American Rustic gives readers an intimate look at rustic decorating and architecture, presenting a fresh, contemporary take brought to life by the genre's foremost designers. Showcasing homes from coast to coast, American Rustic reveals New York farms, Santa Fe casitas, an equestrian ranch on the Yellowstone River, a secretly high-tech Montana cabin, and of course a number of mountain homes, each tailored to the unique area and climate it inhabits, exhibiting Rustic architecture's primary inspiration and concern: a strong sense of place. Each space is consistently highly original and meticulously crafted, thoughtfully conceived, sensitively sited and beautifully executed. Exquisite photography and expert discussion open windows into dream retreats that fulfill a yearning for a simpler life in a chaotic world.

While monograms have a rich history going all the way back to the sixth century B.C., they are anything but outdated. Luscious photography and Kimberly Whitman's personal, expressive writing, peppered with quotes from style and etiquette experts, shows that monogramming is an in-vogue way to customize every area of the home--the entry, living room, table, kitchen, bedroom and beyond. Whitman also instructs on the etiquette of monogramming for marrieds and singles, for incorporating two or three initials or many more. From vintage and fancy to contemporary and edgy, monograms are suitable to every décor and style. From linens, lamps and chairs to silver, china, crystal, desk accessories, headboards and more, here are exquisite examples of using monograms as a "personal logo" in stylish, elegant ways.
