| Gracious Interiors by Meg Braff |
I just learned that not only will Charlotte Moss' new book be released on September 8, but another of my favorite designers Meg Braff has her second book due out on the same day. The book cover is a room I love - her living room in her home in Locust Valley, New York.
The book is a celebration of gracious living, radiant color, and the enduring charm of traditional decorating—brought to life through vibrant rooms designed for beauty, comfort, and ease.
Designer Meg Braff is known for an exuberant approach to classic interiors, creating spaces that balance playful glamour with polished sophistication. Her rooms feel joyful yet refined, steeped in pattern, color, and character. Each project reflects a belief in homes that elevate daily life, with interiors that invite celebration, conversation, and connection.
Organized into four sections—Country Living, Summer Escapes, Chic Retreats, and an intimate look at the designer’s own welcoming Locust Valley house—this volume presents full residences that highlight a spirited, color-forward sensibility. From a breezy Nantucket getaway to a comfortably elegant house on the coast of Maine, an Antigua escape perched above the sea, and an inviting Palm Beach retreat, the book explores how thoughtful decorating enriches the cadence of living and reflects the personalities of those who inhabit each space.
The lush photography showcases Braff’s distinctive command of refined yet playful traditionalism. Bold wallpapers, vibrant prints, chintz, block prints, lacquered finishes, fresh textiles, tailored upholstery, and artful accents reveal interiors that feel both timeless and newly imagined. Throughout, the book celebrates rooms that revel in charm, liveliness, and balance, offering inspiration and advice for admirers of American decorating, East Coast style, and maximalist color. It’s an immersive testament to gracious living, vibrant style, and the enduring appeal of beautifully crafted homes.
Her first book The Decorated Home was released in April of 2017 - almost ten years ago.
