, unforgettable-and yes, a little bit weird.

Little Women on Acid . . . 1970s Sofia Coppola in Palm Beach . . . Stuart Little Goes Big . . . These are the fantasies designer Chloe Redmond Warner concocts for her clients. Now, in her debut book, Warner demonstrates how these beguilingly creative inspirations germinate into delightfully layered interiors. Though each of Warner's interiors is aesthetically distinct from the next, the homes she features in This Must Be the Place embrace ornament, tactile materiality, pattern play, sentimental totems, and exuberant color choices.

Formally trained in architecture and known for infusing wit, whimsy, and a bit of weirdness into her designs, Warner has a singular perspective that marries strategic space planning with uniquely personal touches. The result is homes that each have their own defined feeling and serve as meaningful backdrops to all of life's experiences-without taking themselves too seriously. With confidence and a sense of mischief, Warner infuses her interiors and this book with a poetic mash-up of effortless and refined, pretty and perfectly unexpected.

In This Must Be the Place, Warner expands her design briefs, breaking down the elements-spread between art, architecture, and decoration-that, together, instill a carefully calibrated atmosphere. With playlists, pop-culture references, and stunning photography that perfectly showcases Warner's personality and her wonderful interior design work, this book is perfect for those looking to inject more creativity, fun, and color into their homes.
