The Meaning Of Home by Jeffrey Alan Marks

What does your home mean to you? Is it a fulfillment of dreams? A stepping stone to something else? A lab for trying out ideas? A burden? A life's work of collecting and arranging beautiful things? Your independence by getting your first apartment? A tent under the stars?

From The Meaning of Home by Jeffrey Alan Marks

Jeffrey Alan Marks has a book out (foreword by Suzanne Goin, photographed by Douglas Friedman), with a collection of some of the massive body of work he has executed over the years. We love our JAM from Bravo's Million Dollar Decorators. His good looks (he put himself through design school by modeling), and his beautiful interior design work are well known to design devotees.

Jeffrey Alan Marks is known for his beautiful high end coastal look - and he designs great rooms too :-)

Love the symmetry and the bright art work - Interior design by Jeffrey Alan Marks as seen in his book "The Meaning of Home" just published by Rizzoli

This book has some of the most beautiful photography of interiors that I have ever seen. Jeffrey penned the text himself, and it is well written. You hear his voice as we have come to know it, and he shares details. details, details.

Though known for his coastal look, JAM does everything - Love the deep saturated color in this dining room

This is a book to get lost in over and over again. Though known for a high end coastal look, JAM delivers beautiful, layered room in every genre. Put this one on your get-it list.

This room is expertly layered by Jeffrey Alan Marks

Again, the beautiful symmetry that is a trademark in the design work of  Jeffery Alan Marks

From "The Meaning of Home" by Jeffrey Alan Marks - Every room is a master class

Rizzoli published the book. They are such an amazing publisher of books on home decor and design. I love their format. They always have tons of photos, and good writers. I have several volumes with the Rizzoli "R" on the spine, and I am thrilled to add The Meaning of Home to my collection.

One of my favorite photographs in "The Meaning of Home" - a master class in styling

Rizzoli liked it too - It's on the cover!

  3. I pre-ordered mine months ago, hopefully it will arrive this week. Can't wait!

    I still have withdrawals from Million Dollar Decorators and am very sad that it isn't being renewed. It was such a great show.
