Bohemian Soul

“New Orleans may just be one of the most unique cities in the world, boasting its own distinct architectural and decorative style that speaks to the bohemian spirit. Designer and writer Valorie Hart and photographer Sara Essex Bradley have teamed up to document historic residences filled with family heirlooms and character, celebrating New Orleans’s unique soul.” — VERANDA

“Bohemian Soul: The Vanishing Interiors of New Orleans by Valorie Hart celebrates the unique history and style of the Crescent City. In a world that is increasingly cookie cutter and fast-paced, Bohemian Soul highlights what can be learned when you slow down and appreciate the eccentric.” — AT HOME IN ARKANSAS

“Perhaps no American city has both its history and its funkiness on such lively display as New Orleans—and that’s just what we can see in public spaces. Behind the cocktail bars, parade routes, and po’boy shops, New Orleanians’ homes are layered with cracking plaster, art, antique porcelain, and stories. A gorgeous new book, Bohemian Soul: The Vanishing Interiors of New Orleans, aims to capture and celebrate that spirited balance of elegant and eccentric—and protect what’s left of it in the face of change.” — GARDEN GUN
