SPACE MATTERS is a unique design book that will demystify the question of why some spaces work and some don't; it presents interior design based in the ancient Indian design science of Vastu.

Mountain houses offer the perfect winter refuge: double-height living rooms warmed by crackling fires; cosy bedrooms under the eaves, beds piled high with down comforters; rustic kitchens with rough-hewn wood beams. In the spring, when the weather turns warm, doors and windows are flung open to take in views of verdant valleys and pristine lakes.
