Nomad at Home: Designing the home more traveled

$40.00

Hardcover

Nomad at Home dissects the desire to wander the globe from the point of view of the design-led traveler, those for whom “it is a better thing to travel hopefully than to arrive.”

“There are few countries I have visited without consulting the local real estate agent’s window or poring over the free property magazine. Whether in Puglia or Provence, I am already imagining my new life there; the basket I’ll carry to market, the dress I’ll change into for an apéro, the flea market at which I will buy my furniture, the secret cove where I’ll swim.”

In Nomad at Home, Hilary Robertson, a compulsive wanderer, introduces readers to 10 unique locations and shares the tales of various nomadic tribes. The Adopters have permanently left their homes to start anew elsewhere, while the Escapists are constantly on the move, maintaining bases in multiple locations. The Serial Wanderers bring elements of their travels back home, creating a fusion of different cultures in their own space. The book not only showcases diverse homes around the world but also includes a nomadic sourcebook curated by Hilary, providing readers with shopping recommendations in various countries mentioned in the stories.
