MORE BEAUTIFUL

We all need beauty in our lives – especially now – so this is a pertinent title, the second, following Beautiful, from interior designer Mark D. Sikes, a proponent par excellence of classic American-style decorating. Think wicker, blue and white, layers of pretty patterns and relaxed, easy living. Chapter headings – Traditional, Coastal, Country, Mediterranean and, of course, Beautiful – define a raft of rooms that fairly burst with happy vibes. Mark D. Sikes, Rizzoli, $90
