Have you ever wondered why a room just doesn’t work? It may be a quirky roofline or a niche that seems to get in the way of a cohesive design. But perfect for one homeowner may not be perfect for another. With the trained eye of an architect and the creative brain of an interior designer, Marie Flanigan looks at the various challenges that rooms present and offers solutions. In Flanigan’s newest book, The Perfect Room: Timeless Designs for Intentional Living, she identifies the challenges and opportunities of a space and addresses them in a way that readers can relate to. Her goal is to create rooms that are aesthetically pleasing, efficient, and work for the family. Flanigan shares thoughtful approaches to every decision ranging from building materials and architectural details to furnishings, color, textiles, accessories, and organization.
Having worked on numerous projects that span from traditional to contemporary, rustic to transitional, Flanigan has been tasked to think outside the box to deliver stunning results. The best houses are the ones that consider the light and location and marry the interior with the exterior in powerful ways, whether through pattern, color, the use of natural materials, or texture. This book is an approachable resource guide that marries timeless design theory with specific solutions achieved through years of experience. Flanigan’s spaces are thoughtful and beautiful and exude understated elegance.
