Maria Gabriela Brito's new book, Out There: Design, Art, Travel, Shopping

The following interior design inspirations are excerpted from Maria Gabriela Brito’s new book, Out There: Design, Art, Travel, Shopping:

I have dared to be different and be inspired by things everywhere.

Besides contemporary art, I look for visual stimulation and emotional connection from people, movies, places, and fashion.

Sometimes my clients are my inspiration. Everything flows from their colorful lives.

Strong, iconic women who have left their creative marks on the world constantly inspire my life and my work.

Fashion has always been a source of inspiration for me.

Fabrics, proportions, materials, accessories, patterns, and color combinations have all had a definite impact on the way I put together my designs.
