Big News! My Book in German!

I have VERY exciting news! As most of you know, Decorate is in the process of being translated into German and will be called Lust auf Wohnen -- I'm so happy that I'll soon walk into stores and find my contribution to Germany's interior design and decorating world on shelves, auf Deutsche! I thought I'd share the book cover and release date so you can tell all of your German friends who need a fresh new interiors book that this is the one to buy.

Decorate in German!


Lust auf Wohnen - Das große Ideenbuch
, or Passion for Living - The Big Ideas Book (or something like that), will be published by Callwey Verlag in Munich and I'm working with them to organize a book tour in Germany, with a launch party in Berlin, followed by signings and bloggers + creatives events in Hamburg, Hannover and perhaps Munich and maybe Frankfurt, too. :) I hope I can meet some of you, this will all happen in early October so I'll post the dates and locations in a few months.

"Mehr kreative Ideen pro Quadratmeter für ein Zuhause mit Persönlichkeit. Dieses Buch ist ein wahrer Schatz an einzigartigen Ideen für jede Wohnsituation – angefangen bei der Planung bis hin zu den liebevollen Details, mit denen die Wohnung einen eigenen Stil und besonderen Charakter bekommt. Raum für Raum wird der Leser in die elementaren Regeln der Raumplanung, in die Kunst der Gestaltung, verschiedene Stilrichtungen und gekonnte Stilbrüche eingeführt. Von der Lichtplanung bis zur Auswahl der Tapete ein großes Buch mit 1000 inspirierenden Ideen für alle, die ihrem Zuhause eine eigene Handschrift verleihen möchten."

It releases on September 21, 2011! :)

292 Seiten, 550 Abbildungen und Pläne, Format: 21 x 27, EUR 29,95 / SFr 43,50 and the ISBN number is 978-3-7667-1906-5. 

If you'd like to buy some for your shop, please contact me and I'll connect you with my publicist at Callwey! My email is holly at decor8blog dot com.

Yay, or shall I say, JA JA!

OH my goodness, I think this is my favorite one of your covers to date, and the title sounds like a kick-butt song by Nena. Congrats!
Congrats Holly! I will for sure tell my husbands family over there in Germany.

Oh, Holly, pleeease come to Frankfurt! I'd love to meet you (I'd probably be too shy to talk to you, but just seeing you would be great!)
And I can't wait to get your book! If you don't come to Frankfurt... will you be selling a handful of signed copies? I'd love that!
Congrats, Holly! That is terrific news.
Looking forward to seeing your tour when you come out to San Francisco!

Good for you, Holly. Congrats!
I already own the English version but this will be a great gift for my German friends.

I have a question for you: which picture editing software do you use for your blogs? I haven't found a great program yet for text, frames and mosaics that doesn't cost a fortune.

Thanks in advance,
Imke

Hi Holly,

I think your book could sell in Sweden as well, the cover is beautiful! I would love to translate it into Swedish if you decide to publish it in Swedish (I am a professional translator ;-)

Good luck,
Petra
PS: Lovely blog!

This is wonderful! Can't wait to get my hands on your book. As you know I am German, living in NYC and I'd love to see you in Berlin, maybe there is a chance.
Would love to get a signed copy, Holly
This must be truly exciting and congrats on your success!
It's a lovely title auf deutsch......
Liebe Gruesse und viel Glück!

Congratulations Holly! Yesterday I got your American book (a birthday gift from my parents: I guess it was quite a challange for them to get it from the US since I couldn't find the book anywhere in Poland)and I've been literally glued to it since the very moment I put my hands on it. I love everything about it: size, photos, text, editing, the choice of topics - yes, everything. You've done a great job with your team and I can recomment the book to anyone: those who love decorating and those who are afraid of it.

Englisch oder deutsch - both work for me!
