Current Obsessions: Design Rewind
Happy weekend. Ahead, chic fabric lampshades, a new way to conceal the TV, in-water dining, and other joy-making developments:
Above: The perfect spot to spend the weekend, from Hawaiian Modernism: A 1970s Redwood House on Kauai, Preserved and Refinished by Beatrice Faverjon. Photograph by Kate Berry.- Among Annie’s highlights from 3daysofdesign: the inventive Structures of Living modular dwelling by Frama.
- We’re always looking for clever ways to conceal the TV….and now Annie’s smitten with this European system and accessories that make it look good. Just wheel away when needed.
- Love the looks of this spot upstate.
- Admiring this striped, colorful wood hardware, courtesy of Bankston x YSG Studio.
- Pretty glasses + cold drinks + hot summer nights.
- Armadillo makes great-looking sustainable rugs, and now it’s taking a step into the furniture market with this new capsule collection by Sydney-based industrial designer Tom Fereday.
- Still dreaming about this light (hat tip: Fan).
- DWR’s Summer Event is happening through July 9, with 20 percent off in-stock products, free shipping sitewide (with code FREESHIP), and an additional 20 percent off sale prices (with code EXTRA20).
- From Margot: “Poet-collector Kostas Ananopoulos’s great antiques shop, Pidgin, has just launched a companion website equally wonderful for browsing and aesthetic reverie.”
- The Getty Villa museum is open again, six months after it closed during the Palisades fire.
- Style x sustainability: newly added facilities at Storm King (including wash sinks with a view).
- Finally, some good news in the news: Elizabeth Street Garden is saved! (For our story on the controversy, head here.)
- Has anyone tried this low-lift, good-smelling, all-natural mosquito-repelling hack?
- Normalize dining in streams, please.
- “Ngoc Minh Ngo’s story for The World of Interiors looks amazing, “writes Laura. Agreed!
- Also from Laura: on her wish list, the two-toned coreopsis that blooms for seven (!) weeks.
- The argument for welcoming potted plants into the garden.
- Easier to clean and arguably better-looking, too, than the average outdoor rug: Swedish rugs made from recycled plastic.
