Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Allen Gutwirth Chief Operating Officer of acclaimed New York Space Planning, Interior Design firm Elaine Lewis International has just published How To Renovate Your Innerself now on Kindle. Looking at life through the lens of my twenty five years as working with both clients such as The Rolling Stones, John McEnroe, Sidney Poitier, Tom Jones, I and my designers create interiors that would bring harmony to peoples' lives once they entered their homes. I discovered that harmony starts within a person and not through things that surround them namely their homes. The essence of the book is that people should view both their inner and outer self as a great INTERNAL and EXTERNAL RENOVATION PROJECT; unfortunately we put more time in furnishing our homes then in our physical and emotional self. Using this approach I try to empower people to make a life altering change. This item is printed on demand.
