Made to Order at Juniper Custom in Boulder, Colorado

For generations, the great facade of Grand Central Terminal has been the doorway to New York for travelers arriving in the city. Originally created in collaboration with goop, this set of eight oversized books carries a black-and-white image of that facade across its custom jackets, so that the landmark rises along the shelf. Within, each volume explores New York's architecture, art, interiors and people through gorgeous photography and essays. It is a set for the lifelong New Yorker, the one who moved away, and every reader who dreams of the city.
