Coffee Table Books To Style and Read

Coffee Table Books To Read and Style

Part of the fun of being at home more is playing around and updating it with what we already have. I’ve been enjoying going through our bookshelves and swapping them out around the house. It’s a free way to switch up the colors and it’s reintroducing me to some of my favorite books! I love it when decor is functional and believe coffee table books are more enjoyable when I actually want to read them too.

All of these books are a mix of writing and art that cover culture, architecture, design, photography, and travel. I hope to keep adding to this list as I find new favorites too- I’m realizing my favorite cookbooks aren’t on here yet either!
