Couldn't load pickup availability
Step inside the serene and beautifully layered world of artist and designer Josh Young with this inspiring exploration of creativity, personal style, and modern classicism.
Organized around five guiding principles—palette, texture, form, layers, and nostalgia—Artful Home reveals how Young applies his artistic point of view to every aspect of his surroundings. From designing a room and styling a vignette to arranging flowers, choosing textiles, and entertaining family and friends, he demonstrates how thoughtful details can create a home that feels both refined and deeply personal.
Beautiful photography offers an intimate look inside Young’s Washington, D.C., townhouse and Sycamore House, his previously unseen country home in Virginia. The interiors are presented alongside his portraiture, collages, abstract paintings, ceramics, floral arrangements, and other creative work, illustrating how a distinctive aesthetic can carry across many different forms.
More than a tour of two exceptional homes, this book encourages readers to develop their own creative point of view. It is a beautiful addition to the library of interior design enthusiasts, art lovers, and anyone drawn to collected rooms, timeless style, and homes with a true sense of soul.
Why We Love It: Josh Young’s rooms feel elegant and sophisticated without appearing overly formal or designed. We love his thoughtful mix of art, antiques, texture, and personal objects, as well as his practical framework for creating a home that feels cohesive, meaningful, and entirely your own.
