Recycled Home

By Mark Bailey and Sally Bailey
Hardcover | 2017

Description

In this beautiful book, Mark and Sally Bailey of Baileys Home Store share their passion for rescued, repaired, reused, and recycled pieces. The acclaimed design duo reveals how to create stylish, sustainable interiors that celebrate the character and history of salvaged objects.

The Baileys' aesthetic is intentionally simple and stripped back, focusing on:

• The integrity and authenticity of materials

• Surface quality and natural patina—like chipped paint revealing layers beneath

• Juxtaposition of rough textures with clean lines

• Creative combinations of reclaimed materials with modern elements like stainless steel or concrete

Recycled Home is organized into practical sections:

1. Elements of Style: Explores the building blocks of the Baileys' distinctive look, including:

• Textures

• Storage solutions

• Wall and floor treatments

• Lighting techniques

• Display arrangements

2. Room by Room: Demonstrates how to apply these principles throughout the home, with special attention to:

• Living spaces

• Kitchens and dining areas

• Bedrooms

• Workspaces

• Children's rooms

This inspirational guide helps readers discover the untapped potential in rescued objects, showing how repurposed pieces can become the focal points of a home that is both environmentally conscious and beautifully designed.

Perfect for anyone interested in sustainable living, vintage finds, architectural salvage, or creating interiors with soul and history.
