Liess @laurenliess "Ali Heath understands that true sanctuary isn' t about having the
right things but about surrounding ourselves with what genuinely nourishes us. Cocoon
beautifully captures this essence of intentional living through spaces that prioritize comfort
connection and personal meaning over perfection." - Shira Gill @shiragill *** In her third
book Cocoon interior stylist designer and writer Ali Heath invites the reader to create a
home sanctuary that focuses on the human touch as an antidote to our fast-paced tech-driven
modern world. This way of decorating is so much more than just a look or style - it' s
about taking a holistic approach that draws upon all our senses not just the visual and
connects us more meaningfully to ourselves and our surroundings. In the past creating a
sanctuary was about the decoration of a few key rooms now it is about how the home as a whole
makes us feel. Cocooning is not about isolation or shutting down and does not have to mean
going off-grid - it is simply about tuning back into our emotions creativity and curiosity to
satisfy our need for shelter comfort and wonder. Photographed in inspirational homes around
the world - from small inner-city sanctuaries to spacious island retreats Cocoon celebrates
a design approach that speaks to the heart.
