Our Must Have Coffee Table Books

One of our favorite ways to add personality to a space is with coffee table books! They are the pieces we reach for when styling a room, not just because they are beautiful, but because they reflect the things we love and the homes that inspire us. A good coffee table book invites you to slow down, flip through a few pages, and enjoy the space you are in.

Take a look at our favorite picks that we keep in our own homes and return to for inspiration again and again!

Aryn is drawn to books that celebrate timeless interiors and gracious living. Her selections reflect a love of Southern hospitality, layered design, and homes that feel polished yet welcoming. From classic American decorating to relaxed island inspired spaces, these titles capture the art of creating a home that is both beautiful and personal.

Allison’s Picks

Allison gravitates toward books that highlight collected living and European influence! Her picks showcase interiors curated over time, with layers of texture and personal story. A shared favorite with Aryn, Home Again, reflects the studio’s appreciation for spaces that balance elegance with everyday comfort.

Coffee table books add more than visual interest to a room. They reflect your taste, inspire creativity, and invite people to slow down and engage with your space. Whether you are drawn to timeless interiors, layered European influences, or books that celebrate entertaining and everyday living, a thoughtfully chosen collection helps a home feel personal and complete. Our designers’ favorites are a starting point for building a stack you truly love, one that brings both beauty and inspiration into your daily life.
