An architect's guide to thoughtful home design ✨️ ❤️

As a fellow architect dedicated to maximising existing spaces, I can't recommend The Handbook of Home Design by Laura Jayne Clarke enough. Laura's insights resonate deeply with my own approach to architecture, especially her focus on making every square inch work smarter, not harder. Her book distils so many essential principles that every budding designer should know, from spatial planning to creating flow and functionality within a home. This guide not only affirms the choices and values of seasoned professionals but also empowers newer designers to make informed, impactful design decisions. Laura's passion and expertise shine through on every page, making this a truly inspiring, practical resource.
