The Versatile HomeUnique & gorgeous spaces for all aspects of life

Format: Hardback

Condition: Very Good — £6.22
What do the conditions mean?

Our conditions mean the following:

  • New - a brand new book
  • Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
  • Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
  • Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
  • Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

Today, the humble house is expected to be more versatile, fulfilling every aspect of our lives. The Versatile Home explores gorgeous spaces from where to work (in the Focus chapter), entertain (Gather), embrace our interests (Create), relax (Unwind), and rejuvenate ourselves in Recharge.

Written by Interior Designer Emma Mckelvie and Artist Wendy Merry, The Versatile Home's unique approach is that it is written through the eyes of designer and client. It features many of Emma's projects, along with other beautiful homes. At the heart of The Versatile Home is Emma's toolkit, giving insider tips and advice on colour, pattern and texture, as well as guides on creating inspiration boards, styling surfaces and adding those all-important finishing touches. Her 'style star' will help you identify your interior preferences, arming you with the confidence and knowhow to tackle your own design projects.

Emma Mckelvie is a Stylist, Interior Designer and former Editor of interior glossies including Home Journal in Hong Kong. Her work has featured in British Elle Decoration, Living etc. and You magazine. She was also an art director and designer on TV shows including Grand Designs. Selling Houses and House Doctor. Her private commissions have taken her all around the world. She lives in the New Forest with her partner Chris, and their dogs Margo & Si.

Wendy Merry had a successful career in business before moving to Lymington, Hampshire and setting up her own company, Cobbled Art. She is now an accomplished artist and lives with husband Bill and their two cats, Charley and Sox.
