by Betty Lou Phillips (Author), Dan Piassick (Photographer)

The timeless appeal of French-country style, a gracious mingling of sophistication and comfort, spans generations.

FRENCH BY DESIGN reveals the secrets to creating a contemporary French-country look, including textiles, furniture, floor coverings, window treatments, colour palettes, wall treatments, and lighting, room by room, making it possible for everyone to recreate the look at home.
