About Prettybook
Curating the world's most beautiful coffee table books since 2019
Prettybook started in my Austin design studio, where I'd stack coffee table books for client meetings. Clients kept asking where I found them. After answering the same questions hundreds of times, I realized there was no good resource for discovering beautifully designed books.
So I built one.
Today, Prettybook helps thousands of design lovers, interior enthusiasts, and gift-givers find the perfect coffee table book. Every book on this site has been personally reviewed — I don't recommend anything I wouldn't display in my own home.

Founder & Editor
I'm a design studio owner turned coffee table book obsessive. Over the past 8 years, I've built a personal collection of 200+ books spanning architecture, photography, fashion, and motorsports.
When I'm not hunting for rare editions, I'm running my studio or exploring Austin's best bookshops. Got a book recommendation? I'd love to hear it.
