Not long ago the couple, who together run the design firm Hein & Cozzi, put down permanent […]

With its thoughtful touches, appealing quirks, and cozy rooms, the home feels very much rooted in place and heritage, as if it has been knocking around for generations. Turns out, […]

It’s true: There are some old traditions that can’t be improved by technology or time (and definitely not AI). Lately the Gardenista editors are looking to the old ways for gardening inspiration—slower, more intentional, and inherently […]

They’re powerful, cost effective, and environmentally responsible heaters for your home. Many of these new stoves combine the best of the old (baking/warming shelves, wood storage) with new technologies that greatly reduce ash, carbon emissions, […]

It’s due to a new film, Wicker, in which a lonely fisherwoman (Olivia Coleman) commissions a local basketmaker to weave her a husband. Let’s just say her affair with her wicker suitor (played by Alexander Skarsgård) is bringing new, unexpectedly steamy attention to an old art. We get it. […]

]]> https://www.remodelista.com/posts/best-wicker-woven-baskets/ We’ve seen, and admired, a lot of transparent lights of late (see: A Ghostly Cloth Pendant Light, for example, highlighted in this very column). But let’s take a moment for this floor lamp version, spotted in our recent tour of Campbell House: A Restoration-First Renovation by Nüüd Studio. Read on… The Sighting The Source For […]

]]> https://www.remodelista.com/posts/transparent-floor-lamps-reconnaissance/ Inspired by Margot’s post a while back on the stellar, nontraditional kitchens she spotted on the websites of European real estate firms, I found myself perusing the listings of my favorite U.K. agency, The Modern House, and there, I came across an especially dreamy offering: a rambling two-acre, multi-building property purchased by a pair of […]

His singular focus and lifelong commitment? “Rigorously simple” design. About his work, which ranges in scale and type: “Whether at the scale of a monastery, a house, a saucepan, or a ballet, everything is traceable back to […]

On our calendar: hot cider with a celebrated artist, an exciting new book by a longtime contributor, a stunning exhibit at the most beautiful cemetery in NYC, and other eerily good autumn news.

In this installment: Every room needs an element of black.

]]> https://www.remodelista.com/posts/dark-moody-finds-for-autumn/ This past March, The Wall Street Journal‘s “Craft Retreats Are the New Burnout Cure” caught our attention. It’s something we’ve noticed among friends, too: traveling to Sicily to finally take up basketry from a favorite weaver, making cheese and yogurt in the Basque mountains, and so forth. This style of travel is not for the […]

]]> https://www.remodelista.com/posts/creative-craft-retreats-around-the-world/ Our love for light-filled, airy interiors is well-documented, but every once in a while, we encounter moody, sexy spaces that tempt us to the dark side—like this culinary lair from deVOL designed for a couple who live in Petersham, a small village on the Thames, not far from London. The owners wanted a space that […]

We particularly love the wooden boxes latched to the backs of the rush-seat chairs, each one stocked with reading material. But what’s their story? Read on: The Sighting The Source Want something similar? Reach out to Louie directly via […]

]]> https://www.remodelista.com/posts/cremer-cafe-london-book-box-idea/ I love putting a movie on the “big screen”—AKA the TV. Much better and more atmospheric than a laptop. But I don’t love the idea of having a screen front and center in our living area. In fact, none of us on the Remodelista team do—we’ve written before about ways to hide the television, with […]

And because this is a designer who often describes physical spaces as poetry (see Expert Advice: […]

]]> https://www.remodelista.com/posts/current-obsessions-simple-and-great/ Back in 2010, the founders of Fantastic Frank sized up standard real estate broker fare and vowed to do things better. Sharing a love of architecture and design, the four friends committed to being selective not only about the properties they sell but how they’re presented: from the start, teams of stylists and fashion photographers […]

Turns out, their mastermind is a 9-year-old. Well, kind of. We recently asked Marjory Garrison, who co-owns the L.A.-based lighting studio with her husband, Brendan Ravenhill, for the origin story behind the Peek Sconce Switch Colorblock collection: “We’d worked on developing […]

]]> https://www.remodelista.com/posts/inness-new-york-yellow-paint-color-remodelista-reconnaissance/ The kitchen is more than a place to cook. It’s where mornings begin, and days end—a place for conversation, sharing meals, gathering, and working. It’s one of the most lived-in rooms in the house, and the most appealing kitchens tend to feel like rooms rather than collections of equipment. The balance is in choosing appliances […]

]]> https://www.remodelista.com/posts/dacor-kitchen-appliances-for-daily-life/ Two years ago, we shared the sensitively renewed “bush modernist” home of architect Brad Mitchell and interior designer Kerli Valk—a thoughtful renovation that won a 2023 Australian Interior Design Awards Commendation and a 2023 Houses Award for Sustainability. Now the couple, founders of Melbourne-based Nüüd Studio, have produced another award-winning design by following the same […]

And “Things We Carry”, an exhibition of mended […]

]]> https://www.remodelista.com/posts/current-obsessions-the-artists-eye/ Stone is a natural resource that’s been used in interiors since before the wheel was invented. Though durable and costly—not to mention inimitably patterned and textured—it’s almost never thought of as reusable. But it should be say the eco-minded team behind Retrouvius, a combination salvage company and design studio in London’s Kensal Green that lead […]

]]> https://www.remodelista.com/posts/how-to-use-reclaimed-stone-in-interiors-tips-from-retrouvius/ We love every inch of this compact 14-by-10-foot kitchen in the Peckham neighborhood of London. Designed by architect Jonathan Nicholls and his partner, Alex Randall, a lighting designer, it occupies the rear extension of their Victorian home. While many architects find the experience of designing their own home an existential nightmare, Nicholls found it be […]

]]> https://www.remodelista.com/posts/kitchen-of-the-week-plywood-cabinets-jonathan-nicholls-london/ It’s been over a decade since a relatively fringe 1700s religious sect—the Shakers—found unlikely ubiquity in the modern world. It started with Shaker peg rails (this story, originally published in 2013, took us by surprise when it went wild). Then “Shaker-style kitchen cabinets” became a household term. A New York City restaurant, a French bakery, […]

]]> https://www.remodelista.com/posts/shaker-design-continued-trend/ Whenever I am in Europe, I marvel at the ease and routine nature of air drying ones clothing. Here in the States, it’s all too typical to toss your laundry into an energy-consuming tumble dryer while ultimately weakening fibers and dulling colors. Here, we profile 10 floor-standing air drying racks large enough to double as […]

]]> https://www.remodelista.com/posts/10-easy-pieces-floor-standing-air-drying-racks/ The source of this week’s Reconnaissance may not be much of a mystery to design lovers in the know. Still, we’re compelled by this light every time we see it—and if ever there were a piece guaranteed to punch up a space, this would be it. Today we highlight this always fresh, always timeless light—and […]

]]> https://www.remodelista.com/posts/noguchi-akari-black-and-white-lamp-sourced/ On the rugged coast of Scotland’s Isle of Mull, a small stone cottage sits just feet from the chilly water. The old bothy was a fisherman’s refuge and a sheep pen before it was purchased by Peter Harford-Cross’s family, who used it as a camping-style accommodation for years. Recently, though, the architect and his partner […]

]]> https://www.remodelista.com/posts/current-obsessions-high-low/ I first was notified of designer Hanna Wiegers’ impeccable taste when I rented a workspace across from hers in Portland, Maine. I was a year out from my wedding, and she showed me photos of hers, which was a whos-who of makers, designers, and creatives I’d come to know and love over the years at […]

]]> https://www.remodelista.com/posts/maine-farmhouse-restoration-tour-hanna-wiegers/ Recently, Fan and I were on the phone, exclaiming over glimpses of Julianne Moore’s New York City apartment. Julianne is a longtime source of inspiration—she wrote the foreward for the original Remodelista book way back in 2009, and her 1840s townhouse kitchen is still a touchstone for us. Unsurprisingly, her new kitchen captivated, too: green-topped […]
