You are your stuff! This book is about embracing
everything you own and showing it off on your walls.
Whatever your taste, it's about celebrating the
beautiful, the eccentric, the simple. In a world where
trends and styles are dictated to us, Sarah Bagner,
better known as Supermarket Sarah, encourages readers to
believe in their own styles and ideas. Here Sarah
travels the globe, visiting cosmopolitan locations in
Tokyo, London and Stockholm, offering up inspiration and
variety as she illustrates novel ways in which people
use their own walls to display themselves and their
''treasures.'' She visits the homes and studios of
designers and collectors, viewing the displays of
minimalists and hoarders. The walls range from the
quirky to the romantic, from vintage to brand new.
Whatever is displayed, and however it is displayed,
everything has a meaning for its owner. From collections
of supermarket receipts, records and toys, to
chandeliers and antlers, whatever it may be, Sarah loves
a story. Items only have the value that you put on them
and Wonder Walls explores the ideas and thoughts behind
people's objects and why these objects, when adorning a
wall, help us discover ourselves.The walls featured here
are all revealing, amusing and thought-provoking, and
will inspire you to look at your own collections with a
fresh eye. |
