New Orleans designer and antiques dealer Tara Shaw shows how to bring heirlooms and European antiques into contemporary homes in Soul of the Home: Designing with Antiques.

Shaw has sourced French and European antiques for designers including Bobby McAlpine, Mary McDonald, and Bunny Williams. In her first book, she explains how to recognize and choose pieces with history, begin an antiques collection, and display finds in rooms shaped by their architecture rather than a single period style. Never-before-published interiors from her portfolio, color photographs of rare finds, and anecdotes from her favorite antique-hunting spots in Europe illustrate chapters on collecting, lake house living, bringing the outdoors in, and using antiques in modern spaces.
