My Style

Mydeco is a UK based version of Lastminute , which is a website that helps people decorate their homes.  Mydeco hasn’t been launched yet, but you can enter your email address to get news about mydeco and enter a contest to win a £1000 room makeover.

As www.mydeco.com is based in the UK, I’m not sure if it will have a US version, as Lastminute does. With mydeco.com, Hoberman hopes to help users make the right decisions about their home decor, and get validation from others regarding their taste, in order to avoid room style disasters.

Lane Fox will act as director of mydecor.com and Hoberman is the company’s executive chairman.

mydeco will be along the lines of Curbly and HomeAndTell, both online communities providing resources, tools and feedback regarding home improvement and decorating.

With a little imagination and creativity–and without hiring a professional–almost anyone can transform a small living space into a comfortable and stylish environment. Whether decorating a dorm room, an apartment, or a little cottage, what we strive for is a look and feel that expresses our individual personalities.

Part style guide, part idea sourcebook, this handy volume–designed to meet the needs of real people with real budgets–is packed with smart ideas, basic design principles, and enough inspiration to get you off the sofa to make it happen.

In her lively, informative text, design guru Marisa Bartolucci takes readers inside 33 small homes from cities across the U.S. to reveal how a strong sense of style–rather than design know-how or unlimited resources–is the most effective tool for transforming an ordinary cramped living space into a smart yet functional private sanctuary.
