Friday Favorites: Design Book

Looking for a little design inspiration? You got it! Today for our Friday favorite, we are sharing with you some of our favorite design books at the moment.

1. Clinton Smith – At the moment, three new tomes are wrestling for space on my nightstand, and I can’t get enough of any of them: Rooms to Inspire in the City by Annie Kelly, architect Bobby McAlpine’s The Home Within Us and designer Thomas O’Brien’s American Modern.
2. Kate Abney – I know it’s cliché, but Domino: The Book of Decorating is such a wonderful resource for someone like me who’s just starting out. Celerie Kemble’s To Your Taste is great, too. It really shows how to create transitional interiors that reflect individuality—with a Southern spin. I saw Bazaar Style at an outdoor market once and almost bought it—it’s such a neat collection of eclectic spaces. Oh and Vogue Living: Houses, Gardens People. What a dream.
3. Rachel Cardina Lasserre – Lately, I have been on a French style obsession reading French Home by Josephine Ryan. I also look forward to reading photographer Todd Selby’s new book The Selby is In Your Place as soon as I get my hands on a copy!
4. Heather J. Paper – Admittedly, I’m fickle when it comes to design books; I tend to love the one I’m with. At the moment, it’s Alessandra Branca’s New Classic Interiors. But ask me tomorrow and it may well be another!

Now, it’s your turn! Share with us what’s on your coffee table or nightstand.
