THE BEST DESIGN DISCOVERIES For her first furniture collection, Analise Taft-Gersten, founder of the boutique-design-showroom brand ALT for Living, has teamed up with upholstery expert Jouffre on Jean Royère–inspired pieces, including this velvet Shadow chair, which lives up to its name with its elegant penumbra. If a Picasso from this fall’s blockbuster Christie’s auction was out of reach, try this French tapestry pillow cover by Jules Pansu—the only weaver allowed to replicate Picasso’s art—which features a reproduction of the artist’s 1962 work Woman in a Hat with Pompoms and a Printed Blouse. Reiko Kaneko had in mind the famed Edo period painter Katsushika Hokusai and classic Japanese calligraphy when she created this brushwork glaze on fine bone china. A collaboration between Artek and Heath Ceramics, the Tea Trolley 900 reenvisions…

BOOKS. FOOD.HOTELS. ENTERTAINING. NESTLED ON THE VALLEY FLOOR between the Si lverado ridge and Mayacamas Mountains, and bathed in the year-round warmth of California sunshine, lies the town of Yountville—what many have come to regard as the heart of Napa Valley. By comparison, New York City needs no introduction. The significance of these two locations is at the forefront of my mind as I reflect on the recent opening of two wildly different RH brand experiences. RH Yountville, an integration of food, wine, art, and design, is a five-building compound designed by Jim Gillam of the architectural firm Backen & Gillam. Woven together with intimate garden courtyards, century-old heritage olive trees, hand-carved French limestone fountains, outdoor fireplaces, and bluestone pathways set in decomposed granite, RH Yountville was created to celebrate…

GROWING UP ON THE ISLAND OF BALI in the 1980s, Elora Hardy was surrounded by people who had the gift of transforming natural materials into beautiful things. She observed local women weaving prayer offerings out of palm leaves. A family friend, the interior designer Linda Garland, was designing chunky bamboo furniture for such clients as Mick Jagger. Meanwhile, Hardy’s father—the renowned Canadian jeweler John Hardy—was fashioning small treasures out of precious metals. Determined to become a designer herself, Hardy headed to New York, where she created fabric patterns for Donna Karan. In 2008, she returned to Bali to help her father build the Green School, an elementary school with an emphasis on environmental educat ion and a campus made of sustainable bamboo. The experience inspired Hardy to found her Bali-based…

AFTER WORLD WAR I ENDED in 1918, the Rothschilds apparently grew tired of crossing into Switzerland for ski trips. The famed banking family took their business just outside Megève, a mountain town near Mont Blanc, the highest peak in the Alps, which they turned into France’s answer to St. Moritz. Today, the chalets that pepper the powdery landscape, like this one designed by Chamonix-based architect Alain Mazza, are still a draw for the international jet set. Located three miles outside of Megève and perched over the town of Praz-sur-Arly, the home’s sylvan interiors were designed by Nathalie Oddo and Anne Gernez. Their vision? A vast, almost ascetic space, brimming with light and open-ended rooms, that treats the architecture as an equal. Color and pattern are mostly elided in favor of…

Digital Director “I’m one of those people who gets bored at the beach, so in January I dream of great skiing followed by a fireside evening, a delicious meal, and a good book.” FLESH LIPCOLOR “My rule with lipstick is to pick a matte shade in the brightest red, orange, or pink you can find—and wear it with total confidence.” $20. ulta.com THE WHITE HART INN “A cozy winter getaway near the Berkshires in Massachusetts.

THIS FALL, THE DESIGN WORLD lost a member of its royal family: H.R.H. the Prince of Chintz, Mario Buatta. Mario possessed an incredible drive and passion that made him one of the first celebrities in the field. He astonished many by running his business virtually singlehandedly and, in later years, by his resilience in bouncing back from various ailments. His last moments were peaceful as a few of us gathered around him in the intensive-care unit, the sounds of Peggy Lee, Blossom Dearie, and his latest favorite, Melody Gardot, emanating from an iPhone speaker. The next day, as I was hit by the absoluteness of his loss—there would be no more phone calls, no more jokey e-mails—I found great comfort in the outpouring of admiration from his legions of fans.…

DESIGN FOR THE FASHIONABLE LIFE LONG BEFORE And y Sachs, the protagonist in the 2006 film The Devil Wears Prada, referred to her fellow Runway magazine staffers as “the clackers” because of the sound their stilettos made on the floors of the company’s lobby, Christian Louboutin had tuned his ear to the musicality of shoes. “When I hear a woman coming, I know what kind of shoe she’s wearing,” says the French designer. (For this reason he detests clogs, whose sound he equates with the clopping of a donkey.) Since 1991, Louboutin’s eponymous footwear line has been the go-to for fashionable women, thanks to his impeccably pitched, often fantastical styles, not to mention those signature red soles (an internationally protected trademark). Now, he is presenting even more rarefied pieces with…

IF YOU ARE DESIGNING A BOUTIQUE with the intent of luring technologically overwhelmed customers away from their glowing screens and into the light of day, the worst thing you can do, according to starchitect Peter Marino, is offer them a blank, white space. “That’s not enough to get me off the internet,” he says. “I like to give people something more aspirational, inspirational, prettier, and more glamorous.” Leading by example, Marino has created a newly redone Chanel store on 57th Street in New York. Its every luxurious detail reflects the brand’s aesthetic heritage. The building’s facade of white printed glass and black metal nods to the French house’s signature use of tweed, while a 60-foot-high central installation by Jean-Michel Othoniel reinterprets founder Gabrielle “Coco” Chanel’s beloved pearl necklaces in mirrored…

IT SEEMS ONLY FITTING that the fashion designer Jorge Vázquez would use a sartorial analogy to describe the sense of certainty and destiny he felt upon seeing his Madrid apartment for the first time. “I had the sensation that this home had been waiting for me—it felt like a tailored suit,” says the Spanish native, who designs playfully feminine ready-to-wear as well as haute-couture fashions under the brand JV by Jorge Vázquez. Situated in the city’s trendy Justicia neighborhood, the 19th-century apartment is—thanks to Spanish interior designer Amaro Sánchez de Moya—both an expression of Vázquez’s aesthetic personality and a respite from the relentless pace of his professional life. It also nods to the space’s previous owner, an antiquarian. For instance, in the robin’s-egg-blue living room, the eclectic furnishings include everything…

IN NOVEMBER, I was sitting with my friends Caitlin and Samuel Dowe-Sandes in Marrakech, in their exquisitely tiled home, eating raisin toast with foie gras (Caitlin makes the best). The duo, whose homes have been publ ished in ELLE DECOR since they started their design line Popham, recently refurbished another house in the medina, which they use as a showcase for their line of furnishings and rugs, Popham+. You can check out all the glory on page 78 (you’re welcome, Pinterest). Being an expat isn’t always easy—especially an American one, and most especially in the times we’re living in (I should know—I’ve done extensive stints in France and Qatar). Over the last 12 years, Caitlin, Samuel, and their precocious seven-year-old daughter, Georgina, have witnessed the rapid international expansion that has…

WHAT TO SEE, READ, AND DO RIGHT NOW ON VIEW Latin Lines There’s certainly no shortage of architects working today, but those with a unique perspective can be harder to find. Then you discover Freddy Mamani, whose psychedelic neo-Andean buildings have been popping up around El Alto, Bolivia (left). You can’t look at this photograph, currently on display in the exhibition “Southern Geometries, from Mexico to Patagonia” (through February 24), at Fondation Cartier in Paris, and not be inspired by the imaginative work of this former bricklayer–turned–civil engineer. For this 250-piece survey of Latin American art, architecture, and design, Mamani also created a multicolored ballroom that harks to his South American heritage (by way of Vegas). It makes us want to go straight to the Andes to behold his wildly inventive,…

As a 21-time Grand Slam winner in singles and doubles combined, the trailblazing tennis champion Venus Williams is accustomed to going big on a large stage. The same ethos applies to her Florida-based firm V Starr Interiors, which, since 2002, has made its name with eclectic projects that encompass everything from grand condominiums to athletic facilities and stadium decor for schools like Williams College, in Massachusetts. “I’m doing something I love that can touch a lot of people’s lives,” explains Williams, who was first drawn to interiors as a teenager and has degrees in both business administration and fashion design (she also runs the athletic-apparel line EleVen). She’ll be extending her reach with V Starr’s latest endeavors, the luxury Miami residence Blue Lagoon and a Kissimmee, Florida, apartment complex for…

HOW DO YOU TAKE your oysters? Chilled and on the half shell tends to be the answer. Me, I prefer to cook them. It seems sacrilegious for, say, a preppy kid summering in Nantucket, but the truth is that not everyone knows how to open them, which, if not done correctly, can result in cuts and ensanguined aprons. To cook oysters is to escape the shucking, so warm them up, allowing them to open slowly, until they almost let out a yawn. Of course, this is not to say that I never serve oysters cold—not at all—but they just taste better my way. Leave the oysters in the shell and place on a bed of salt, which will help them heat from the bottom up. To secure them, create a…

TWELVE YEARS AGO, Caitlin and Samuel Dowe-Sandes headed to Marrakech from Los Angeles with the plan to take a year off from their careers in public relations and filmmaking, respectively, and indulge in an adventurous sabbatical. From the start, they fell in love with Morocco’s artisan culture: the pierced-sheet-metal lanterns; the Beni Ourain hand-knotted abstract rugs; the embroidered leather poufs. Within weeks, they bought a small three-bedroom riad, in a mosque complex within the dusty pink walls of Marrakech’s old town, and started to renovate the interiors, working with local craftspeople to design and make bespoke furniture and lighting. Instead of just buying traditional cement tiles for the floors, they decided to design their own, creating a black-and-white squiggle pattern for the living-room floor and a coral-branch one for the…

Each month, ELLE DECOR asks an artisan to create a unique item for us. At the end of the year, these pieces will be auctioned off to benefit the charity of each maker’s choice. Historically intended to act as a person’s seal of approval, signet rings are traditionally engraved with a family crest or symbol that its owner could dip in melted wax like a stamp. Trust the jewelry designer Roberto Coin, known for his contemporary take on Italian craftsmanship, to put a mesmerizing spin on this classic trope with the ring he created exclusively for ED. Coin immortalized his hometown of Venice in an enameled vista of the city’s famous Rialto Bridge—complete with a gondola—that crowns the diamond-and-gold bauble like a beautiful painting. As with all of his designs,…
