Want to escape winter’s dreariness and dive into a sun-soaked universe? Luxus Magazine has selected a series of coffee table books that highlight destinations where warmth and joy will comfort all lovers of summer.
Turquoise Coast by Assouline
In Turquoise Coast, published by Assouline, the Turkish Mediterranean shoreline unfolds like a luminous ribbon where mountains meet the sea. Between ancient ruins and dazzling coves, the book sketches an azure journey with infinite shades. Each page invites the reader to follow the horizon through Oliver Pilcher’s lens.
Gray Malin: Italy by Abrams Books
Gray Malin extends his unique gaze to Italy’s coastlines and panoramas, from the sparkling waters of the Amalfi Coast to the colorful cliffs of Cinque Terre. Gray Malin: Italy revisits the spirit of his “La Dolce Vita” series, capturing the retro soul of the Riviera: carefree swimmers, vintage umbrellas, elegant boats and golden light. Gathering previously unseen images – never published or once reserved for a private circle – the book celebrates the timeless magic and sunny art of living that define Italy’s legendary shores.
