Creative Spaces by Geraldine James

From London and Milan to New York, we visit the houses, apartments and studios of people who all inhabit very different creative worlds. Amongst others, we glimpse inside the contemporary townhouse of renowned fashion designer Betty Jackson, the family home of Gisela Garcia-Escuela, one of the leading lights behind the Anthropologie stores, and are given a tour of the combined studio-archive-home of Italian designer Barnaba Fornasetti. Divided into chapters on Individual Eclecticism, Art-Loving Modernists, Living with Pattern and Colour, Modern Industrialist, Carefully Curated Purists and The Archivist, their very titles give an inkling of the different styles and treasures to be found within the four walls of each property. The home owners range from well-known names from the worlds of art, design and fashion, to private individuals, and range from a compact London flat to a farmhouse in upstate New York, but all have one thing in common – their living spaces are inspired and inspiring, unique, individual, personal, and never, ever run of the mill.

Geraldine James started her career in fashion as a contemporary designer buyer, and from fashion she moved to home and gift. Geraldine soon developed a passion for collecting and finding unusual and beautiful things. She now works as a home buying manager at Selfridges and, as part of her role, spends time travelling extensively to find exciting new products for the store. She is the author of Creative Walls (ISBN 978-1-907563-15-7) and Creative Display (ISBN 978-1-908170-16-3). The author is based in Putney, London.
