Named one of Elle Decor’s Best Coffee Table Books to Gift in 2022. A tastemaking couple shares their playbook for creating a home that’s both beautiful and comfortable Chris Mitche ll and Pilar Guzmán are design obsessives who both want the same thing: rooms that are spare yet warm, layered yet clean, current yet timeless.

Over the course of six ever more ambitious home renovations, they’ve cracked the code on how to achieve this.
