Bulgarian-born, New York-based interior photographer Bilyana Dimitrova recently released her new book, To Each His Home: Inspired Interiors as Unique as Their Owners.

In the book, Dimitrova takes readers on a tour of eight extraordinary homes that unabashedly express the personalities of their free-spirited owners. Dimitrova's carefully crafted color photographs, accompanied by brief interviews with each homeowner, create vivid portraits of these one-of-a-kind American spaces...

From the book's website, "Highly varied in nature, the distinctive and captivating homes featured in this book have one remarkable thing in common: none are the product of a professional interior designer. The homeowners in To Each His Home do not rely on professional training or draw inspiration from shelter magazines. Instead they allow their own likes and dislikes to guide their choices of furniture and fabrics, colors and configurations. "

To celebrate it's release, Spoonbill & Sugartown books in Williamsburg are hosting a book signing and reception this Friday, November 7th, at 7 pm. Interestingly, a Flickr group has also been set up for the book, inviting submissions of reader's own homes.

This is a wonderful book -- it has inspired me to do some wild screaming painting in my apartment.
