I am a firm believer in the use of black in design, I am sure we all know that. I think it gives that classic clean edge that every space needs. I put this book on my Christmas list this year (I am a design book junkie) and I completely LOVE it! I am amazed by how many of the photos in the book I have used here on the blog.
Celerie Kemble did a great job in bringing some great interiors together and she even has a chapter devoted to my sweet grey!! So I have still got to read more of it but I thought I would let you all know that it is a great hard copy of some really great design photos out there with some great content on design itself brought to you in a very down to earth way.
Also, I added a little design library link on the bottom of the blog if you are looking for some great inspiration in hard copy most of my favorites are there!

Love this look and I've been slowly painting all of our inside doors black, it's a great look!
The last image just about does me in. Every detail is perfect and inspiring!
Thanks for the heads on the book....always looking to add a great new design book to my growing collection. Am a big big fan of black anything in the home and those images are just beautiful...
Hi! I'm a fellow blogger (I don't think I've ever left you a comment though). This post is well timed for me because I spent the better part of the day last week trying to acquire this book. First store sold out. Next store $50 in store, but only $35 online -- realized after making sure they had it driving to the store and than walking up to the register. Decided to save the $$ and order it instead. Hopefully my copy will come in the mail today. I can't wait.

Black adds so much crisp sophistication to a decor palette. I love the last image with the fabulous Library contrasting the black and the dark wood floors!

Black and white are lovely. That little room full of books looks like paradise to me. May i go in? :) Was just thinking the other day about how elegant our Pacific Northwest sky is with its shades of black, white and gray...

Wouldn't you just love to have that walk-in library? It is stunning. I don't really know what to say about the painting in the first image...interesting!
Celerie? Can a name get any more adorable!? Love everything about this!
What stunning interiors - first a thought I would live the library - what of course I do - and then I saw the florring, the desk chair, the desk and the styling itself. It's just beautiful.
Thanks for sharing - I need to pick up the book. The office (last image) is amazing!
Love the black and white post...and that library room, black gloss diagonal flooring...wow

I ordered the book a few days ago. Can't wait for it to arrive.
Black and white really is a chic combination when it comes to interiors.
Thanks for a great blog!
