Rezension:

A look at some of the best book-filled interiors around the world . . . we couldn t help taking a little personal inspiration from the tome ourselves. Architectural Digest

Any book that combines our love for home decor with our love for books is a surefire winner. Bibliostyle shows off the real at-home libraries of home owners around the world, including writer Emma Straub and novelist Larry McMurtry. Real Simple

Nina s latest foray into the investigation of gorgeous interiors proves both beautiful and full of substance. As a designer, researcher, and writer, there is nothing I love more than a juicy library. This book took me into passionately personal places, spaces, and collections and made me not only want to decorate but also grab a great book. In this digital age, the analog library is not only truly beautiful but has enduring importance. Christiane Lemieux, founder and CEO of The Inside and author of The Finer Things and Undecorate

In this In stagram age there are few books that are visually juicy and engaging to get me off the couch, but Bibliostyle succeeds in a surprising and super fresh way. Here is a book that focuses on books and libraries, but communicates something so intimate and ineffable about the home that you can t stop turning the pages. This is the most perfect coffee-table book for this new age. Maxwell Ryan, CEO and founder of Apartment Therapy Media and author of Apartment Therapy

Nina Freudenberger s first book Surf Shack was and is one of my all-time favorite design books, so I couldn t be more thrilled with her new book Bibliostyle. As an ardent lover of books, and certainly collecting them, I found countless inspiration in the pages of Bibliostyle on beautiful built-in bookcases and designing and displaying book collections as art and decor accents. Bravo on another inspiring book! Victoria Smith, founder and publisher of SFGirlByBay

Nina s new book reminds me of the joy bo oks have brought me throughout my life. The visual display of knowledge a library brings and how much I have to learn and can learn inspires me. This book celebrates that love and the tangible romance of books. Get ready to fall in love all over again. Rebecca Atwood, textile and wallpaper designer, author of Living with Pattern and Living with Color

Nina has done it once it again and in a real genius way at that. From a design perspective, books are a nonnegotiable styling element that I ll incorporate into any space by layering and stacking to mix colors and textures, and Bibliostyle perfectly captures the rich meaning of why books are integral in our homes and to our world.
