House & Style

The marketplace is flooded with books on how to build a successful relationship, and inundated with illustrated volumes on interior design. But no single book, before now, has combined the two subjects, offering compelling visual inspiration and practical advice on how partners can create a home that's a true reflection of their identity as a couple. A long-overdue treatment of a subject that touches millions of people, Living Together examines the elegant lifestyles and extraordinary creativity of fifteen couples who have managed to create enviably harmonious, visually stunning living spaces. Among them are artists April Gornik and Eric Fischl at home in Sag Harbor, New York; interior designers Allegra and Ashley Hicks and the London townhouse they lovingly decorated together; and architect Philippe Jonathan and his wife Patricia Tartour, and the unique home they created in an old limestone quarry in Provence.
Living Together offers advice and valuable insight on one of life's most difficult challenges: how two individuals with different tastes, habits, and lifestyles can blend their, sometime opposing, styles into a single harmonious living arrangement that reflects the passion of the couple.
