This revised and updated edition of The Wabi-Sabi House recounts the history of this aesthetic philosophy and reveals ways to introduce it into your home.

The ancient Japanese philosophy of wabi-sabi is about appreciating simplicity and letting go of the superficial -- the perfect antidote to modern consumerism and perfectionism. In 2004, author Robyn Griggs Lawrence helped popularize wabi-sabi in North America with her book The Wabi-Sabi House.

In Simply Imperfect, Lawrence shows that wabi-sabi is far more than a style of home décor. It's a state of mind -- a way of living modestly in the moment, stripping away the unnecessary, and finding satisfaction in everyday things. Tracing the rich history of wabi-sabi from its Zen Buddhist roots to the present day, this beautifully-illustrated book also offers tips on:

• Clearing clutter and blocking noise

• Integrating salvaged and recycled materials

• Making and growing things yourself (or supporting local artisans who do)

• Taking time and space for self-reflection
