I have added a lot of home decor books to my coffee table book collection over the years and I wanted to share them all in one post! Most of the books I love have underlying themes: traditional/southern decor, coastal/island decor and timeless American design. Of course there are bits of other styles mixed in here and there, but overall, I tend to be most enamored with traditional design and coastal elements. I’ve come to love grandmillennial style and appreciating the incorporation of timeless and antique pieces into the home.

I learned a lot from “The Perfectly Imperfect Home” by Deborah Needleman. One of the few books I kept checking out of the library so much that I bought a copy. The images are all drawings but they are vibrant!
