In recent times, many of us have spent more time at home than ever before. Creating a home that instils a sense of calm will cocoon and protect us from the outside world, create a sense of wellbeing and make us feel truly nurtured. Calm will help you create a restful, restorative interior that draws you in and makes your shoulders drop the moment you walk through the door.

Sally Denning first explores the essential foundations of a tranquil, comforting home: calming and harmonious colours, textiles, patterns, lighting and decorative elements. She goes on to explore a mix of accessible real-life homes, ranging from city homes to country houses, new builds, apartments and beach houses. The spaces may be different, but they all share one thing: a timeless, soothing and restful atmosphere that is a pleasure to come home to.
