Cover Reveal!

I can finally share my new book

It has been a wild couple of months involving the weirdest, dystopian reason for a book delay ever (more on that some other time) but I can finally share the cover of my new book Home Matters which is being published by Quadrille on August 29th.

Isn’t she beautiful?!

I’ll share a more about the book over the coming months but in the mean time, here is a little snippet of what it’s about.

As an interiors photographer, Penny Wincer found that walking through a stranger’s home, listening to them explaining the history of the space, and the meaning of precious objects, was one of most joyful aspects of her work. And in Home Matters Penny does exactly that, taking us through the houses of 13 artists, designers and writers, inspiring us to reflect on how we want our own homes to feel.

Through beautiful photographs, interviews and Penny’s own reflections on the homes that she has lived in over the years, Home Matters brings together multiple perspectives, all centred on how we create homes to meet our needs. Looking at an eclectic range of spaces that are not often included in these conversations, each chapter of Home Matters considers a different aspect of what goes into creating a home, inviting the reader to reflect on their own memories, needs and constraints.

This book is for those who want to think deeply about their homes, as well as be inspired by the beauty and joy that others have created within their own spaces. Through asking us to consider our pasts, our current needs and to examine the values we want our homes to reflect, Home Matters shows what is possible when we look within ourselves to turn a house into a home. And when we let go of the idea of the perfect home – one that can never be achieved – we can embrace the home that works for our lives as they are.

You can pre-order Home Matters now using the links below or going to your fav online bookshop (more on why pre-orders are so vital to authors another time).

You can also ask your favourite independent bookshop to order it for you! But don’t forget to keep hold of proof of purchase because there is a fabulous pre-order competition coming very soon…….

I can’t wait to share more behind the scenes of this book over the coming months.
