This fall marks a pair of major milestones for seminal shelter magazine Elle Decor. Along with celebrating its 25th anniversary in print, it’s releasing Elle Decor: The Height of Style (Abrams; $45), a new book celebrating some of the chicest interiors to have graced its design-rich pages. Filled with interiors by top design icons like Steven Gambrel and Kelly Wearstler, the book, which came out on Tuesday, showcases some 220 rooms from across the globe.
Elle Decor editor-in-chief Michael Boodro helps break down this stunner: a Manhattan living room by Gotham decorator Todd Alexander Romano. “The room may be smallish,” Boodro says, “but Romano manages to squeeze 15 pieces of furniture into barely 350 square feet.”
