For more than 25 years, designer Nate Berkus has been crafting decadent interiors that look like they’ve been collected over time. His impeccable spaces layer delicious neutrals with textural aplomb, like herringbone wood floors or plaster walls with opaque swirls that reveal the artisan’s hand, all of it complemented by creative furniture and lighting that whisper quiet luxury.
It’s a hard to resist the aesthetic he’s channeled into residential interiors, books, collections of home goods, and other métier, which have of course drawn legions of followers and accolades. So when cultivating a list of perfect presents for Father’s Day, he’s got an acute eye for stylish pieces that are sure to please.
Here, Berkus suggests his ideas for gifts for all types of dads (pet parents included).
