OLD BRAND NEW

A deeply personal and compassionate look at both home ownership (and renter-ship!) by interior designer, photographer, and Instagram star Dabito.

Blogger, photographer, artist, tastemaker, and passionate vintage hunter Dabito is beloved on social media for his creative use of color, space, and maximalist design style. OLD BRAND NEW offers readers actionable advice to layer your space with meaning through unique decor, whether you're signing your first lease or renovating or buying your first home.
Illustrated with photographs of many of the spaces around the country Dabito has designed as well as spaces and travel that serve as his inspiration, each chapter is supplemented with how-to guides.

From weekend-friendly projects large and small, to hanging a gallery wall to redoing your bookshelves, to repurposing furniture you already own for maxiumum effect, to choosing plants for your space, to designing your dream outdoor patio space. Along with easy daylong projects, Dabito also tackles deep renovations, with his down-to-the-studs ADU (accessory dwelling unit) project in LA that was changed from an awkward laundry and storage room into his dream art studio.
