The Alchemy of Design considers the interior vision of two talented designers whose approach is inspired by a restrained, classic style juxtaposed with vibrant edges of ethnic and modern elements. For those to whom contemporary stark minimalism goes too far, this is an enduring, sophisticated and modern look that does not require reassessment with each season. The Hicks' style is free-flowing and organic, their advice on how to improve the fabric of an interior being both inspirational and easy to follow. The final section of the book concentrates on a series of case studies showing the reader a chain of before-and-after-sequences which highlight the simple things you can do to transform the interior of your home.

Ashley Hicks is an architect and decorator. Allegra Hicks is a decorative painter and designer of fabrics, carpets and furniture.
