Home objects are a core part of Totem Road, and our overall philosophy, as they help to invoke a sense of place in your home, while encouraging you to take time for pause, reflection and connection. As such, we're excited to bring a range of beautiful coffee table books that span architecture, design, nature and more.
The perfect coffee table companions, gifts or as a way to spoil yourself, our curation of books were all hand-selected by our founder, Don Garvan, as they share our ethos. Inspired by nature, light, sustainability and design, we've listed out some of our top picks.
