More about the book
For nearly five decades, Barbra Streisand has been a prominent figure in American entertainment, showcasing her extraordinary voice alongside her talents in directing, acting, and music. In her first book, she reveals another dimension of her artistry: her taste and style, which have shaped her stunning homes and collections. This work focuses on the architecture and construction of her latest residences, reflecting her long-held dream of a personal sanctuary, a desire rooted in her childhood experiences in a small Brooklyn apartment with her family. The book celebrates her love for American architecture and design from the eighteenth to the twentieth centuries, featuring her own photographs of the beautifully decorated rooms, furniture, art collections, and exquisite gardens she has cultivated on her California coastal property. Alongside glimpses of her homes, Streisand shares cherished childhood memories, the evolution of her style, and the significance of collecting in her life. This intimate tour offers fans and design enthusiasts a rare insight into the world of one of America's most beloved stars.
