Editorial Review
Stunning - Lonny "What I love so much about this new book is the way that real life, the outdoors and family history play into each interior. . . . the homes and lessons in this book are all about finding ways to translate the things, people and places you love into beautiful moments at home." - Design*Sponge "Susan Hable is the most colorful person I know. The way she sees the world-in amazing hues inspired by the often overlooked or unexpected-has translated into incredible interiors. This book offers page after page of incredible color and texture that will inspire even the most committed color-phobes to seriously consider embracing pink." -Rima Suqi, Columnist, New York Times Home Section "I love Susan's sensibility. This book captures every-thing she's about: the modern and the rustic, the bold and the subdued. My favorite moments in the book were discovering her personal inspiration for color and design-the leaves, thorns, arrowheads, maps, salt, and butterflies." --Andy Spade, Founder of Partners & Spade "I have been waiting years for a design book this exciting. Every single page is full of impeccably curated color inspiration and practical information to help you make each color palette work for your home. I love the way Susan uses nature as the ulti-mate jumping-off point and resource-I can't wait to try some of these ideas in my own house." -Grace Bonney, Founder of Design*Sponge
