For his second book, Booth, a master of modern elegance, creates homes that are strikingly sophisticated and wonderfully livable at the same time.

Booth showcases his innovative and sophisticated modern interiors, which mix a keen sense of tranquility with bold and elegant details, as well as homes renovated inside and out, and houses designed and decorated from the foundations up. Both his exteriors and interiors display a harmonious blend of traditional and contemporary elements, resulting in an appealingly timeless aesthetic. This exquisitely designed tome presents his forward-thinking vision.

The spectacular projects featured span the country from coast to coast—from a dramatic Los Angeles hillside dwelling with expansive windows to a contemporary Nashville home that marries brick, metal, and wood. For his own Provincetown seaside getaway, he has chosen an unexpected cutting-edge style. These projects show how he pushes the boundaries of design while imbuing spaces with soul.
House Beautiful Best New Design Book of 2025: "A master of modern elegance, designer Ray Booth is adept at mixing architectural details with exquisite flourishes, creating homes that are rich with the luster of a life well lived. His second book showcases projects from coast to coast, including a hillside dwelling in California and his own seaside getaway in Provincetown, Massachusetts."

"In his second book, Booth, a partner in McAlpine, shares projects that orchestrate tranquil symphonies in neutrals layered with texture, contrast, and artfully crafted elements that feel deeply luxurious, never boring. His carefully considered, nuanced work, including his own home in Provincetown, is always inspiring." — FREDERIC
