Tamsin Johnson

ISBN: 0847870723
Category : House & Home
Languages : en
Pages : 270
Book Description
The first book from acclaimed Australian interior designer Tamsin Johnson, known for her fresh interiors that evoke luxurious ease and coastal elegance. Tamsin Johnson’s international high-end residential projects reflect her signature ability to combine pieces from across decades and continents in ways that feel understated and natural. This knack for appearing effortless brings the ultimate level of sophistication to her work. Johnson favors elements of surprise and a sense of play in her designs, as evident in contrasts of scale, the bold use of art, and the sculptural nature of the furniture she selects or commissions. Her spaces celebrate comfort, character, and user-friendly design, and this philosophy is tangible in her showroom, where a veneration of European heritage is balanced with characteristics of modern coastal Australia. Under Johnson’s artful eye, traditional pieces become unexpectedly lighter, and a sense of luxurious ease pervades. In a trade which requires an eye for historical value, the objects Johnson sources and collects to accent her interiors have contemporary appeal—everything feels relevant and persuasive, as if even the most formal of objects could sit comfortably by your bedside. Johnson gracefully shares her ideas, images, and stories to illustrate these principles for readers, resulting in a book that is both a rich visual resource and design reference.

Book Description
The young heroine, Tamsin, has capabilities that resemble the beginnings of super powers but are in reality things anyone can accomplish if they don’t know they can’t, and some people in this world already do. The book is written to depict characters that are in part typical of their natural age so readers can relate to them. It is set mostly in New Zealand. This first book sets the stage for the formation of the team which will fight conspiracies to gain control of the new United World Government thus preserving the new world peace. The story starts with two children, a girl and a boy, both found abandoned, one in America and one in New Zealand. The children are about 2 years old. The unexplained illness of one starts the family caring for him searching for answers. The girl has been adopted in New Zealand, her parents killed in a car accident and is now cared for by her adoptive older sister. The children are identical and very unusual. The families meet and come together looking for answers. The answers are not simple. The children are genetically engineered, designed for nefarious purpose and those who created them, living under cover of a powerful cult, want them back. Book one covers the abduction of the children, their development, their escape and the fight to stop the plans of the men who stole them. It includes government involvement and conspiracy, international security and the developing relationships of the people involved. It is written in three parts. The first, with the children up to their abduction at age 9. The second begins 5 years later as the children escape. The third is the battle to stop the cult leader and destroy his plans to hijack the election of the first One World President
