Elle Decor, Elle Magazine's design and style off-shoot, hosted a party Monday night for the release of Modern Americana, the first ever go-to-guide examining the exquisite craftsmanship and custom-made furniture from American studios during a nearly undiscovered era of design. The book's authors, Todd Merrill, a highly respected NYC antique dealer, and Julie V. Iovine, editor of Architect's Magazine, joined Elle Decor editor-in-chief Margaret Russell and many others at Merrill's NoHo antique store to celebrate while guests mingled among pieces from the collection featured in the book.
