reading rooms: the hundred year old man who…
I admit that I totally judged this book by its cover, but in a good way… The great illustration and hand lettering (design done by Fraser Muggeridge Studio) immediately drew me in and then the words (written by Jonas Jonasson) kept me interested. I am a little more than halfway through it now and am really enjoying it. And then there is this room! It’s Antique dealer Florence Lopez’s Parisian studio, as shown in Architectural Digest Spain.
So, I had the idea for a new column to share both books and spaces that I enjoy and that have a common aesthetic. Hopefully, it will not only show that inspiration can be found anywhere but help to grow my reading list.

Yes, please. This is a fantastic idea! I’m always looking for good book recos and who wouldn’t like to dream about reading in a beautiful space.
