 REVIEWS

The American designer acquired a storied French country estate in the Loire Valley and decorate it to the nines, leaving out only the snobbery. It's a lovely story by someone living and sharing his dream." The New York Times

 "A triumph of warmth and beauty."- Deborah Needleman, T Magazine

 

"Equal parts fantasy and yet completely down to earth." - Susanna Salk, author Priveleged Life

 

"Filled with beautiful images that ignite feelings of fantasy, envy and escapism all at the same time." - Forbes.com

"This book is a must have!" - BelgianPearls.com

  

"Even amid all that detailed splendor, the most endearing aspect of Corrigan's magnum opus is this: Far from being a vanity project or a showcase for his design prowess, Corrigan always intended to share his chateau with others. He is nothing if not a gracious host, and I'm already angling for an invitation." - 1stdibs.com

  

“Perhaps the best part of the book is that we are given a running commentary of why Corrigan has made some of the decisions that he has…After reading the book, one can only wish that the invitation was a real one.” - Sarah Hyde, Decorex.com 

 

Corrigan’s book goes into detail without sacrificing intriguing candor. That history coupled with capital-M-majestic interiors photos, mean it’s really no surprise that the country manse has become a darling for national design magazines since the book’s release last fall. -curbed.com
