NEW | Jeffrey Banks has blazed a remarkable path through the fashion industry. Born in Washington, DC, Banks discovered his passion for clothes at a young age.

When he was just 17 years old, he landed an internship at Ralph Lauren, where his precocious talent and eye for classical American design began to blossom. Storyteller: Tales from a Fashion Insider chronicles the designer and historian’s meteoric rise, graduating from New York’s Parsons School of Design to quickly launching his eponymous menswear line in 1977. He recounts the creative and business challenges of establishing his brand, known for blending traditional American sportswear with luxurious sophistication.

Banks shares intimate stories about designing for celebrities and his close friendships with Ralph Lauren and Calvin Klein, who became his mentors. His designs were photographed by Bruce Weber and Richard Avedon, among others. Stories about Audrey Hepburn, BobbyShort, and Barbra Streisand are also highlighted. But Storyteller: Tales from a Fashion Insider is far more than a catalog of names; Banks relates hilarious and touching tales with unmatched verve. The book also explores Banks’ advocacy for diversity in fashion and his tireless support for young designers. Through personal anecdotes and industry insights, the two-time Coty Award and CFDA Award winner reflects on fashion’s evolution from the 1970s through today.

NEW | In the town once known as Ten Swamps, twelve-year-old Ellie walks a precarious line between her warring parents, each armed with their own version of the truth.

Her father’s house is a minefield, with each step potentially dangerous. Her mother’s home stands empty of the brother who vanished without explanation. And the ancient woods that surround them all hold mysteries that have been lurking beneath the surface for generations. When Ellie forms an unexpected friendship with Larry, a peculiar classmate who seems to understand her in ways no one else can, they create a sanctuary in the threatened woods behind her house. But as strange signals call from the trees and unexplained red dots flicker across her television screen, Ellie begins to wonder if the forest is trying to tell her something, something about the town’s forgotten history, or perhaps about Edward, the brother who either escaped or was taken. Nancy Doyne’s Ten Swamps masterfully captures the raw confusion of adolescence, the ache of fractured families, and the magic of discovering a friend who sees the world the way you do. With unforgettable characters and a setting rich in atmosphere, this novel is a poignant exploration of memory, myth, and the choices that define us.

NEW | This impressive book offers a comprehensive overview of designer and sculptor Eric Schmitt’s work, focusing on the years 2015–2025 while tracing the notable shifts of his practice since the 1980s.

Working primarily with noble materials such as patinated bronze, alabaster, marble, natural stone, and glass, Schmitt blends traditional French craftsmanship with a modern aesthetic to create functional works of art that balance geometry, fluidity, and subtle strength. Written in English and French, the book opens with an introduction by Patrick Mauriès, who charts the development of Schmitt’s artistic influences—from his early fascination with the Creative Salvage movement in the 1980s to his enduring commitment to hands-on fabrication. Organized thematically, the book’s central section explores Schmitt’s creations through chapters such as Cornerstones, Metal & Company, Levitation, and Material Illusions, with opening commentaries by Axelle Corty.

Through stunning photography by Adrien Dirand, readers are invited onto the grounds of Le Chapitre, while Alexandra Babeanu’s text shares the story behind the restored 12th-century farm that serves as Schmitt’s home, studio, and collaborative workshop. The volume concludes with an extensive catalogue raisonné of more than 700 pieces, establishing the book as both a visual archive and an essential reference for collectors, curators, and design professionals. Eric Schmitt portrays the distinguished designer’s multi-faceted practice, one that continues to blur the boundaries between design, sculpture, and architecture.

Eric Schmitt (born in 1955) is a renowned French designer and sculptor internationally recognized for his sculptural, timeless furniture and objects. Self-taught, he began his career creating expressive wrought-iron pieces before evolving toward refined, minimalist forms inspired by nature, architecture, and his upbringing in Poitou, France.

Newman’s portrait style, guided and influenced by her studies at the International Center of Photography and mentorship from renowned photographers Robert Caputo, Phil Borges, and Steve McCurry, demonstrates her unique ability to connect with strangers in brief, yet meaningful, moments in time.

WENDY NEWMAN grew up in White Plains, New York. She attended Bucknell University and graduated from George Washington University with a Bachelor of Arts degree in English. She had a long career in the fashion business, beginning as a fashion editor at Harper’s Bazaar, then as the director of Prada US, and later, as the owner of the first store in New York for the shoe designer Christian Louboutin.

NEW | In the 1960s, Joan Kron and her friend and business partner, Audrey Sabol, made history, collaborating with an emerging group of artists—Jim Dine, Jasper Johns, Allan Kaprow, Claes Oldenburg, Robert Rauschenberg, Ed Ruscha, George Segal, Jean Tinguely, and Andy Warhol, to name a few.

In 1962, Kron and Sabol presented the first group show of Pop Art on the East Coast, at the YM/YWHA in Philadelphia, beating museums and New York galleries. They also went into business, producing multiples with Robert Indiana, Roy Lichtenstein, and Marisol Escobar. Sabol and Kron’s swan song was the Museum of Merchandise; it had a storefront by an unknown named Christo and a trouble-making product for sale by rising star Andy Warhol. All this took place before the pair pioneered art on billboards with Roy Lichtenstein.

A first-hand account and visual history, The Renegade Housewives of Pop Art™: A Memoir of the 1960s, is an inspiring tale of invention and reinvention, relatable to many women. Through never-before-seen documents, Joan Kron’s memoir recounts how she and Sabol became two of the most daring and revolutionary “housewives” of the 1960s. This is a new eyewitness account of the 1960s art scene by one of its last living participants. With wit and verve, Kron shares a collection of personal stories and an extensive, private, photographic archive from her early years in costume design to her mid-and-late-career adventures as a local arts revolutionary and a reporter and editor at prominent New York publications.

Joan Kron was born and raised in New York City. She graduated in costume design from the Yale School of Drama (now the David Geffen School of Drama at Yale) before moving to Philadelphia. As a founding member and head of the YM/YWHA Arts Council, she co-produced several Pop Art exhibitions. In her 40s, she wrote for Philadelphia magazine, New York Magazine, and the New York Times, later joining the Wall Street Journal, where she initiated the fashion beat. She served as editor-in-chief of Avenue magazine, before joining Conde Nast’s Allure, where she created the plastic-surgery beat. She went on to produce and direct the prize-winning documentary film Take My Nose Please! Comediennes and Plastic Surgery. She is the author of several works, including High-Tech: the Industrial Style and Source Book for the Home, with Suzanne Slesin (Clarkson Potter, 1978) and Home-Psych: The Social Psychology of Home and Decoration (Clarkson Potter, 1983). Now 98, she lives in Miami, Florida, and is at work on her second film, Weapon of Beauty: The Cloak and Dagger History of Botox.

NEW | Award-winning designer and passionate world traveler Jiun Ho reveals the inspiration for his innovative interiors, furniture, lighting, and textiles in a captivating photographic journey that celebrates a life rich in experience.

By Jiun Ho

Written with Nancy Graystone

Multidisciplinary designer and passionate world traveler Jiun Ho looks back on a life of global exploration, inspiration, determination, and boundless creativity in Jiun Ho: Experience, the first monograph from a creative force who has gained international attention for his harmonious, well-balanced interiors and innovative furniture, lighting, and textile designs. Jiun's body of work, informed by elements observed in the world around him, draws deeply on the colors, textures, and shapes of nature, the designer's greatest inspiration. When Jiun was eight years old, his mother took him aside and gave him a single sentence of advice: "You can be poor in life, but Jiun, you should never be poor in experiences." Those words have gone on to influence all the decisions he has made from that day forward. Born in Malaysia, Jiun moved from his home in Kuala Lumpur in the early 1990s to study interior design and architecture in Chicago. At the age of 26—after a successful but emotionally unfulfilling career with a prestigious international architecture and design firm—he boldly launched his eponymous design company and set out to achieve his personal goal of visiting more than 100 countries by the time he turned 40 and, most important, living a life rich in experiences. Tracing his journeys across the continents with camera and sketchbook in hand, Jiun Ho: Experience is an inspiring travelogue as well as a document of the designer's best work, including luxury hotels, resorts, restaurants, and private residences around the globe.

JIUN HO is an award-winning interior and furnishings designer based in San Francisco. He is the founder and president of the innovative, multidisciplinary Jiun Ho Inc., which includes Jiun Ho Interiors, Jiun Ho Furniture, Jiun Ho Light, Jiun Ho Textile, and Jiun Ho De Jia—a gallery and atelier showcasing art and antiques.

Emmy Award-winning designer Kerry Joyce is known for the refined elegance and quiet classicism that unite his varied houses and interiors, as well as his collections of textiles, furniture, lighting, and rugs.

By Kerry Joyce

Foreword by Whitney Robinson

Emmy Award-winning designer Kerry Joyce is known for the refined elegance and quiet classicism that unite his varied houses and interiors, as well as his collections of textiles, furniture, lighting, and rugs. His debut book spans a fascinating career, celebrating an impeccable, warm design sense that seeks always to turn houses into homes—to achieve the Intangible through the creation of tranquility and balance. The book covers eight homes in a surprising range of styles, from modern to traditional, urban to rustic, period restorations to entirely newly imagined houses that feel as though they are just as authentic. In addition, a charming introduction describes Joyce’s unusual path to becoming a designer, with thoughtful essays on each part of his work, from houses to interiors to his products. A special view into the creative process of an influential and multi-talented designer.

A master of crafting beautiful homes, Kerry Joyce is recognized as one of the top designers in the country. He has received notable acclaim throughout his career for his unique and unparalleled design sense, seamlessly marrying fine materials, clean lines, sophisticated textures, and knowing detail into exquisite interiors and houses across stylistic boundaries. Joyce has also channeled his diverse talents into a group of highly regarded home furnishing collections, including the hallmark Kerry Joyce Textiles. With offices in Los Angeles and Connecticut, his firm, Kerry Joyce Associates, offers a comprehensive approach to design and consulting, creating a richly personal and customized sensibility on each project for his sophisticated clientele.

“His fabrics, his furniture, his interiors - they all have a certain je ne sais quoi. Now Kerry Joyce, in his first book, sheds light on the intangible, taking readers through eight projects in which his quiet classicism turned mere houses into homes. You’ll want to jump right in - but don’t skip the introduction. Joyce (did know he won an Emmy?) talks about his unusual career path and describes all aspects of his work including product design.” – Traditional Home

“The Intangible is overwhelmingly beautiful and pleasurable – A masterful work. His vibe, his talent is absolutely POURED into it – every page just beams! The photography is sublime and when paired with Joyce's stories (and his voice) and the textiles, it's personal and thorough; really impressive. Books like this are hard to do.“ – Sophie Donelson, Editor in Chief, House Beautiful

"Upon reading Kerry Joyce's new book, The Intangible, he makes the convincing point that his palette of materials and colors results in something that might be called the intangible, a sense of tranquility and balance in rooms that is discernible but not tactile, experienced but not visible. In this compelling book, which reads in part like an autobiography, the reader comes away knowing how he designs, what he thinks about design, and why his loyal clients continue to commission him." - Pamela Pierce, Editor in Chief, Milieu

"To those in the design world, it seems like Kerry Joyce has done it all. Besides conjuring warm, serene homes for his discerning clients, the Los Angeles–based designer has lent his eye to textiles, furniture, lighting, and rugs….. But somehow, there's one thing this multi-hyphenate talent hadn't found time for: A book. That is, until now; The Intangible, Joyce's debut book, comes out next month. One thing it proves? There are perks to waiting for your debut. A combination of featured homes (eight in total, ranging widely in style), essays on Joyce's various creative outlets, and a retrospective introduction that outlines his career beginnings make for a holistic representation of a creative force whose work spans many fields." - Architectural Digest

The Kabbalistic idea of creation, as expressed through light, space, and geometry.

By Alexander Gorlin

WINNER OF THE 2013 NATIONAL JEWISH BOOK AWARDS IN THE VISUAL ARTS CATEGORY

The Kabbalistic idea of creation, as expressed through light, space, and geometry, has left its unmistakeable mark on our civilization. Drawing upon a wide array of historical materials and stunning images of contemporary art, sculpture, and architecture, architect Alexander Gorlin explores the influence, whether actually acknowledged or not, of the Kabbalah on modern design in his unprecedented book Kabbalah in Art and Architecture. Gorlin brings light to the translation of the mystical philosophy into a physical form, drawing clear comparisons between philosophy and design that will excite and exalt. Comprising ten chapters that each outline key concepts of the Kabbalah and its representations, both in historic diagrams and the modern built environment, Kabbalah in Art and Architecture puts forth an unparalleled and compelling reinterpretation of art and architecture through the lens of the Kabbalah and Jewish mysticism. A chapter on the Golem, and an epilogue that discusses German artist Anselm Kiefer’s powerful interpretations of the Kabbalah, complete this unique book.

Although Samuel Abraham Marx was born at the end of the nineteenth century, he had the eye of a modernist.

By Liz O’Brien

Although Samuel Abraham Marx was born at the end of the nineteenth century, he had the eye of a modernist — as an architect, furniture designer, connoisseur, and collector. His vision was neither ostentatious nor grandiose, but subtle and quietly magnificent. Ultramodern Samuel Marx: Architect, Designer, Art Collector  is the first monograph on this lesser-known but increasingly influential American designer. In more than 200 photographs, Marx expert and decorative arts dealer, Liz O’Brien, reveals many of his undiscovered projects, including houses that have been razed despite preservationist protests, as well as his range of furniture designs. Throughout his career, Marx was sought after for his ability to integrate art in well-heeled interiors. The private art collections of many of his wealthy clients have, in the last 40 years, been dispersed to major museums including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Museum of Modern Art in New York, and the Art Institute of Chicago.

Liz O'Brien is a decorative arts dealer specializing in modern design. Her interest in Marx began more than ten years ago when she first showed his furniture designs in her New York gallery, making some of his best pieces available to interior designers and collectors. O'Brien is now recognized as a leading Marx expert and has been instrumental in placing him as an important figure in the history of twentieth-century architecture and design.

“Rooms designed by Samuel A. Marx have so satisfying a feeling of oneness that it’s frequently hard to say where the architecture ends and the furniture begins.” —House Beautiful

A massive bit of “propaganda by architecture” that has no more truth behind it than the absurd notion of “duck and cover.”

By Susan Roy

Conceived by a misguided government seeking to quiet the fears of an anxious public, the concept of the “Family Fallout Shelter” was Cold War paranoia at its finest, a massive bit of “propaganda by architecture” that has no more truth behind it than the absurd notion of “duck and cover.” Innundated with government-sponsored films, posters, booklets, traveling caravans and exhibitions, the American family bought into the idea, investing millions of dollars in home shelters of every conceivable material and design. 

Bomboozled: How the U.S. Government Misled Itself and Its People into Believing They Could Survive a Nuclear Attack lays bare the buried truths of America’s family fallout shelter obsession. Author Susan Roy charts the panic-fueled evolution of the shelter from a well-stocked basement pantry to a full-fledged (and often completely decorated) home addition, revealing through extensive archival photography, nuclear-era memorabilia, and previously unpublished media, a government and people in the grip of self-delusion. Fastidiously researched and sharply written, “Bomboozled” captures the absurdity and uncertainty of a culture that knew no better than to trust its government’s message.

Susan Roy is a writer and editor on architecture, design, and cultural history. The founding managing editor of Allure magazine, she has also held senior editorial positions at This Old House, SELF, Good Housekeeping and Avenue. She holds a master’s degree in architectural history from Columbia University; Bomboozled is loosely based on the subject of her master’s thesis, “The Family Fallout Shelter During the Cold War.”

“Susan Roy pairs illustrations with incisive commentary to reveal just how deluded we used to be about prepping for the all-too-thinkable nuclear attack.” —The Oprah Magazine
