Women have long identified with the expressive personalities and mythical powers of the Greek goddesses. Now they can extend the goddess metaphor beyond their spiritual and romantic lives to their favorite living spaces. Goddess at Home draws from the fascinating stories of 7 Greek goddesses to provide decorating ideas and themes, from the sensual and alluring to the strong and serene. Through quotations, stories, and gorgeous photos and images, this book conveys the unique personality of each goddess and pairs her with the room or rooms in which she commonly dwells. Packed with fun and fashionable ideas, Goddess at Home shows the reader how to use symbols, forms, and rituals to create sensuous bedroom sanctuaries inspired by Aphrodite, Goddess of Love, Sensuality, and Beauty; cozy living rooms infused with the warmth of Hestia, Goddess of Hearth and Home; serene offices inspired by Athena, Goddess of Wisdom, Discernment, and Leadership; and more. Applying the legend and lore of the 7 sisters to home decorating, this unique book shows how women can express the spirit of their "goddess within" in any home space.
