AT HOME WITH TOWN AND COUNTRY: SEE HOW THE OTHER HALF LIVES

Photos courtesy of Hearst Books
Featuring 30 homes and the stylish dwellers who live in them, Hearst Books' At Home with Town and Country by former editor Sarah Medford lived in spaces. A fair amount of projects from this stylish bunch of fashion designers, art collectors and philanthropists have been featured in the magazine before, but this is the first time they can all be seen in one place. I can finally throw away all the back issues I have been hoarding!
Peek inside to see how everyone from Spike and Tonya Lee, artist Alex Katz to Reed and Delphine Krakoff live with style. Showing art - heavy collectors homes with Lucien Freud's to concrete modern homes in Texas and everything in between, there is something for everyone in this voyeuristic 384 page tome.
It is a never ending question- how do you store shoes with style? Manfredi Gherardesca's line up of shoes for every day of the week sit in his London dressing room.

That looks beautiful! I wish I could incorporate something like that into my new home. I just moved here thanks to South Carolina Real Estate.

Marisa, I'd just like to start off by saying you are extremely talented! I really love your passion and appreciation for glamorous interior decoration. Although I could never be as good, I am going to try to incorporate some of the spunk I see here encapsulated in your pictures into my South Carolina Real Estate properties. All of the homes are beautiful on the outside, but I would like for them to be just as beautiful inside. I can't wait to read your book and get started!
