Explore the pleasures of life in the homes and gardens of the legendary tropical island of Palm Beach.
Could it be the subtropical climate and seaside breezes that have drawn multiple generations to Palm Beach for more than a century? Or does its timeless appeal lie in its unique mixture of charming bungalows, sleek minimalist houses, chic apartments, and iconic Mediterranean Revival residences by such legendary architects as Maurice Fatio and John Volk? Though the nation’s most exclusive barrier island is perennially thronged with visitors, few have seen the private homes and gardens showcased in Palm Beach Living. Some of the homes incorporate the exuberant colors of the island’s tropical flora; others opt for a soothing, more neutral palette to contrast with the surrounding landscape. All embrace indoor/outdoor living, and each reflects the singular aesthetic of the owner, realized with the help of renowned architects, including Fairfax & Sammons, Chris Stone and David Fox, Daniel Kahan, and Jeffrey W. Smith; superb landscape architects such as Mario Nievera, Jorge Sánchez, and Fernando Wong; and such world-class interior designers as Tom Scheerer, Mark D. Sikes, the late Carleton Varney, Frank de Biasi, Mimi McMakin, Amanda Lindroth, Kim Coleman, and Jonathan Adler. Expertly guided by native Palm Beacher Jennifer Ash Rudick, with photographs by Nick Mele, readers are granted an intimate look at the best in tropical living.

Sudpsuez Tuscan Rooms: Interiors from the Heartland of the Renaissance
An exclusive look into Tuscan interiors that have the hallmarks of magazine’s coverage of remarkable, eclectic, and dramatic spaces.
Tuscany’s historical residences tell stories that no mere guidebook can capture. The houses that dot the landscape—from the stately Medici villas to the more humble yet charming farmhouses—are not just structures but also symbols of a way of life, a lasting testament to the fusion of an agrarian lifestyle, picturesque towns, notable architecture, fine craft, and art.
In the book’s foreword, Cabana founder Mondadori writes, “Tuscany is not merely a region; it is a living canvas, a dreamscape that has cradled the imagination of artists, poets, and thinkers for centuries.” The interiors presented in this book are a celebration of the talents of the diverse contemporary homeowners, who are keeping the region’s creative spirit alive. Houses brim with the output of skilled craftsmen, exquisite tapestries, brocades and damasks, objects arranged as if painterly still lifes, fantastical murals, rare books, furniture from a range of periods, and fine porcelain.
The houses, many published here for the first time, include a gentle hilltop in Maremma where late interior designer Manfredi della Gherardesca filled his family’s castle with superb collections of decorative and fine arts; a rustic coastal retreat where the boundaries between indoor and outdoor are blurred; the Pucci family palace, where a kaleidoscopic twentieth-century fashion phenomenon was born in a Renaissance setting; and a country hideaway where local decorative arts are astutely paired with more worldly objects, a colorful patchwork of Argentinian and Moroccan carpets and African figurines. Tuscany is the birthplace of Renaissance art and thought, a creative explosion that still resonates today. The interiors in this book are a testament to the ongoing legacy of creative rebirth in a most glorious setting.
