8 COFFEE TABLE BOOKS WORTH LEAVING OPEN

Beautiful books for curious minds & well-styled spaces.

A good coffee table book does more than fill a stack. It adds personality, starts conversations and tells you something about the person who lives there. We looked for books with beautiful covers, compelling photography and subjects worth getting lost in. These eight made the edit.

SHOP THE EDIT

01 / NEW YORK BY NEW YORK

New York through the eyes of the photographers who defined it, from Edward Steichen to Peter Lindbergh.

02 / ART NOUVEAU

Art Nouveau in all its excess: architecture, fashion, decorative arts, advertising and more.

03 / HELMUT NEWTON. LEGACY

Provocative, glamorous and unmistakably Newton. A retrospective of one of fashion photography’s most influential image-makers.

04 / LOUIS VUITTON: THE BIRTH OF MODERN LUXURY

A deep dive into the design, advertising and archives that built one of fashion’s most enduring houses.

05 / VANITY FAIR PORTRAITS

A century of famous faces photographed by some of the biggest names behind the camera. The kind of book you can open and stay awhile.

06 / BUCCELLATI: A CENTURY OF TIMELESS BEAUTY

Buccellati’s jewelry is reason enough. The photography makes a very good case for never putting this one away.

 

07 / CAT

Graphic, beautifully designed and devoted entirely to the cat. No further justification required.

08 / UNAPOLOGETICALLY CHIC

Designer Ryan Saghian on interiors, art, architecture and the case for decorating without restraint.
