Reviews
'Home Life Around the World' is a beautiful book focused on gorgeous photographs of personal homes of a variety of different professional creatives. I had assumed this would be a coffee table-type book with large photographic spreads and minimal actual written content, but I was completely wrong. Each of the creatives is given several pages to share their story, thoughts, and reflections about their homes and what they hold. This makes for really fascinating reading. Laura Hainsworth This is a book that you won't finish. It lingers with you and whenever you revisit its pages, it feels like meeting old friends again - and getting new inspiration from them each time. Stefan Olsson The Home & Gardens section of Publishers Weekly, the February 12th issue, sees a shift of emphasis in this genre from aspirational eye candy to authenticity. Books giving people the confidence to create houses that tell their stories. A healthy trend to my way of thinking, and ""Home Life Around the World"" is definitely a part of it. Paul B Beautiful photographs illustrate this book - which bring to life the features of the homes that their owners have created. An inspiring and satisfying read! Zina Bowey

Author Information
Anita Martinez Beijer is a Swedish author, photographer and interior designer, passionate about homes. After more than seventeen years in the profession, she felt a need to delve deeper. During 2015 and 2016 she travelled the world on a quest. What does a home mean? What makes a living space a place we call home? How do we relate to and interact with it? What qualities in our homes do we treasure the most? What dreams and wishes do we have related to our homes? This quest took her around the world, where she met an amazing collection of individuals from different walks of life. All with their own stories and destinies - and very personal homes. She has captured the homeowners and the stories behind their homes both in writing and, as she is also is a photographer, in images.
