Expertly designed and decorated homes don't necessarily feel like havens to their dwellers or reflect, inspire, and celebrate what is essential about their inhabitants. Lauded designer and architectural conservator Xorin Balbes created the eight-stage SoulSpace transformation process to help his clients do just that. Through the stages — assess, release, cleanse, dream, discover, create, elevate, and celebrate — readers explore not only the design of their living spaces but also their own interiors: the ways they think, feel, and sense. Through client stories, exercises, Q & As, and bountiful photos and illustrations, Balbes guides readers to decode clues to what they wish for, deny, and need to move forward. Empowered with this self-knowledge, they are free to declutter, refresh, and enhance their living spaces. Suitable for any budget and for one wall or one room, apartments or mansions, Balbes's wonderfully unique technique nurtures and transforms both souls and their spaces.

      Balbes, co-owner of the interior design firm Temple Home, explains his eight-step holistic approach to interior design. Using his experiences with his clients' and his own homes as examples, he first discusses the elimination of clutter--including the psychological reasons why it accumulates--then continues with an explanation of how to discover and create one's own personal design style. Although no photographs are included (books such as Grace Bonney's Design*Sponge at Home and Christiane Lemieux's Undecorate can fill that gap), this volume will provide the impetus to begin the process for those seeking a clutter-free decor that reflects their taste and nurtures the soul.
