Reviews

ELLE DECOR'S 17 New Design Books We're Reading This Spring: "In her second Rizzoli volume, London-based architectural designer Tara Bernerd draws on nearly 25 years of globe-trotting hospitality projects to explore how travel informs the way she designs."

"This ethos exemplifies the signature of Tara Bernerd Partners: globally informed yet deeply human, bold yet timeless. There is clarity without rigidity, richness without excess. The dialogue between structure and softness creates interiors that resonate emotionally while remaining rigorously composed. As Bernerd explains, “We start every project with a unique take, in this instance, looking at something dynamic with a contemporary feel, yet embracing an artisanal touch. This means bold statements, rich colorways and reflecting the architecture with defined shape.” It is this philosophy—where craftsmanship elevates modernity—that sets the stage for spaces designed not just to be seen, but to be felt and remembered." — MODERN LUXURY: INTERIORS

"...an example of shimmering wisdom from architectural designer Tara Bernerd who has gifted us with more design lessons in her second book A DESIGN JOURNEY." — HELLO LOVELY STUDIO

"Known for interiors with a powerful sense of place, Bernerd draws on a lifetime of travel to create rooms that feel immersive and deeply human. Her second book is beautifully illustrated with recent projects, from a sun-dappled summer home in Ibiza to a Riviera Maya resort that blends vernacular architecture with modern comfort. Along the way, Bernerd’s meticulous eye shines in the details—carefully chosen books, candles, glassware and trays that elevate everyday moments and invite readers to bring the poetry of their own wanderings home." — MODERN LUXURY: INTERIORS

"London-based designer Tara Bernerd returns to the literary world with her second book, illustrating how to create transportive interiors that feel like an escape from daily life through industry advice and vivid imagery. The volume features remarkable projects from across the world, including a sun-filled Ibiza summer home and a Riviera Maya resort." — VERANDA
