Reviews
From the very first pages of this debut book from AD100 firm Pierce & Ward, readers are in for a treat. However, it may not be for the minimalist-minded. It kicks off with an ode to the art of more, and everything that follows--including the graphic design of the book itself, which features ornate lettering, bold stripes, and lots of historical patterns--lives up to that ethos. Designers Emily Ward and Louisa Pierce spill their style secrets--they favor antique Persian and Turkish rugs, and avoid using too much wood in an interior, as it can veer into a lodge vibe --while giving readers a glimpse into certain favorite projects, including the homes of A-list clients Melanie Griffith, Josh Brolin, and Kate Hudson. --ARCHITECTURAL DIGEST.COM Pierce & Ward are a design duo that has burst onto the scene in the last few years with Hollywood clients including Leonardo DiCaprio, Brie Larson, Kate Hudson, and Dakota Johnson.

Within a few years, they had been tapped by homeowners including Leonardo DiCaprio, Dakota Johnson, Colin Hanks, Tobey Maguire and Jennifer Meyer, Lily Aldridge and Caleb Followill, Brie Larson, and Emma Roberts. Emily lives in Los Angeles, California, with her partner, Giovanni Ribisi, and their twins. Louisa lives in Nashville with her husband, Austin Scaggs, and their two children.
