A recent story on the cover of WSJ Magazine about designer Brunello Cucinelli gifting his daughter for her wedding a 1000 book library filled with all the advice he would want her to have was so moving to me. My parents certainly did not have the means to do something like this for me or my siblings, but my mother did keep all of the letters I sent to her from the years I spent living in Los Angeles and New York City and along all my travels. It isn’t exactly the same, but the sentiment resonates when a collection can be read as if the giver and recipient are in an eternal conversation. What a gift.

This experience can be customized in a multitude of ways. For yourself, we would work together with my guidance and your interests to create your own library. For a significant other we could explore the types of books that are not only of interest, but meaningful. And of course, as legacy to a friend or family member. 

For $100,000 investment, the process would be over 10 months and include all fees associated with the collection for 1,000 books. To place the order, there is a non refundable deposit of $10,000 with the balance billed monthly for the duration of the project. Entirely immersive experience for all involved
