It’s been a while since I've tried something other than my favourite places, but this new place has already become much loved. The design is exquisite and the menu so delicious: the super chic and stylish Loulou was designed by Joseph Dirand, one of the most talented designers in Paris...
“Cool To You” is the third release of this year from Taylor Van Ginkel’s solo project, Teenage Priest. Written and produced by the Los Angeles artist, he expresses the struggle of wanting to be perceived as cool, despite straying from his internal desires.
ONE LOOK THROUGH our Décor Archives and you will notice immediately that there are very few contemporary interiors and a thorough fondness for maximalism. We've always favoured traditional or new traditional styles to anything modern, being drawn instead, to ornamentation―gilded mirrors and chandeliers, toile and boiserie and crown canopies. The closest we've ever ventured to the modern or minimal is ornate austerity.
On the 1st of September I felt like someone pushed a button causing the weather to suddenly take a different turn: the mornings are brisk, the afternoons are hot, and by the time I leave work it’s chilly again. The mood on the streets of Paris is more beautiful than I have ever have seen before.
Villa Station is a small guest house in an old, rebuilt train station in the town of Ses Salines, in the south of Mallorca. The décor is charmingly eclectic, country house meets shabby chic, with wonderful Mallorcan details such as rustic wooden beams and colourful tiles.
OFFICIALLY SUMMERTIME and from ruffled mules in summer's favourite colour to natural rattan cane serving trays for drinks en plein air; linen wrap mini dresses and drop earrings made of the most romantic South Sea pearls; broderie anglaise and layers of tulle in a pleated day skirt, here are a few things on our shopping list lately...
This is a time of fashion houses reissuing their iconic pieces, and with Fendi's reissuing of its Baguette on the SS19 runways and Karl Lagerfeld's recent passing away, the Italian fashion house is very much on everyone's minds. The late designer did, after all, work for the brand for 54 years. So for this edition of Style Inspiration, we'll look at the many iterations of Fendi's iconic FℲ branded pieces, from mock turtlenecks and knits to capes, tights, and trenches, and of course, the Baguette.

From handblown decanters with 24k gold leaf stoppers, to white ceramic cocottes and the most beautifully engineered and exceptional knives—here is a Gift Guide for those who love to cook...
Gosto bastante de desenvolver meus móveis com um diferencial, gosto de criar uma relação com as pessoas, desenvolver uma interação, pois penso em móveis atemporais, que durem para uma vida inteira. Portanto estes móveis acabam se tornado não apenas móveis, mas um bem imaterial, insubstituível, que acaba fazendo parte da família, de sua história. Acredito que quando colocamos a mão, como artesãos, passamos nossos sentimentos para o móvel, o que traz alma e o torna único.
When thinking of the South I always picture sunny landscapes, pink hours by the beach, dîners en plein air on the terrace. Last August I spent only a few days in the south and I didn’t get a chance to visit all the places I wanted to see so much.
You may or may not have heard of the name Mart Stam, despite the fact that he created one of the great cornerstones of twentieth century seating design.
THIS 19th CENTURY SWEDISH apartment in Strandvägen, Stockholm is an ornate austerity dream. Both spare and luxurious at once, close to the water and downtown, this eight room, 322 square meter space has three balconies, four bedrooms, three bathrooms, and a dressing room.
