Renowned Huntington Beach interior designer Samia Verbist explores the decorative possibilities of coffee table displays, books, and all the decor that brings a space together

HUNTINGTON BEACH, CA – October 11, 2022 – (Newswire.com)

French interior designer Samia Verbist, the founder of Samia Verbist Interior Design in Orange County, recently explained the value of a well-placed coffee table book display.

The article is the latest in a long line of topics close to Verbist’s heart. Whether it’s powder room ideas that make rooms stand out or designing an outdoor space with interior design techniques, Verbist stands out from its contemporaries.

In the article on her blog entitled Designing a coffee table book display, Huntington Beach’s interior designer explains how versatile coffee table book displays are.

And while people think that coffee table books belong exclusively with coffee tables in living rooms, Verbist quickly dispels that long-held notion. After all, mix and match and subverting expectations is what she does best.

“Although we’ve come to call them coffee table books, they’re not limited to the coffee table. In fact, I like to place them in many areas of the living space, such as the bedroom or home office‘ Verbis says.

Choosing the right topics

A good coffee table book display is much more than a nice table with random books on it. Choosing the right illustrated books for a display is key to a comprehensive and detailed setup, Verbist says.

“Think of art, fashion, architecture, design, landscaping, gardens or travel,” says Verbist of choosing different subjects. “For fashion coffee table books, like a book on the history of fashion, overall reviews are good. But you can also search for more specific publications, like a special book about Chanel or Dior.”

Verbist emphasizes that limiting coffee table books solely to coffee tables limits your design options….
