Living in the Lowcountry, we are familiar with the coastal aesthetic and the designers who’ve made themselves at home perfecting it. As one of the most beloved tastemakers, Amanda Lindroth delivers another captivating compendium of her signature work, Island Dreaming, a gorgeous collection of her colorful, coastal, and fittingly dreamy designs. With a soaring career that includes every major city as well as the recently completed Dunlin hotel on the Kiawah River, Amanda will share about her 70’s Floridian upbringing, and its influence on every aspect of her work, from boldly colored fabrics and straw matting to canopied beds and rattan with cane seating. Complete with colorful illustrations by Carlisle Burch, the book, like her first, is definitely one not to miss.
