As a best-selling author and a dynamic award-winning designer who demonstrates an entrepreneurial edge in business, Victoria has an innate sense of how people and their surroundings interact.
In this book she reveals her insights into what our home and work environments truly need to encompass to promote wealth in all areas of life. Victoria inspires readers to raise their awareness and appreciation of the way we all live and interact with each other, our surroundings and the planet.
Readers will master the skill of embracing their true essence and expressing their themselves through the purposeful creation of their surroundings.
Kate St James FDIA is an interior designer, president of the Australian Architecture Association and Managing Editor of the Home Design series at Universal Magazines. Having operated her own design practice for many years prior to entering publishing, Kate is a well-known personality in the architecture and design world in Australia. It was these qualities that prompted Victoria to ask Kate to write the foreword and a chapter for the book. Kate’s passion for sustainability in design and the way we live is the focus of her contribution, elevating our awareness of environmentally sustainable design leading towards a more sustainable future.
Kate comments, “We live in a fast-paced world where time is limited due to the myriad activities we need to include in our day: work, study, children, relationships, household chores, shopping, cooking and entertaining, travel and exercise. Taking time out to do all the research for a home design project can see you putting it off forever, or finding that it’s just too hard. That’s where ‘Create Your Dream Sanctuary’ comes in – the hard work is done for you by someone whose life has been spent helping others create their perfect living environments.”
