Meet James Farmer

James Farmer is a Southern author and interior designer known for his ability to create beautifully familiar and welcoming homes. To James, a home engages all of the senses—the pleasing pairing of colors and materials, the feel of the doorknob warmed by the sun, the smell of fresh laundry, the sound of the closing door, and the taste of supper on the table. Through his design firm, James works with clients to truly create a home.

James is the author of best-selling books A Time to Plant; Sip & Savor; Porch Living; Wreaths for All Seasons; A Time To Cook; Dinner on the Grounds; A Time To Celebrate; A Place To Call Home; and Arriving Home. His most recent publication, Celebrating Home, showcases the details and beauty of celebrating life’s special moments.

Effortless elegance, comfort, and rich traditions of the past combined with contemporary life are the hallmarks of James Farmer Designs. Though his work can be found throughout the country, James proudly has built his business in his hometown of Perry.
