I agree.
It feels a bit more utilitarian, than elegant.

Though by degree; and depending on
the quality of the layout and materials.

When well thought out and considering
all the elements of the “book”
as well as it’s intended audience
it can certainly be made aesthetically pleasing.

I’ve also seen plenty of “elegantly produced”
stuff that comes off simply pretentious
because the concept and the photographs (or art)
have not earned that "coffee table book elegance."
