Jeffrey Alan Marks: The Meaning of Home

This fall is turning out to be a great season for all of the design bibliophiles out there! So many fabulous design titles are being released over the next couple of months and Jeffrey Alan Marks' first book, The Meaning of Home (published by Rizzoli) is at the top of my list. I love Jeffrey's chic, polished take on effortless California style. His work veers more towards clean and masculine, but he always includes a touch of glamour, which of course, I absolutely love. The various projects featured in the book run the gamut in terms of style ranging from "Breezy, Tailored, and Steady to Brave and At Ease" and while each project is reflective of the individual client's tastes and needs, every space has a definitive "JAM" vibe. The Meaning of Home is filled with stunning images of Jeffrey Alan Marks' most recent projects and personal anecdotes on just exactly what it means to be home.
