Description
In Unfurled: Designing a Living Home, acclaimed plant stylist Hilton Carter invites readers into the heart of his home—a personal sanctuary that has evolved, layer by layer, to reflect his style, creativity, and love for plants.
Hilton takes readers on a behind-the-scenes journey through every room, from the tranquil primary bedroom to the plant-filled sunroom, the vibrant studio to the inviting guest room, and beyond. With his eye for design, he shares the inspiration that lies behind each space, talking the reader through the mood boards he creates when embarking on a room renovation and explaining the thoughts behind a design, both functional and decorative.
Hilton shares how each room has ‘unfurled’ beautifully over time, discussing how to choose colour and texture, offering expert advice on room layout, and showing how to use plants to breathe life into the home. Alongside personal stories and design insights, Unfurled is filled with practical tips and ideas for ways to recreate these looks in your own home, whether you’re working with a spare bedroom or a compact shower room.
With Hilton’s guidance, you’ll learn how to incorporate thoughtful styling, select the right plants for your rooms, and cultivate a home that's nurturing, dynamic, and alive.
