The Soulful Cottage

Far from folksy, today?s cottages are simple yet layered, airy yet enlivened with personal details. Learn to recreate this soulful style at home with best-selling author Fifi O?Neill.

The Soulful Cottage embraces cherished ideas ? home, family, comfort and style ? that are near and dear to our hearts. From bustling cities to idyllic rural settings and seashores, Fifi explores an approach to decoration that is both current and familiar. In the first half of the book, Elements, she considers the essential ingredients: tactile materials, soft colours, handwoven textiles and homemade items. She then visits 12 enchanting homes, including an upcycler?s paradise in California, a coastal hideaway in New England and a jewellery designer?s elegant abode in New Mexico. Though always warm and inviting, these cottages have a quiet sophistication that is collected, curated and considered. Their owners share an appreciation for heritage and a fresh, inspiring take on cottage living. The Soulful Cottage looks beyond passing trends to highlight varied, thoughtful interiors crafted with intention and authenticity. It is easy to understand why this enduring aesthetic is here to stay.
