Occasionally a new coffee table book hits the market and it is beautiful to look at for a day…and then you never open it again. When you have a true stand-out and staple book, you find yourself referring to it over and over again. The new book Patina Homes by Steve and Brooke Giannetti most certainly belongs in the stand-out category. While their beautiful California home is noteworthy for it’s light-filled architecture, effortlessly inviting decor, and lushly sophisticated gardens, the Gianetti’s also focus on architecture and interiors for clients as well.

Many of the spaces in the book embody the Giannetti’s definition of beauty: where modern, classical, and industrial architectural elements are merged to create exquisite environments enhanced with antiques and modern, refined interiors. I have personally already gifted this book on three separate occasions to friends. Each one has followed up with how much they enjoy the visual vacation that lies within the pages of Patina Homes. I hope you enjoy this preview to start your week!
