My name is Katie and I’m a design book addict.  A couple of months ago I found this massive lucite, glass and chrome coffee table on Craigslist for $60 (I know, find of a lifetime!) and love that it accommodates six stacks of books on top and six below.  I still have multiple stacks elsewhere (it’s a disease!), but this keeps my collection somewhat tidy.  Anyway, thought I’d share a few iPhone snaps of my trinkets and such.  We’re still hunting for a sofa (and desk, and bookshelves), but I’m in no rush.  Rooms that are decorated over time have more soul, don’t you think?  I’d love to hear your thoughts!

P.S. Some of my most treasured: Flair Annual 1953, Allure by Diana Vreeland, photography books by Richard Avedon, Karl Lagerfeld and David Bailey, Tony Duquette, Happy Times by Lee Radziwill, Michael Smith’s Houses, Goodbye Picasso, Billy Baldwin Decorates, David Hicks: Designer, Vogue Living, museum/gallery publications collected on my travels…
