3 min readThe best interior books are part reference material, part decorative object, and part proof that you like to surround yourself with excellent taste. This season’s newest crop of design reads gives you plenty of reasons to clear a little room on your shelves, with stunning releases from some of the industry's most compelling talents, including Bunny Williams, Cathy Kincaid, Meg Braff, and more.
At Home in Virginia
Charlotte Moss
Through lush photography, archival imagery, and intimate storytelling, Moss details every considered corner of her Virginia home and gardens, from gracious entertaining spaces to a flower room.
Interiors: Curated Spaces from Start to Finish
Amber Lewis
In her third book, Lewis pulls back the curtain on what it takes to make a beautiful home, following nine projects from mood board to install while getting refreshingly candid on budgets, timelines, and the inevitable hiccups.
Memorable Rooms
Cathy Kincaid
For Kincaid, the secret to a memorable room is getting the bones right—and then having some fun. In her second book, the designer showcases projects ranging from a Sun Valley ski retreat to an East Hampton escape, revealing a deft mix of color, antiques, and glorious custom details along the way.
High Vibe Design
Sasha Bikoff
More is most definitely more in Bikoff’s exuberant ode to interiors with personality, where unlikely references—think Marie Antoinette meets Studio 54—collide with saturated color palettes, bold patterns, and a passion for individuality.
Gracious Interiors
Meg Braff
Braff’s particular brand of polish—bright, patterned, and ready for a good time—is on display in this tour de force, which takes readers from Maine to Antigua to her own home in Locust Valley, New York, where her knack for mixing traditional design with a lively spirit finds its full glory.
Living with Legacy
River Brook
For founders Leigh and Kevin Misso, a home is more than the sum of its parts. Their first monograph explores their distinctive approach, where new and old coexist, craftsmanship takes center stage, and every decision is made with an eye toward what will endure.
Decoration
Bunny Williams & Elizabeth Lawrence
An inimitable pair, Williams and Lawrence treat their first dual byline like a master class of sorts, detailing lessons in scale, pattern, and patina, with plenty of richly layered details woven throughout.
Soulful Maximalism
