Produktbeschreibung

As an interiors photographer, Penny Wincer found that walking through a stranger’s home, listening to them explaining the history of the space, and the meaning of precious objects, was one of most joyful aspects of her work. And in Home Matters Penny does exactly that, taking us through the homes of a variety of artists, designers and writers, inspiring us to reflect on how we want our own homes to feel.Home Matters looks at an eclectic range of homes, as well as hearing from experts who can help to guide us through the choices we make. Through beautiful photographs, interviews and Penny’s own reflections on the homes that she has lived in over the years, it brings together multiple perspectives, all centred on how we create homes to meet our needs. Looking at spaces that are not often included in these conversations, such as rented and council homes, side by side with homes we are more typically used to seeing in the pages of magazines, each chapter of Home Matters considers a different aspect of what goes into creating a home, inviting the reader to reflect on their own memories, needs, constraints and values. This book is for those who want to think deeply about their homes, as well as be inspired by the beauty and joy that others have created within their own spaces. Through asking us to consider our pasts, our current needs and to examine the values we want our homes to reflect, Home Matters shows what is possible when we look within ourselves to turn a house into a home. And when we let go of the idea of the perfect home – one that can never be achieved – we can embrace the home that works for our lives as they are.
