This past December, the physics Nobel Prize was awarded for the experimental confirmation of a quantum phenomenon known for more than 80 years: entanglement. As envisioned by Albert Einstein and his collaborators in 1935, quantum objects can be mysteriously correlated even if they are separated by large distances. But as weird as the phenomenon appears, why is such an old idea still worth the most prestigious prize in physics?
WE TRIED TO come up with a few different ideas this year for the men in your life⏤a silver retro-style rotary-inspired telephone, an all-aluminium suitcase, an eggplant serving platter, and a striped throw cushion. There are, of course, old favourites as well: a Fair Isle jumper, a cashmere scarf and glove set, a cedarwood candle and more.
WHEN YOU think about holiday decorating, the colour black doesn't normally come to mind. Green and red; and of course, white, are the more obvious choices, for black seems a bit severe and lacking their festive quality at first glance. However, when paired with some gold or greenery ...
WHEN DESIGNING your kitchen, you might not necessarily think about artwork first, but if you did, you would be surprised how well it works in this space. Many people opt for food-inspired themes such as fruit (lemons, apples) or Still Lifes, but Landscapes, Watercolours, and even Figurative drawings also work. We've rounded up a few of our favourite ways to display art in the kitchen, whether leaning on countertops or picture rails, hanging on subway tile and marble backsplashes, exposed brick and boiserie...

EVERY YEAR around this time, when the holidays are over (the memories of fairy lights and sequins fading) we're back at work and it's a brand new year, we become hopelessly drawn to winter white.
You’ve just come in from a day’s skiing and your ski lodge is the perfect hideaway in which to warm up and unwind after your strenuous day on the mountain. Flickering candlelight, a dark neutral palette enlivened with warm tones of amber and amethyst and lots of soft inviting textures are the ingredients of this magical and cosy interior.
This week’s At Home With features architectes d’intérieur, Charlotte de Tonnac et Hugo Sauzay, whose Paris apartment is in the 4ème arrondissement. We love their space, not for the classic chevron floors or juliet balconies, which are of course lovely, but because their home office situation is not unlike the one P & I enjoy at our place . . .
THIS WEEK’S AT THE GALLERY features Parisian artist Mathias Kiss, whose work is centred around reflection on and questions about past and future systems...
Giambattista Valli‘s PARIS APARTMENT is an intriguing mix of traditional and modern, or perhaps best described as the new modern. The bones...
TODAY’S INTERIOR INSPIRATION comes from the Brooklyn apartment of interior designer Adam Charlap Hyman. The landlord had stripped away all details...
