About Us | At Booth & Williams, we are persuaded that vintage books are a unique medium within the world of interior design. Unlike paint, flooring and even furniture, vintage books can’t be duplicated. As such, owners can uniquely sign their spaces with the books they select, expressing themselves through the colors, eras, topics and textures that comprise their collections.<br><br>Our staff draws on its experience in interior design and rare books to deliver rich palettes of book décor to help you achieve your look. Offerings change daily in each of our online shops with freshly curated sets and single titles. We also stock and sell by the foot many color/age combinations like Mid-Century Yellows or Modern Greens – and no two feet are ever the same. Finally, our designers can help you with all of your custom projects from concept to final delivery - all at no extra cost. |
