Travel with interior designer and stylist Caitlin Flemming and design writer Julie Goebel through 20 sophisticated homes of designers deeply influenced by their international adventures abroad.

“In Travel Home, the authors take readers on a visual journey, stopping to visit over a dozen creative homeowners—including the likes of Nate Berkus, Jeremiah Brent, Justina Blakeney, and John Robshaw.” —House Beautiful

A road map for bringing far-flung design ideas back home,
Travel Home shows us how to curate interiors that reflect our favorite places and experiences in ways that are beautiful and authentic.

Touring the homes of leaders in global design who share a deep affection for travel, the book explores interiors with influences as widespread as:
  • Marrakesh
  • Paris
  • Cuba
  • Tokyo
  • Portugal
  • And many more!
Flemming writes in her introduction, “Our hope is that this book will serve as an inspiration, a rare opportunity to learn from those who have traveled deeply and are experts in the fields of design. We have learned so much while making this book, and we hope you will experience the same revelations by diving into these stories of design and travel. While some of us may travel less, we can all learn to look at the world with fresh eyes.”

Vivid full-color photography by Peggy Wong is supplemented with insightful essays, interviews, and hardworking tips for cultivating your own global home. For globetrotters and armchair travelers alike,
Travel Home showcases the interplay between travel and design, revealing how we can take inspiration from the beauty we experience in the world and bring it into our everyday lives.

“The book is a study of how travel informs our taste.” ―Goop

    It's the best read, quick browse, well-received gift or gorgeous table ornament!

    I LOVE this book. It's so well done. I bought a handful of extras, and cannot wait to toss out as gifts this holiday season. It's so thoughtfully organized, inspiring and complete with interviews from each homeowner, which makes the tour of each gorgeous home that much more personal.

    It's clear that the authors put more than just a ton of work into their debut book; as a mother-daughter duo, their history together and passion for what they do best is warmly apparent.

    Brava, Caitlin Flemming + Julie Goebel! <3

    This book captures everything I love most in life: design, photography and travel. Admittedly, I purchased it at first based on how it looks on the outside, but I was so pleasantly surprised when I started reading it. I loved the window into each designer's life and how their travels impact their design. The tips after each section were a very nice touch, and helps put readers put into practice many of the design ideas captured in the book. And the resource index at the end was great. I found two places in Chicago that I didn't know about before and will definitely be visiting in the future. Overall a wonderful book. It begins and ends with a wallpaper like graphic design that envelops the book in beauty.

    This is an excellent and very inspiring book. The homes featured show real authenticity and talent by the homeowners featured. It is not a cookie cutter and trendy interior design book, it is much more than that: it has a soul and genuine sophistication cultivated over years of experiences and travels. It gives the readers tips on how to achieve that by being yourself and embracing all the diversity and personal aesthetics that make a well lived life.

    I absolutely love love and love this book, I love a good coffee table book especially on Interiors, I would love to buy them all, this was my last years birthday present to myself :D and I was not disappointed, I would recommend this book wholeheartedly.
    This is a collection of other peoples houses and how they live plus how it works for them and none of these interiors are pompous or pretentious, its almost like a decor magazine but without the adds. The interiors are very doable and you can see your own self also in a multiple of these homes and living these lives which is what makes this book so lovable! Definite Yes and do get this, you won't be disappointed
