Abstract: What gives this room its look of sophistication and elegance is not the swimming pool the rooms looks out onto or the well place object d’art or the luxurious white sofa.

books as furnitureWhat gives this room its look of sophistication and elegance is not the swimming pool the rooms looks out onto or the well place object d’art or the luxurious white sofa. It’s the books casually placed on the coffee table, which signifies to the world that the owner of the room is a worldly well read person. According to Wikipedia, A coffee table book is a hardcover book that is intended to sit on a coffee table or similar surface in an area where guests sit and are entertained, thus inspiring conversation or alleviating boredom. They tend to be oversized and of heavy construction, since there is no pressing need for portability.

Subject matter is generally confined to non-fiction, and is usually visually-oriented. Pages consist mainly of photographs and illustrations, accompanied by captions and small blocks of text, as opposed to long prose. Since they are aimed at anyone who might pick the book up for a light read, the analysis inside is often more basic and with less jargon than other books on the subject.
