A Masterclass in Interior Design
For more than 25 years, Meridith Baer has helped define the art of home staging, transforming tens of thousands of properties into extraordinary homes and pioneering an industry that forever changed the way homes are presented and sold.
The Making of a Home is Meridith Baer’s first monograph—a beautifully crafted hardcover featuring more than 200 stunning photographs of exceptional homes, from waterfront retreats and hillside estates to rustic hideaways and Meridith’s own Los Angeles residence.
More than a collection of beautiful interiors, this inspiring volume offers an intimate look into the principles that have guided Meridith’s work for decades. Through thoughtful insights on furniture placement, color, lighting, mood, and maximizing every space, this is both a masterclass in interior design and a celebration of the industry Meridith helped pioneer.

"People do not fall in love with a floor plan or a number of rooms. They fall in love with how a space makes them feel when they walk through the door—and that feeling is what I have always tried to create."

It All Started with a Plant Storage Dilemma
Meridith Baer Home began by accident in 1998. After the home Meridith was renting in West Los Angeles was suddenly sold, she found herself searching for storage for her furniture and more than 250 potted plants. At the same time, a friend’s home had been sitting on the market for over a year.
Meridith suggested an alternative to leaving it empty. She furnished the home using her own pieces, showing buyers how the space could truly be lived in. The result was immediate. The home sold just days later to a Hollywood studio executive for $500,000 over asking. Luxury home staging was born.
Whether you're designing your dream home, preparing a property for sale, or simply looking for inspiration, The Making of a Home offers timeless ideas for creating spaces that are as beautiful as they are livable.
