Gail Abbott is an author of no less than nine books on interior styling, her work regularly appears in a huge range of 'the glossies' including 'Ideal Home' and 'BBC Homes and Antiques' - she has travelled the world, discovering the secrets of how to compose beautifully elegant rooms, how to harness natural light to create wonderful spaces and capturing the beauty of all things modest and humble.

Together with world class photographer Mark Scott, Gail has travelled extensively including Greece, Florida, Miami, Cape Town and beyond capturing the beauty and truth of furnishing your home with everyday and ordinary things. Things that are, in themselves, imperfect - but which together create the perfect room.

A love of vintage is evident throughout her work. Simple pleasures, strong textures and pretty yet practical period homewares abound. Through her range of books we're invited to consider all things and their merits, how seemingly unrelated and individual pieces, often those worn and well-used, can be brought together, producing uncomplicated yet dramatic room settings that impress and inspire.
