Review by Library Journal Review
Over the years, comedian and talk-show host -DeGeneres, who is the executive producer of HGTV's Ellen's Design -Challenge, has lived in and renovated close to a dozen homes in Southern California. Here, in more than 200 color photographs, she shares seven of her domiciles, including her Beverly Hills home that was featured in Architectural Digest. She provides a tour of each, which range from adjoining apartments to a ranch house, explaining her approach to the design and concluding with a list of what she learned from each space. The homes of the professional interior designers with whom DeGeneres has worked are included and show a decor that reflects her own style of neutral-colored, light-filled interiors that combine modern furniture with traditional pieces. The businesses the author visits for inspiration and furnishings are also mentioned. VERDICT Written with -DeGeneres's typical candor and wit, this book will spark interest with her fans. © Copyright 2016. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc.
