No Place Like Home
In No Place Like Home, Madeline writes eloquently about her recent work. With insight and wit, she walks the reader through her design process, from initial vision to execution. From the meticulous renovation of Cedric Gibbons’s Streamline Moderne house to a newly built Montana ranch to a Mediterranean-inspired residence on the California coast, each project is informed by Madeline’s keen understanding of history and craftsmanship as well as her skill with scale, proportion, and balance. These, along with her unexpected combinations of furniture and fine-art and decorative elements, result in richly layered interiors that feel authentic to their period and place, while remaining always relevant, modern, and beautiful.
