PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Caldwell, co-host of HGTV's Boise Boys, brings his design expertise to the page in his excellent debut, a guide to "infusing soul—life, heirlooms, character, all the things you love, and, ultimately, your story—into every aspect of your home." The first section, "Timber & Love," highlights a chic industrial home, a mid-century modern abode, and a spacious mountain spot. "Natural & Organic" showcases a historic firehouse-turned-home, an Italian-style house, and a charmingly eclectic homestead filled with knickknacks; "Classic & Cozy" takes readers through a comfy Craftsman bungalow, a small but bold cottage, and a Spanish-inspired estate. Caldwell posits that intention is the key to good design and notes that he begins every project with three core objectives: finding the focus ("to entertain, to rest, or to work" are some options), creating the feel, and emphasizing the details. He also shares how he designed his own place: "From the functionality of the floor plan to the selection of the finishes, making a space that would work for my family was my goal." Vivid photos effortlessly pull readers into Caldwell's stylish world. HGTV fans will devour this.
