The Bookshelf: “Inspired By…” From California Interior And Textile Designer, Kathryn M Ireland

Author:

The new book “Inspired By…” from California interior and textile designer, Kathryn M Ireland, is not your typical design/coffee table book. Instead, it’s more of a celebration of friendships that Kathryn has fostered over the years, and it’s their homes and design that we end up becoming inspired by in this book.

Pages 60-61 (Michael Bruno’s bedroom) – Tim Street-Porter

“It is about the friends and colleagues whose individuality and passion for design have inspired my life and work,” shares Kathyrn.
