“Home Sense: Simple Solutions to Enhance Where and How You Live,” by Eduardo Xol with photography by Doug Myers (Rayo/HarperCollinsPublishers, $24.95)
Fans of Eduardo Xol will recognize his style and expertise from the television series “Extreme Makeover: Home Edition.” Here, Xol shares room-by-room ideas for creating a personal indoor sanctuary. As a trained musician, Xol takes an artistic approach to design, and believes special attention should be given to color and composition so that all of the pieces in a space work together to portray the occupant’s personality. His strategies include painting the insides of dining room windowsills a light color to cast a sunny glow.
