Reviews"From the very first pages of this debut book from AD100 firm Pierce & Ward, readers are in for a treat. However, it may not be for the minimalist-minded. It kicks off with an ode to "the art of more," and everything that follows--including the graphic design of the book itself, which features ornate lettering, bold stripes, and lots of historical patterns--lives up to that ethos. Designers Emily Ward and Louisa Pierce spill their style secrets--they favor antique Persian and Turkish rugs, and avoid using too much wood in an interior, as it "can veer into a lodge vibe"--while giving readers a glimpse into certain favorite projects, including the homes of A-list clients Melanie Griffith, Josh Brolin, and Kate Hudson." --ARCHITECTURAL DIGEST.COM

SynopsisThe whimsical, layered, incredibly chic, and livable interiors and the fresh and original insights of the coolest design duo fill every page of this treasure chest of a debut interiors book. Every Pierce & Ward home tells a story. Emily and Louisa believe that there is a beauty in the unfolding of a room that takes the eye dancing from one piece to the next, swirling over velvets of peach and gold, gliding over glass and marble, and stopping to take in the homeowner's precious sentimental favorites. As the designers for such Hollywood powerhouses, supermodels, and rock stars as Brie Larson, Leonardo DiCaprio, Dakota Johnson, Kate Hudson, and Karen Elson, Pierce & Ward artfully blend classic elements and fanciful touches, creating an irresistible kaleidoscope of patterns, textures, art, and objects. Stately striped wallpaper mixes with French florals. Brass-lion bookends sit beside trays inlaid with glinting mother-of-pearl. Milk-glass globes hang down hallways like glowing moons to guide one's path. Humble finds from eBay and lovingly worn textiles mix with museum-quality art and family photos. This book will teach readers about organized abundance and un-gaudy decadence, with a dash of restraint for good measure: it's an evocative and inspiring ode to the art of more., When Louisa Pierce and Emily Ward design a home, their goal is to make it appear as though the person has lived there for a long time.
