Offline reading

The value of good reading cannot be underestimated, so I have listed some favorite, inspiring books in the sidebar to the right.

The Buccaneers,
by Edith Wharton
Understanding how Americans aspired to live in the past century sheds new light on how we live today and reminds us how little our dreams have changed.
Billy Baldwin Decorates,
by Billy Baldwin
The late designer is the paragon of the ideas that “perfection can be sterile” and that “good taste has no price tag.”
Seascapes,
by Hiroshi Sugimoto
The book is a compilation of black-and-white ocean photographs that remind me of Hawaii. These images elegantly capture the ideas of natural beauty and serenity.
