The Sensual Home: Liberate Your Senses and Change Your Life by Ilse Crawford.
This illustrated interior design book explores how the atmosphere of a home is shaped by the full range of human senses, focusing on the emotional and physical experience of everyday spaces rather than on decorative trends alone.
Organized thematically, the text moves from an opening section on how to \"liberate your senses\" into chapters that consider harmony and balance, hearing, comfort and texture, touch, space and proportion, the \"sixth sense\" of intuition, energy and spirit, sight, light and shade, taste, sustenance and love, and smell.
Throughout the volume, Crawford blends reflective essays with practical ideas about materials, color, light, sound, and scent, encouraging readers to design homes that feel nurturing, sensual, and authentic to their own lives.
The book features rich color photography, with special photography by Martyn Thompson, and distinctive page layouts that integrate images, quotations, and typographic design to create an immersive visual narrative.
Back-of-book resources include a database section, useful addresses for sourcing materials and furnishings, and a detailed index, making this volume suitable for design professionals as well as homeowners interested in lifestyle and decor.
