More Is More Decor - A Handbook For Maximalists: Banish the beige, ditch the drab and throw the interiors rule book out of the window

‘For me, maximalism is about using colour, patterns and textures in a happy and joyful way. It’s about showcasing your personality and the things you love, both in the way you dress and in the way you decorate your home. It’s decorating from the heart, going with your gut and not worrying what the neighbours will say.’ Siobhan Murphy

This first-of-its-kind interiors handbook encourages you to examine your wardrobe and discover the colours, textures, patterns and prints that bring happiness into your life, then shows you some clever ways to work these elements into your home decor.

A celebration of bold fashion and maximalist interiors, More Is More Decor showcases key maximalist influencers of the past and present, from Jayne Mansfield to Jonathan Adler, before demonstrating how fashion and other interests can inspire your interior design choices. Fully illustrated throughout with photos of Siobhan’s incredible art deco home, as well as all of her favourite influencers, it’s a feast for the eyes and a book that can be pored over or dipped in and out of.

With Siobhan’s guidance you’ll find the confidence to experiment and be bolder with your style. It’s time to banish the beige, ditch the drab and throw the interiors rule book out of the window.
