Carson Ellis - Home

It's World Book Day tomorrow and following on from my last post on the fabulous John Rylands Library it seemed like a good time to take a look at our new favourite book here - Carson Ellis's Home. The fabulous book takes us on a journey through the many different types of homes from houses in the country, flats in the city, homes on buses, boats and even a shoe. At the end we find the artist herself in her studio looking at the objects which inspired the book. The illustrations are beautiful and unique. Along with Alemagna's Do Nothing Day Carson's Home most certainly has pride of place on our book shelf.
