One Man's Folly: The Exceptional Houses of Furlow Gatewood
“The book tours each of Gatewood’s four homes and beautiful gardens, his collections of pagoda figurines and blue-and-white porcelain, and lessons on antiquing. There is so much to see and learn from this self-taught designer. The book bursts with pictures and fondly recalled memoires.” –Romantic Homes “…a glorious compendium…a glimpse into the private and enchanted world of Furlow Gatewood…a must-have for designers and dreamers alike!” –What is James Wearing? “One Man’s Follyis a fascinating look at how the nonagenarian had deployed his vast trove…the rooms are held together by Gatewood’s masterful approach to texture, color, and scale, and by his abiding principle that he only buys what he loves.” –Elle Décor “…One Man’s Follyis as much a visual treat as it is a lesson in southern hospitality. All I could think as I read it was that I was equally eager to read it again…One Man’s Follywill dazzle your senses and make you reconsider how you entertain, what possessions you accumulate and how you spend your days.” –Life in a Venti Cup
