Equal parts biography and interior design study， A Room of Her Own features twenty extraordinary women and takes us on a private tour across the world into their personal and professional domains。 Among them are painters， sculptors， writers， chefs， designers， jewelers， curators， makers， and directors。 While each woman has navigated a unique path， they are united in their refusal to play by the rules of others。


Taking in the likes of the grand， sweeping halls of a castle in the Austrian countryside， a convent-like property in Mexico， and a cozy home on the banks of the Hudson， this book celebrates the homes， philosophies， design aesthetics， and practices of these inspiring multihyphenates。
