Elsa, this post is for you, and it's filled with wonderful decor inspiration (and shopping links!), from chic cane armchairs and elegant table lamps; brass shelves and towel bars and wicker placemats, and of course, a perfect selection of gold ...
Every year I try to humbly honour Brancusi’s work with a few words. The 19th of every February is marked by his anniversary: the birth of Romanian-born sculptor, painter and photographer Constantin Brâncuși (February 19, 1876 – March 16, 1957).
“If the world were merely seductive, that would be easy. If it were merely challenging, that would be no problem. But I arise in the morning torn between a desire to improve the world and a desire to enjoy the world. This makes it hard to plan the day.” ―E.B. White
If you've been thinking about adding art to your space and aren't sure where to begin, then this article is for you. To begin, while it may be tempting to follow trends, in the end, it's best to simply buy what you love.
WE FIRST FEATURED the home of husband and wife design duo Dorothée Boissier and Patrick Gilles way back in November 2013, but have just stumble upon new-to-us (and more casual) photos of their newly renovated Paris apartment and couldn't resist revisiting this beautiful space once again.
Recently, had told you about our trip from Spain to the south of France, Scotland and the English countryside in late May, early June. It was during this trip that we fell in love (again) with the countryside and thought it might be time to do something completely different than we've done before.
Every year Nadia Candet opens up the doors at Private Choice and invites everyone to feel « comme chez soi » This is my third time visiting Private Choice, where Nadia Candet has once again asserted her curatorial taste and displayed everything in an Haussmannien apartment. This year the event is unfolding over two appartements.
WE DISCOVERED these stunning photos of Schloss Benrath (Benrath Palace) by @helenlovestulips on Instagram and immediately fell in love with the wonderfully over-the-top Baroque-style maison de plaisance (pleasure palace) in Benrath, now a borough of Düsseldorf...
Like many of you have already noticed, almost everyone on Instagram is on holiday, laying in the sun and doing nothing. In case you are still at work, as well, here is something that made me dream for a while this week and took my mind off of work.
The app that once began with an array of artfully arranged lattes and avocado toasts shifted, for a while, its attention to promoting millennial influencers with a mastery of DSLR cameras and photo presets.

A chance encounter while living in Canada led Jay Davey to working with willow in Somerset. Currently based near Taunton and the Somerset Levels where willow has been grown for generations, the designer uses local Somerset willow...
I was walking the other day, to a conference with Esther Perel (for those reading this article who haven't heard of her, I totally recommend her podcasts and books) and I thought I was never going to get there on time because I stopped in at so many beautiful Parisian design stores on my way. And so, I thought I should share with you some décor inspiration, a few things on my shopping list, and the décor-related Instagram accounts that I adore these days...
WE ARE CURRENTLY IN THE MIDDLE OF DECORATING THE COTTAGE and despite there being unpacked boxes everywhere, have already chosen a paint colour and already know that there will be a gilded antique mirror hanging above the fireplace, a sentimental piece...
