INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
The long-awaited design book from Shea McGee, beautifully showcasing all that is possible for every room of your home.
Whether it’s through her thriving design business, Studio McGee, her popular Netflix series, Dream Home Makeover, or her online community of over five million followers, Shea McGee has shown the world how the principles of high-end design can be applied to any home. As the title of her new book suggests, designing rooms for maximum impact while also remaining approachable to any who enter is an art. But it’s also a skill that can be learned because it’s inside each one of us.
In The Art of Home, Shea takes us through every room of the house, starting with an explanation of process and then guiding our entryways, living rooms, kitchens, offices, kids’ rooms, and even our utility rooms. With step-by-step guides paired with her own design projects and the power of her personal stories, Shea helps us transform the most important parts of our lives and how we live.
What I love about design is the opportunity to dream and then will that vision into existence.
Join Shea as she teaches us to dream and then shows us how to make it reality. Her new book, The Art of Home, is as functional as it is heart-stoppingly beautiful and it will maintain a presence in your home for years to come.

Just yes.
I’m still in shock at how much i love this book. I’m obsessed. The quality is absolutely amazing. Just….. get it. I have very minimal words because it’s just a wow to me. To be honest i bought this for aesthetic decor and didn’t even plan to open it, but i did and i was not disappointed at all. Aesthetics 100000/10 quality 100000000000/10 and a 10/10 read. I will say, mine did come with a few blemishes so not in perfectly new condition but the others outweigh this so im not pressed.Just yes.

Excellent read (arrived in poor condition)
This book was a 5 star read for me!Shea McGee does a wonderful job of not only telling you how to arrange a beautifully decorated home, but also showing you how with a book full of stunning photos. I’m a visual person and it helps to see pictures of different styles and spaces so that I can recognize what I personally like, and what I don’t. What I loved most about this book was Shea’s practical tips on how to design a beautiful space (how to arrange throw pillows, considering the shape and texture of furniture and how to maximize the way each piece compliments each other, bringing in different textures, etc.). Not only is this book beautiful to look at and use as a decorative piece, but it offers so much beauty and practicality on the inside of the pages. If you’re looking for a wonderful resource on how to bring life and beauty to your home, buy this book!(The only reason I’m rating this item as 3 stars is because Amazon sent me a book in used condition. The cover had scuffs and oily smudges, and the back was badly stained. I was disappointed to pay $20 for a book that was in this condition. They sent me a replacement book that was in better condition, but it still had scuffs on the front cover. I wish Amazon would take better care when shipping books. This isn’t the first time I’ve had a smudged/scuffed book shipped to me. 😪)
