SynopsisIt's the ultimate escape fantasy: Trade in the rat race for life on a tropical island and all the languid luxury that it evokes. For India Hicks and David Flint Wood, the dream became reality when, after high-profile careers, she as a fashion model, he as an advertising executive, the couple left the city behind for the Bahamas. Five years and three children later, the husband-and-wife team have impeccably restored three houses and one hotel. Fusing traditional European design with Asian, African, and Caribbean influences, the resulting interiors reflect their love of intense color and their keen sense of style, inherited on India's side from her father, the renown interior designer David Hicks, and further enhanced by the family's travels.In "Island Life, the secrets of these sumptuous, unique homes, used as locations for Ralph Lauren, J. Crew, and "Vogue magazine, among others, are revealed in intimate detail. With panoramic color photographs, David Loftus captures not only the eclectic combinations of antiques, flea market finds, and modern furnishings, but also the overall ambiance of the tropics. For those who share David and India's dream, this is where to start planning.

  • Island Life? For Only One Family

    The pictures of the authors' home were beautiful. Unfortunately, the title suggested there would be pictures of different residential (or even commercial) spaces displaying tropically designed spaces, how to source tropical bakeware, cookware, drapes, and/or furniture. What was presented was nothing more than the authors' residence. While attractive, the content simply did not live up to its title.

  • Great reading for Island lovers.

    The book deceived Island living beautifully. The author has in contrast to her English life a very down to earth lifestyle.
