Why we carry this
Andy Spade is the American entrepreneur and visionary known for co-founding Kate Spade, Sleepy Jones, and Frances Valentine. In partnership with his wife, Kate, he is responsible for creating a colorful and whimsical aesthetic that offered a refreshing change to the design world. JP Williams and Andy Spade collaborated to create a quirky and disarming selection of images that form a window into this accomplished photographer’s peripatetic mind. In this book, Andy, described by “Style Guy” Glenn O’Brien in the introduction as “bon vivant, master of drollery, messenger of the hidden punch line,” is revealed as the kind of artist that elevates the everyday into the sublime. Andy Spade's "Likes" volume resembles the tomes of traditional dictionaries and reference literatures: those densely packed, clothbound, hardback books that have come to be recognized as the shape and weight for publications to outline systems of logic. In using the formal space of a physical book as referent and reference - self-referentia.

Having People Over
In a world that often feels disconnected and transactional, there's something quietly radical about inviting people over. We're talking about the kind of hospitality that doesn't require matching napkins or a kitchen that looks like it belongs in a magazine. Chelsea Fagan, author and CEO, has written a book that actually understands this. Having People Over is the kind of guide we didn't know we needed--one that treats entertaining not as performance art but as a genuine way to build community. She walks us through the practical stuff: how to design a space that doesn't stress us out when someone drops by, how to plan a menu that won't trap us in the kitchen, how to set a table without overthinking it. The book covers the basics we've somehow forgotten. There's a section on cocktail hours, past and future, with recipes for those of us who drink and those who don't. There's the full dinner party tutorial--inviting people, setting the mood, actually enjoying yourself while it's happening. And maybe most importantly, there's permission to do this at whatever budget makes sense for us. It's a book about creating moments worth staying in for. Not moments that look good on Instagram, but moments that feel like home.

Full of ideas and with beautiful images of many never-before-photographed interiors, Kelly Wearstler: Evocative Style is an inspirational look at the designer's inventive work. Filled with new work, this volume is a must for other designers and homeowners looking for elegant design inspiration and ideas.
Steak House
We follow Eric Wareheim on a road trip across the country, exploring what these local institutions mean in an age of cookie-cutter restaurants. Join us at New York classics like Peter Luger's, local stalwarts like North Carolina's Beef 'N Bottle, and over-the-top iterations like Bern's in Florida. From these journeys Eric has collected 45 of the best, most decadent recipes, which are accompanied by glorious images of the food, the restaurants, and most importantly the people behind them. We discover why the martini is THE drink to order and why Mexico should be a stop on your next steak house road trip. We hear about Jerome Williams, the bartender and server at Beef 'N Bottle who made Eric start this steak house journey in the first place. When we're ready to make the steak house standards at home, we'll have options like the Prime Rib, Parker House Rolls, and Thick and Thin Onion Rings or go for newer additions like Pollo Asado and The Crown of Pork.
