Interior-design sensation Frida Ramstedt changed how we think about designing a harmonious home with her book The Interior Design Handbook. Now she brings that same authoritative and comprehensive focus to this complementary guide that's all about the most essential and functional items within your home.
In The Furnishing Handbook, Ramstedt shares insights and advice on how to make sure the furniture you buy doesn't just look good but is also well-made, long-lasting and, most importantly, comfortable to use every day. Always attentive to the minute details of the form and function in living spaces, Ramstedt helps us look at furnishing with an expert eye, taking a holistic approach to arranging a home and thinking about the flow of a room as well as the relationships between pieces of furniture.
