Christmas Book List for 2014
Sunday, December 7, 2014The book lists are out for Christmas and it is so fun to see what editors, reviewers and critics are recommending as “good reads” for under the tree. Naturally, we have our suggestions as well. So, if you are considering a move, a renovation or starting from the ground up with a new build next year, here are some books that we think will inspire you to get started on your projects in the coming year!
An historicist at heart, Peter Pennoyer takes classic architecture to the right heights.
One of our favorites. A must have in any library for those interested in Architecture and design.
Another point of view on the traditional vernacular. Ferguson & Shamamian is the team responsible for the renovation at 15 Shagbark. One of our favorite listings of 2014.
Timeless design. If you don’t own it already, you should. I suppose the best affair you will ever have is with your house!
Tom Scheerer will make you whistle a merry merry!
For the one who likes clean lines, Victoria Hagan has an exceptional eye.
Wildly Chic. Miles’ book is A Must Have.
For all you TB fans, this book will blind you with her style and color schemes!
Let your hair down and do what you like! Susanna’s book is a glorious collection of rooms and ideas that will inspire you to do just that!
Whimsey and style at its best. LOVE Katie Ridder!
Splendid new book by Markham Roberts.
Jane Garmey has put together a beautiful book that will transport you to some of Connecticut’s most lovely Eden’s. For anyone who loves to garden, this is a solid addition to your library.
A good gardening library starts with the basics. I think Vita qualifies…
Why not do the complete series.
A stunning garden book that really does deserve the coffee table spot. It will give you incredible ideas for your own garden.
Jack Staub also has this wonderful collection to read for your kitchen garden. In addition to Exciting Vegetables, there is Remarkable Fruits and Exceptional Herbs. These are beautifully done books and make fabulous Hostess presents.
All these books can be bought or ordered at Barrett Books. They have other very good suggestions at their Noroton Heights location. Call to order, or drop in and enjoy the experience of a great book store.
