I love hard cover design books and I love them for a couple of reasons.
For starters, they look awesome as a foundation for décor. Not much beats a coffee table tray anchored by a couple of design books. They're also the perfect place to perch my collected goodies.
In addition to being great for decorating, they are a timeless source of great design inspiration. It seems that the projects never get old and I can always find great ideas and fresh perspective while thumbing through a great design book.
Thanks to a couple of awesome publishers, I've been lucky enough to find myself on a preview list or two. I thought I'd share a couple of new releases that I've been enjoying lately.
First up is Habitat: The Field Guide to Decorating by Lauren Liess. I've long been a fan of Lauren's work. She's a true talent. She also gives great business advice making her one of the designers I'm not only inspired by but also look up to.

I'm a bit partial to her book since after posting this pic on Instagram, she shared it on a recent post on her blog. Imagine my surprise.

In addition to being a savvy business woman and owning a successful design business, Lauren's work is simply amazing. I'm obsessed with her clean and fresh take on classic design.

Next up is Windsor Smith's Homefront. I've had the pleasure of meeting Windsor a couple of times an she's as personable as she is talented. I have to take out the tissues each time I open her latest book because I can't help but drool over all of the insanely beautiful projects she shares.

Jesse Carrier and Mara Miller knock it out of the park with their book, Positively Chic Interiors. I couldn't think of a better name because their work is indeed positively chic.

And wouldn't you know, just as I was putting the finishing touches on this post, the Postman dropped off yet another design book. Seriously? It's like Christmas!
