There are so many wonderful new books that have been released this fall, it is hard to cover them all. But one that particularly caught our eye is G: Forever Green by interior designer and style guru Carlos Mota, published by Vendome. Mota, who is also the author of Beige is Not a Color, has such a passion for green that he has now devoted an entire book to it. G: Forever Green celebrates the color in all its manifold manifestations: in nature, food, fashion, jewelry, art, interiors, and architecture.

Illustrated with Mota’s own photographs, taken as he has traveled the world, as well as images by prominent photographers, G: Forever Green features rooms by notable designers, among them Kelly Wearstler, Alessandra Branca, Mark D. Sikes, Robert Couturier, Gert Voorjans, and Nicky Haslam. This stunning volume, elegantly produced with green metallic edge stain, is a testament to the power of green to soothe, inspire, and excite.

“Green is a neutral and looks great in any interior,” says Mota in the book’s introduction. “Green doesn’t have a price tag; it is the most universal and popular of colors. It looks great in a palazzo in Venice or a studio apartment in Brooklyn.”
