Relaxed Luxury

In fashion, there is quiet luxury. In interior design, it’s time to meet “relaxed luxury,” an of-the-moment décor movement coined by renowned architect and designer Chad Dorsey, who details what it means to live laidback (yet still elevated) in Relaxed Luxury. The book showcases over a dozen of the longtime Texan’s most notable projects over the past two decades, complete with advice (everything from paint colors to space-saving tricks), insight, and mood boards from Dorsey on how to translate the style of haute relaxation in your own space. Readers will tour penthouse pied-à-terres, historic homes, and modern bungalows around the Lonestar State, discovering a powerful voice in the American design canon and originator of a wholly original aesthetic that has captured the imagination of a nation.

“Relaxed luxury is the idea of living casually with things a person loves to touch and feel in a way that is approachable and not precious. Relaxed luxury is understated,” says Dorsey. “Often quiet, it can go unnoticed, but the user with a discerning eye will appreciate the details and the soothing feeling.”

Book Care Guidelines

To preserve the beauty and longevity of your book, we recommend the following:

* Handle with Care: Always use clean, dry hands to avoid transferring oils or dirt onto the pages and cover.
* Protect from Sunlight: Avoid direct sunlight, which may cause fading or discoloration over time.
* Store Properly: Keep books in a cool, dry place, upright on a flat surface, and away from heat or moisture.
* Dust Gently: Use a soft, dry cloth or feather duster to clean the cover and page edges.
* Open with Caution: Do not force the spine flat, especially on new books, to prevent damage to the binding.
* Avoid Food and Drinks: Keep books away from liquids and food to prevent accidental spills and stains.
* ⁠Less Spine Stress: Bookstands support the spine without forcing it flat, which helps prevent cracking or warping.
