Description
Shaping Spaces showcases interior designer Claudia Lambert's work, having moulded the homes of families, couples and individuals around the world.
Each project is different – some grand, some modest, some playful, some serene – but all share the same philosophy: that design should elevate daily life, reflect the people within it, and create spaces that feel as alive as the stories they hold.
Featuring 14 of Lambert's one-of-a-kind projects from around the world, Shaping Spaces unpacks the different elements to consider when transforming your home – shape, colour, materials, art and layering. This book gives readers the inspiration and tools to help them evolve their own homes into spaces that reflect their story.
