Nomad at Home dissects the desire to wander the globe from the point of view of the design-led traveller, those for whom ‘it is a better thing to travel hopefully than to arrive’.‘There are few countries I have visited without consulting the local real estate agent’s window or poring over the free property magazine. Whether in Puglia or Provence, I am already imagining my new life there; the basket I’ll carry to market, the dress I’ll change into for an apéro, the flea market at which I will buy my furniture, the secret cove where I’ll swim.’ In Nomad at Home, compulsive wanderer Hilary Robertson showcases 10 unique locations and tells the stories of different nomadic tribes: the Adopters, who have left home forever and made a life elsewhere, as well as the Escapists, always on the move, with a base in two, three or maybe even four locations. Then there are the Serial Wanderers, who simply absorb the DNA of any given destination and bring it all back home; creating Provence in Pittsburgh with ingredients gathered on their travels. There are more ways than one of satisfying a wandering eye. As well as offering inspiration from homes all over the globe, Nomad at Home also contains champion shopper Hilary's nomadic sourcebook, which allows readers to hit the ground shopping in destinations all over the world, with an address book for every country covered, every story told.

In Inside Stories, Hilary Robertson reveals a multitude of ways to curate and arrange those objects and possessions that make up the stuff of life, from treasured artworks and decorative accessories to everyday objects such as hats, baskets and bicycles.In the first chapter, How to Arrange your Stuff, Hilary considers four different approaches to creating arrangements – intuitive, narrative, practical and curatorial – and shows how each one can be achieved. She considers the variety of display locations available within the home – walls, mantelpieces, windowsills, chests of drawers, tabletops – and suggests how to make the most of them with decorative vignettes. Next, in Stories Told by Real Homes, Hilary casts her stylist’s eye over interiors that fall into five different styles – Neatnik, Bohemian, Naturalist, Sculpture Vulture and Noble Salvage. Some people are magpies – they love stuff; finding, collecting, and displaying it – while their opposite, the minimalists, are on a mission to contain or tame it. The ideas in this book will appeal to magpies, minimalists and everyone in between. Inside Stories is a fantastic new edition of The Stuff of Life.

Interiors stylist and author Hilary Robertson reveals how to use materials, textures and finishes to stunning effect in the contemporary home.Materials are the foundation of every great interiors scheme, and each brings its own unique qualities: the tactile warmth of brick, the natural grain of timber or the gleam of polished metal. However, with so many to choose from, finding the right materials for your home can be overwhelming. In Materialist, renowned stylist Hilary Robertson first considers the beauty of Stone, Wood, Concrete, Plaster, Ceramic, Fabric and Tile – their distinctive traits, the variety of finishes available and how they can transform your home. Hilary then steps inside 15 remarkable interiors, all defined by the creative and expressive use of materials. Emerald-green zellige tiles add bohemian flair to a Moroccan riad. In London, an interior designer has blended the original architecture of her Victorian villa with Brutalist raw oak and concrete surfaces. And a writer’s eco-friendly retreat in New York’s Hudson Valley uses plywood, cork, corrugated metal and even straw in its innovative construction. Filled with amazing original photography, Materialist is an inspiring guide to the building blocks of home.
