Book Excerpts: The Organized Home

The Organized Home

The Organized Home is not merely a practical book about labeling boxes and finding more storage space—it's about great design. It's also about living smart and living with style.

The organized home is a home that works, a place where bookshelves are orderly rather than overflowing, closet doors do not conceal chaos, and frantic searches for car keys are rare. If this isn't your home, it could be, with the help of this book.

In The Organized Home: Design Solutions for Clutter-Free Living, interior designer and lifestyle consultant Randall Koll and design writer Casey Ellis emphasize the intelligent and imaginative use of furniture and accessory choices to ensure that function goes hand-in-hand with good looks. This beautiful volume offers professional advice, surprising and clever solutions, insights into creating positive household habits, and inspiring full-color photographs detailing every room in the home.
