Bring the Outside in
Award-winning interiors blogger Abi Dare, author of The Soft Minimalist Home, offers a new take on biophilic design using organic materials, colors and textures to bring the outside in. Nature provides ample inspiration for our homes, and a biophilic approach to design has been shown to enhance our mental and physical wellbeing. But there is more to it than adding lots of plants. Here, Abi Dare explores how to create an inviting home that makes subtle references to the natural world. The book is divided into six sections: color, materials and texture, shape and pattern, light and dark, layout and view, and finishing touches. In each, Abi provides practical tips and presents inspiring case studies, from a city apartment in Rotterdam to a family home in London and a farmhouse in the West Country. Palettes go beyond green, incorporating terracottas, pinks, peaches, blues, and ochers. Wood, stone, plaster, and linen offer a tactile experience, whether sleek and modern or rough-hewn and rustic. Soft curves, flowing lines, and imperfect forms can be used to mimic nature, tempering straight lines and sharp angles. Windows let in sunlight and frame our views of the outside world. Throughout, Abi highlights that biophilic design is not just an abstract theory, but an accessible concept that can make a big difference to our homes and lives.

A global survey of 250 of the most creative women practicing interior design from the beginning of the twentieth century to the present dayThe history of women's involvement in interior design is rich and varied. It is a discipline where women enjoy an equal standing with their male counterparts, yet it is typically framed as a design practice especially suited to women, secondary to the heroic role of architect or furniture designer.This timely survey explores the ways in which women have shaped the built environment beyond the confines of the home, revealing their careers as true tastemakers of the twentieth and twenty-first century. Making Space shines a light on the diverse and influential work of 250 women who design interiors - well-known, unsung, and emerging - from more than 50 countries.The featured designers represent myriad styles, from flamboyant maximalism to artfully arranged minimalism. There are the big names, such as Rose Uniacke, Kelly Wearstler, and Brigette Romanek; pioneers, including Dorothy Draper, Sybil Colfax, and Elsie de Wolfe; and those who have been almost entirely written out of history.Beautifully designed and illustrated with hundreds of striking photographs, Making Space will inspire anyone who cares about the spaces within which they live.Designers featured include: Sophie Ashby, Sof穩a Aspe, Gae Aulenti, Kelly Behun, Madeleine Castaing, Sibyl Colefax, Athena Calderone, Ilse Crawford, Olayinka Dosekun-Adjei, Dorothy Draper, Nathalie and Virginie Droulers, Shahira Fahmy, Beata Heuman, Katie Lockhart, Yana Molodykh, Tekla Evelina Severin, and Pamela Shamshiri.

Adopting the point of view of the "planetary gardener" requires personal sensitivity, scientific rigor and practical experience. Beyond what nature can do for us, let's ask: What can we do for nature? Let's widen our focus, but above all, let's adopt a code of conduct and take immediate action on all fronts. The book features the work of gardeners who work on vast landscapes as well as very small gardens, and who are also involved in movements of resistance and activism. The final section of the book helps and inspires the reader to get started on their own part of the planetary garden.

Dogsitivity
Dogs can be highly sensitive to the sights, sounds, and smells from their environment. They can even be highly sensitive to the moods of their family members. Highly sensitive dogs can be perceived as timid, withdrawn or easily frightened, but they can also come across as reactive or aggressive. They might pull on the leash or bark excessively. They may attack your broomstick, react furiously to traffic, and exhibit peculiar habits that leave their caregivers puzzled and sometimes desperate. These dogs come in all shapes and sizes, but they share one thing in common: conditioning methods such as obedience training or traditional behavior therapy do not contribute to the dog's long-term well-being. This book is an invitation to let go of old ways, and explore a new way of living with dogs based on insight, empathy and equality.Dogsitivity uses real-life examples and the latest research on high sensitivity in both humans and dogs to inspire a more conscious, empathetic approach to the dogs we share our lives with. This revised edition focuses on our responsibility as loving caregivers, and inspires the reader to create a healthy living environment and lifestyle for both dog and human.With contributions from Geert De Bolster, Nadieh Cuijten, Dr. Pascale Trimpeneers, and Veerle Van Vlierberghe.This book has sold thousands of copies and serves as required reading material for several courses on dog behavior therapy in Europe.

Dominique
The case of a psychotic 14 year-old boy presented in its full form by the renowned French psychoanalyst. With transcription of comments and reactions made by the child, his parents and the therapist. Francoise Dolto stands alongside Jacques Lacan as a leading light of the Other French school, her research was integrated into schools, hospitals and popular media at a national level. First published in 1971, reading Dominique now gives a granular portrait of an adolescent's subjectivity and its familial and state inheritance. As such the book is an historical example of how the secular Republic of Metropolitan France produced forms of thought.
