@as4d E L L E D E C O R 24 E D I TO R ’S L E T T E R FROM LEFT: MARCUS MORRIS; FÉLIX DOL MAILLOT W elcome to our first-ever Debuts Issue! The idea for this edition of the magazine came out of conversations Team ELLE DECOR began a year ago, after spending much of the previous winter in pandemic isolation. Last spring, we were all hungering to capture the effervescence of that optimistic “now what?” moment. We also wanted to create a platform for new talent working across interiors, object design, and more. The result of all that thinking and planning is the magazine you now hold in your hands: an all-out lovefest for emerging currents and talents in the world of design. What unites everything in these pages is a spirit of joy, irreverence, and curiosity, together with a fearlessness about working in new ways. Our cover story certainly embodies all of the above. I’ve been a fan of Paris-based Uchronia—and its particular blend of playfulness, bold color, and smart historical references—since I first met the principals of this design studio in the fall of 2021. The interiors project we are featuring is their renovation of a classic Haussmannian apartment in Paris, whose daring new scheme was inspired by gemstones and precious metals. The result, with its jewel-toned dégradé walls and daring furniture choices, is THE DEBUTS ISSUE a breath of fresh air. This buzzy studio is clearly going places. Also this month, in a portfolio entitled “Next Up!” we introduce eight on-the-rise interior design talents whose work we’re especially excited about right now—and each of them has been shot by photographers who are themselves up-and-comers. The designers we chose to highlight—several of whom have projects appearing in this very issue—are all being featured in ELLE DECOR for the first time. So sit down. Get comfortable. The show is about to begin. ◾ The living room of a Paris apartment revamped by local studio Uchronia (page 62).

An 1834 former seed store in Charleston is reborn as a flagship for the Juliska home-decor brand. SHOP: CHARLESTON TABLE TALK With its mouth-blown glassware and floral ceramics, homewares line Juliska epito- mizes gracious living. Now the lifestyle brand has a home of its own: a 4,000- square-foot flagship in an 1834 former seed store on Charleston’s King Street. Capucine De Wulf Gooding, who founded Juliska with her husband, David Gooding, moved from Connecticut to the South Carolina city in 2001. “There is a sense of hospitality and tradition here, and everyone entertains,” she says. Designed with Douglas Little and Patti Wilborne, the flagship has a Bohemian Bar devoted to Czech glassware and a studio for “romantic arts” workshops like calligraphy and mixology. Coming soon: a garden café with lunch and tea served on Juliska dishes. As for those striking flower displays? “They’re by my mom, Vicky Cameron,” De Wulf Gooding says. —Ingrid Abramovitch juliska.com VISIT: LITTLE ROCK PLEATS, PLEASE For a unique cultural excursion this spring, put Arkansas on your itinerary. Last month, the capital, Little Rock, saw the reopening of the Arkansas Museum of Fine Arts with an impressively revitalized campus designed by Studio Gang with landscape firm SCAPE. The museum, which has undergone several expansions over its 86-year history, is now united by a breathtaking pleated roof, allowing visi- tors to fully experience the breadth of its permanent collection of works on paper, regional art, and more. “We realized we needed something new and exciting,” says architect Jeanne Gang of her eye-catching design. The inaugural exhibition, “Together,” will feature works by artists Elias Sime, Ryan RedCorn, LaToya Hobbs, and others. —Anna Fixsen arkmfa.org THEAGENDA What’s shaping our tastes and topping our to-do lists this month.

BOOKS READ THE ROOM! This season’s authors range from design giants to new voices. Here are five of our favorites. —Bebe Howorth DINE: PARIS BETTER TOGETHER Perched atop the Institut du Monde Arabe (IMA) is Paris’s hottest new restaurant— Dar Mima, a Laura Gonzalez–designed confection from Laurent de Gourcuff, founder of hospitality group Paris Society, and French actor Jamel Debbouze. Named for and in tribute to Debbouze’s mother, Fatima, the space was conceived as a bridge between Moroccan and French cultures. Gonzalez mirrored the iconic metal moucharabies that adorn the IMA’s wooden facade, then expanded on her opulent concept with wood marquetry, marble, hand-painted frescoes in gold leaf, decorative plasterwork on the ceilings, and, of course, lots of pattern. —Sean Santiago darmima-restaurant.com SEE: NEW YORK CITY TALENT SHOW Launched in 2016, the Loewe Foundation Craft Prize has rapidly become a harbinger of greatness. This May, the work of the current crop of 30 finalists will go on display in the late artist Isamu Noguchi’s studio across the street from the Noguchi Museum in Long Island City—the first time a public exhibition has been staged in the space. Pieces on view include those by Tanya Aguiñiga, working in terra-cotta and synthetic hair; Claire Lindner, with glazed stoneware; and Liam Lee, whose felt and plywood chair evokes natural forms, provoking “a feeling of semi- recognition,” he says. The prize’s panel of experts wanted to explore craft beyond its traditional definitions this year, and it shows. —S.S. noguchi.org FROM LEFT: Buisson n°2 by Claire Lindner; Chair 11 by Liam Lee.

E L L E D E C O R 38 W H AT ’S N E X T MA X Z AMBELLI L aunching an entirely new cate- gory as a heritage furniture company requires both respect for one’s roots and a vision for the future. MolteniC’s creative director, Vincent Van Duysen, certainly had this in mind while working on the brand’s debut outdoor collection. For Van Duysen, Molteni’s extensive archives were a huge source of inspiration: An entire seating line arose from Luca Meda’s Palinfrasca sofa, origi- nally designed in 1994, while Gio Ponti’s classic D.150.5 chaise longue and the D.154.2 armchair have been reissued with an eye to sustainability. Van Duysen also looked to contemporary designers Foster + Partners and Ron Gilad to reinterpret, respectively, the Arc dining table in a cement finish and the Panna Cotta side tables in iron and lava stone. Van Duysen’s own suite of furniture, Timeout, consists of a sofa, lounge, and dining furniture with elements of woven polypropylene rope. “The collection is defined by an innate sense of savoir faire,” chief marketing officer Giulia Molteni says. “There is a strong emphasis on craftsmanship, delving into the rich tradition of Italian design.” By striking the right balance between legacy and modernity, MolteniC’s migration outdoors is poised for success, Italian style. —Parker Bowie Larson RENAISSANCE ALFRESCO An Italian brand’s new outdoor collection is a breath of fresh air.

40 E L L E D E C O R J E W E L RY B OX High-jewelry necklace from Bulgari’s Mediterranea collection in pink gold with turquoise, diamonds, rubellites, and sapphires. Price upon request. bulgari.com SWEPT AWAY The Roman jewelry house Bulgari may be most famous for the iconic Serpenti line, which celebrated its 75th birthday this spring. But while the snake is synony- mous with the brand, it does not define it. Bulgari’s new high-jewelry collection, Mediterranea, makes this point spectacularly. Inspired by the sea, from its inky depths to its frothy coastline, the collection puts the house’s affinity for colored gemstones front and center. Take for example the 76 carats of pear rubellites dangling from this collar of pavé diamonds, offset by sapphires and turquoise. To quote a certain animated mermaid: “I just don’t see how a world that makes such wonderful things could be bad.” —Sean Santiago
E L L E D E C O R 42 TA L E N T PORTRAIT BY ZACHERY ALI EQUAL FOOTING Jean Lin, founder of the design co-op and showroom Colony, is taking the next step in her mission to foster emerging talent. ALTRUISM IS A DAILY PRACTICE, A MUSCLE waiting to be tensed and strengthened. For Jean Lin, the founder of the New York City showroom and design co-op Colony, it’s a muscle she has dedicated her career to exercising. Colony launched in 2014 with a collective business model that eschews industry standards in favor of minimal commissions and a monthly membership fee; Lin is now expanding the scope of her mission with the debut of a residency program for emerging tal- ent. The first collections are on view at the showroom through May 5. The incubator program pays for residents’ studio spaces while offering a curriculum, real-time feedback on works in progress, and part-time duties on the showroom floor. It’s a pressure cooker, but “pressure creates the best work,” says Lin, whose own career path was far from straightforward. Lin studied psychology at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, later working in social services and then in fashion—her first paying job was for J.Lo’s now defunct clothing line. A pivot to editorial work scratched her itch for creative expres- sion, but it wasn’t until Reclaim NYC, a charity furniture auction she cofounded in the wake of Hurricane Sandy, that the idea for Colony really took shape: a perfect mar- riage of her artistic drive and philanthropic leanings. The daughter of Taiwanese immigrants, Lin was raised in a predominantly white town in Massachusetts and has always seen herself as an underdog. But reinvention takes a self-described “wiring for risk-taking” that has allowed her to grow Colony from a cash- strapped business into one that now offers interior design ser- vices and consulting; it is also often credited with nurturing the suc- cess of studios like Allied Maker and Egg Collective, both among Colony’s founding group of artists. “Maybe that’s why we’ve been in the game for so long,” Lin says. “I keep pushing. I don’t sit back and say, ‘I did it.’” —Lori Keong Jean Lin in a sweater by Akris. RIGHT: Marmar Noon valet, by Ingemar Hagen- Keith.

PROMOTION AMANDA RICHARDS DROPLET FLOOR LAMPS This floor lamp is sculpted from resin and pewter by Brooklyn-based designer, Amanda Richards. Her practice focuses on lighting as sculpture, utilizing recycled materials. Vintage metal objects are revived by melting pewter and letting the substance flow in its organic form.

1 2 E L L E D E C O R 46 H O U S E C A L L BY SEAN SANTIAGO PHOTOGRAPHS BY LAURE JOLIET STYLED BY NATASHA LOUISE KING FOR DETAILS, SEE RESOURCES LET’S GET LOUD Designer Leah Ring crafts an outré oasis in the Southern California desert. A n exercise in letting go—that’s how the designer Leah Ring describes her Yucca Valley, California, home, a secondary residence she shares with her husband, the art- ist Adam de Boer. De Boer, in fact, proposed on the property, though one year and a renovation later, a rogue sandstorm blew through on the day of the nuptials, a fitting welcome to desert life if ever there was one. Ring—whose six-year-old Los Angeles– based studio, Another Human, works across residential and commercial interiors and prod- uct design—finds ample inspiration off the beaten (and sometimes brambly) path. Having studied under ELLE DECOR A-List designer Frances Merrill of Reath Design, she was well equipped to spot the potential in the com- pound, an atypical if otherwise unremarkable arrangement of four buildings just outside Joshua Tree National Park. “I didn’t want something that had been flipped,” she says. And flipped it was not: One of the buildings even lacked a foundation. Ring painted each a poppy hue and set about mani- festing “the most extreme version” of her taste throughout, designing a dynamic weekend retreat where she could replenish her creative juices while still being a stone’s throw from the city. The result of the yearlong renovation happily leaves timidity, well, in the dust. GO FOR BOLD 1. In the living room of the 560-square-foot primary house, the sconces are from Etsy, one of Leah Ring’s go-to sources. The custom sofa is upholstered in denim, and the cocktail table was made by Ring’s cousin. 2. The lavender dining table was fabricated by Objects for Objects. The bench cush- ion is upholstered in the same fabric as the curtains but in inverted colorways.

Vibrant color is one of Another Human’s hallmarks. While the exterior of the pri- mary residence is painted lavender—a nod to area sunsets—Ring’s favorite hue is an acidic shade of green. The lime green and aqua tile combination was one of her first design decisions for the property. It defines the kitchen, where the color scheme is echoed in the countertops by Cambria and is repeated in other tones in the primary bath- room. The Alno hardware coordinates with the back- splash, and the cabinet paint is Electric Slide by Benjamin Moore. The vase is by Bari Ziperstein; the Moroccan rug was sourced from Etsy. 4.

One of the structures on the compound is Ring’s home office. The facade is painted green, and the inte- riors are clad in a wallpaper that Ring had custom-made, working with Magic Murals on her selected source imagery and design; the desk was made by Fire on the Mesa. “It’s great for cre- ative work,” she says of the space. “But it’s so fun, it can be hard to concentrate.”

E L L E D E C O R 53 B U I L D E R PAUL DYER BY KATHRYN O’SHEA-EVANS A view into a nursery by Marea Clark in Diablo, California, with scalloped valances and taupe curtains over gold oak cribs. START ’EM YOUNG Raising a decorating genius? A bold nursery is a good way to begin.
E L L E D E C O R 54 B U I L D E R FR AN PARENTE/OT TO A t the risk of offending a flotilla of momfluencers, I’ll say it: Having an aesthetically flawless nursery does not matter. Not to the baby, at least. “We have to remember when we design these rooms that we’re human animals,” says New York designer and mother of three Celerie Kemble. “And the less perfect an environment, the more tolerant and flexible the child. Probably.” To be clear, Kemble nurseries are fantastical visions that could have been dreamed up by Ludwig Bemelmans himself. But she tries to pare them back as much as possible. “The people who spent four months of their pregnancy buying everything they’re supposed to buy and getting lists from friends, I think they just end up with a wretched child,” she says. “It can’t sleep in daylight. A cold baby wipe on its butt and the night’s over!” Not that there isn’t plenty to aspire to. A nursery is part of your child’s entrée into the wider world, so a whiff of Custom color-blocked cabinets, a Moroso rocking chair, and a Cassina side table in a New York City nursery by Ashe + Leandro. fabulousness is to be encouraged. One key, designers say, is to splurge on the things that will last. New York designer Rodney Lawrence recently sheathed the room of an Upper East Side firstborn in a silver-leaf de Gournay wallcovering bursting with mauve, pale lavender, and plum cherry blossoms. Once the crib—in this case, a brushed brass and shagreen piece from Kifu Paris—and other accoutrements are gone, you have “a beautiful wallcovering in a room that you can convert back to something else, or it can go to the next stage in the child’s life.” Designer Thomas Jayne likewise urges clients to invest in grown-up furniture pieces that can mature with their child rather than throwaway options. Appropriately bolted to the wall and topped with a changing pad, a Louis Philippe burl-walnut chest can function as a changing table, then easily transition back. In lieu of a bulbous glider, a storied rocking chair “gives some soul to the room.” Jayne himself grew up with a lithograph by Grant Wood in his childhood bedroom that’s now proudly displayed in his SoHo loft, and he always suggests that his clients invest in one piece of art that can be toted along with their kid through life: “It doesn’t necessarily have to be expensive, but it’s best if it’s not overtly juvenile.” When he was designing the nurseries for his two chil- dren, Atlanta designer Vern Yip opted for choices that would stand the test of time, including antiques culled from trips abroad (like an 18th-century lamb from a Nativity set bought in Barcelona) and paintings that he and his husband commissioned from classically trained artist James Way. More than a decade later, all their choices have held up. “The only difference is, there are no longer cribs,” he says. Above all, safety is paramount in a nursery. A sense of uncluttered spaciousness also helps—for the child and also for parents during those brutal 2 a.m. feedings. “Make it a nice environment for weird hours,” Kemble says. “A baby is in a state of larval ignorance for the first couple of years, and then all they really want by ages two and three is space. The more you dazzle them with sophisticated toys when they’re little, the greater the turnip you’re going to raise.” When my own son, Guy, was born in 2020, there was a lot of freshman-year upheaval for my husband and me to con- quer on little sleep: diapering, breastfeeding, swaddling. The one thing we could control with a surgeon’s precision was his nursery, where we hung a wallpaper panel of the Virginia countryside behind his blond wood crib and trotted out hand- made toy sheep from Minnesota, a holdover from my own childhood. As soon as Guy could form a coherent sentence, however, he asked me to take the wall panel down—he didn’t like its toothy horse and thought it would bite him in his sleep. Now that he’s a toddler, we’ll never have that sense of control we thought we had when we welcomed him into the nursery. His cuteness, though, is guaranteed to remain. ◾

E L L E D E C O R 58 P O I N T O F V I E W BY MONA SIMPSON THE INTERIOR ARCHIVE X TRUNK ARCHIVE/ JOANNA MACLENNAN BUY,KEEP,TOSS,ENJOY After years of Sunday-morning flea-market trips, a writer discovers her past in the things she decided to hold on to.
E L L E D E C O R 59 F or many years, I set my alarm to ring at five on Sunday mornings. I’d slip out of bed, leave my young husband sleeping, and dress in the dark. My friend Anna waited outside in an SUV. We drove on the empty streets of our Southern California neighborhood to the coffee shop, which was supposed to open at six but rarely did. If luck was on our side, we carried out extra-large lattes for the drive and arrived at the flea markets just before seven—Pasadena City College on the first weekend of the month; Rose Bowl, the second; Long Beach, the third; and Santa Monica Airport, the fourth—just as the vendors, many of whom we knew by name, were setting up their stalls. We strolled the aisles slowly. It was our time to talk. Our problems and our hopes were legion. Anna and I were just beginning our home lives. She had two boys; I had one. I’d begun my life as a swap-meet goer in college when I’d rented a cottage in Berkeley, California, that was sur- rounded by berry bushes. My preference was for waffles with more berries than batter, but the juice from them wrecked an electric waffle maker after only a few months. I found an old cast-iron over-the-burner contraption at the swap meet for a dollar. Anna and I thought about our kids’ rooms especially. I found two French faux-bamboo twin beds, a freestanding blackboard, some thick homespun calico for duvet covers. Anna zeroed in on old toy trucks: She planned to devote the whole backyard of the rental house to a sandbox. We bought for bargain prices and for beauty. We had no heirlooms yet. We wanted our homes, even rented, to be beautiful and to feel settled. Sometimes we didn’t find anything to buy, but I can’t remember ever returning home without new resolves. On those flea-market Sundays, time seemed to stretch. We had the hour there and the hour back in the car for con- versations, which seemed to wind and climb. We talked while we shopped too, with interruptions for bargaining. Our husbands were often the subject. They didn’t do enough, we thought. Both brilliant men, ambitious in their work; less ambitious, we felt, in the energies devoted to communal family life. We thought seriously and philosoph- ically: about marriage, about motherhood, about work. Time, as it turned out, was what we never had enough of. We also bought gifts. Being previously owned seemed to make an object more unique. Though these presents weren’t exchangeable, they were one of a kind and not directly trace- able to a price. We loved Miriam Haskell’s jewelry, vintage necklaces, and earrings from the 1930s and ’40s. They were just expensive enough to be special but still affordable in the way “real” jewelry would not have been then. Vintage Christ- mas tree ornaments were favorite gifts. As were old dowels, which could be grouped together to make stunning meno- rahs. I found a vintage printed felt skirt for the tree. Sometimes we returned to houses where everyone was still sleeping. So as not to wake up slumbering families, we’d meet later to carry the larger items in. It felt like magic to slip back into bed—after having had an adventure, figuring out a possible solution to this week’s urgent problem, and buying a set of Swedish crystal wineglasses—and to have missed nothing at all. Then the time came for us to move into permanent homes. Little by little, we furnished them. Not all at once, our Sunday runs to the flea markets became less regular. The kids began to have practices and tournaments and dance competitions on weekends, which required early wake-ups for other kinds of drives. Besides, our houses had become settled. Eventually, Anna and I became obsessed—along with everyone else with older children who’d grown up in one house—with decluttering. We wanted less: We donated; we organized; we purged. Now our children live in their own apartments, and Anna and I see them for dinner, the way we see our friends. But we haven’t returned to the flea markets. Sunday morn- ings, now, we each make coffee and sit at our desks, reading scenes we’ve written for books, looking for patterns. Novels and memoirs, like homes, are made of many scraps from different places and times and are also dependent on the art of arrangement. But we still live among things found during those dawn runs out of our houses, when our families slept. A dispro- portionate number of things from the flea market survived our many purges. Anna now lives in a high-rise in Brooklyn; it pleases me to recognize her Gustavian corner cupboard and four small Craftsman-framed photographs and to remember the stalls they came from. When I walked through my own house to remember what had come from the markets, I found treasures in every room. ◾ Mona Simpson is a best-selling novelist whose new book, Commitment (Knopf), was recently released.

E L L E D E C O R 64 young, worldly couple moves into a classic Haussmannian building near Paris’s Champs- Élysées and is faced with a choice: stay true to its 19th-century character, leaning into the high ceilings, marble mantels, and gracious rooms, or throw caution to the wind. One glance at its color-saturated rooms and it is evident which route this couple chose. It was Julien Sebban, the Paris-born founder of the four- year-old firm Uchronia, who helped the homeowners to demolish their comfort zone. Sebban, who was based in London for six years to study architecture, has quickly made a name for himself with spaces that tap into the zeitgeist with abandon. Most notable may be the restaurant Forest, opened last year at the Musée d’Art Moderne de Paris, and before that, Créatures, a pop-up eatery atop the Galeries Lafayette that’s since become a seasonal staple of the city’s dining and social scenes. The firm’s name is itself a neologism taken from Uchronie, the title of a book written by 19th-century French philosopher Charles Renouvier, referring to a hypothetical time period of our world. Sebban’s multidisciplinary collec- tive, then, is something of an anachronism, straddling our current moment and some whimsical, acid-tinged version of it hovering just beyond the scope of our peripheral vision. Uchronia’s signature use of outsize motifs, undulating lines, bright colors, and pattern have made each of its proj- ects an instant social-media star. “The homeowners wanted to keep the idea of a traditional Haussmannian apartment, but with crazy details,” says Sebban of the 2,600-square- foot space, situated in the tony Triangle d’Or district in the city’s 8th arrondissement. “So we kept the original layout and the floors but turned everything upside down.” The homeowners are both involved in the world of lux- ury and often entertain; their space needed to be designed to suit this lifestyle. Beyond that, they wanted everything to reference jewels and stones. “We imagined walking into our jewel box, each gem blown up to an architectural scale,” the wife says. “That is exactly what we got.” For Uchronia, this was a point of departure. The firm’s prodigious use of curves wouldn’t cut it—quite literally, in this instance, as the clients wanted elements of the inte- rior to look faceted, like gemstones. To create that feeling, the firm focused on the details: a mirror was added above the mantel, layers of Japanese gold leaf inset along its edges in emerald and aquamarine tints; custom hardware was designed to reference different stones—malachites, sap- phires, opals, and rubies; painted silk curtains, color- matched to each room’s jewel-toned walls, were specially commissioned from the artist Justin Morin. The dining room table was made in seven pieces so that it might be pulled apart. It seats 16, and the center can be removed and used as a side table for serving. All in all there are 40 legs, each of which is treated like a piece of jewelry, rendered from hammered steel. In the kitchen, the firm designed and fabricated its first-ever stained-glass win- dows; elsewhere, a custom dégradé wall treatment (a gradi- ent color scale that, unlike ombré, allows for a range of hues) was developed in collaboration with Atelier Roma and deployed in the living room in blue and in the dining room in a mossy green. “Where it was once banal,” the wife says, “it is now magic.” The clients eschewed editions; the apartment is fur- nished with vintage finds from auctions and the Paris flea market, alongside custom Uchronia pieces. In total, the proj- ect took seven months devoted exclusively to design and decoration. “Their free spirit spoke to us,” the wife says of Sebban and his team. “When we met Julien, we knew that he could translate our specific interests, our desires, our way of living into a wonder-filled home that felt like us.” What could be more classic than that? ◾

71 E L L E D E C O R
e all love a bit of theater in our lives, but it’s got to be the right kind. For New York–based interior designer Casey Kenyon, the best spaces m i x drama with comfort. So it was fitting that one of his first clients, Stephen Sposito, was a theater director who commissioned Kenyon to design his studio in Hell’s Kitchen. In the four years since the designer founded his firm, Studio Kenyon, he has swiftly gained a reputation for creating layered interiors with equal parts showmanship and sensitivity. He developed his eye first by working as an assistant to Marc Jacobs, helping the fashion designer while he was decorating his Greenwich Village home. “Casey is supportive, agile, and empathetic,” Jacobs says. “He absorbed my appreciation for things, researched them, and went further. He’s like a sponge.” Eventually, Kenyon set out on a design path, working initially for ELLE DECOR A-List firm Gachot Studios and then as design director at the trendsetting New York light- ing and furniture studio Apparatus. Sposito, who has been an assistant director on such Broadway shows as Wicked and The Book of Mormon and has directed operas, was a fan of Apparatus’s and noticed Kenyon’s work with the brand on Instagram. He reached out via direct message, and soon Kenyon had one of his firm’s earliest projects. The brief was to squeeze the most out of the studio apartment Sposito shares with his partner, Michael Brandley, and make it sing. But given the vagaries of his profession, he also needed Kenyon to be flexible. “We had to pause every so often and wait until I made a bit more money,” says Sposito, whose industry was hard hit during the pandemic. “And Casey was great about that.” Located in a 1911 building, the 1,000-square-foot studio had gained a small bedroom with a windowed wall in its previous iteration. Kenyon swapped out its frosted glass wall for clear, adding corduroy curtains that can be closed for privacy. When the draperies are drawn, “it’s like a warm cocoon,” Sposito says. For Kenyon, every project starts with an image. After gently dissuading Sposito from a quieter country aesthetic (think tiny stools and George Nakashima–esque furniture), the designer steered him in the polar-opposite direction toward a slick 1970s New York vibe. “In the city you need something that feels like a little city,” Kenyon says. He showed Sposito and Brandley a picture from a 1970s maga- zine story on the late philanthropist B. Gerald Cantor’s Manhattan apartment. Awash in browns and reds, that space had reflective surfaces and luscious textiles and a lighting scheme designed to be universally flattering. While he gave it his own spin, Kenyon stayed quite faith- ful to the slick and sensual 1970s palette. In the living room, a vintage Jean Prouvé daybed upholstered in an inky velvet now separates the living and dining areas; nearby, a metal sculp- ture by Val Bertoia (Harry Bertoia’s son) adds delicate balance; an Apparatus light above the burl-wood table speaks the same dynamic sculptural language. Meanwhile, in a corner, a monu- mental Rick Owens vessel makes a statement of its own. An Apparatus fixture hangs over a custom burl-wood table in the dining area. Vintage daybed by Jean Prouvé; metal sculpture (right) by Val Bertoia.
E L L E D E C O R 73 Design heavy hitters abound in the apartment, even if they are not front and center, like the Charlotte Perriand sconces scattered throughout the living and sleeping areas. Indeed, Kenyon endeavored not just to decorate, but also to help Sposito achieve his dream of becoming a collector. “I’ve always wanted to own great art and good furniture and antiques, but it seemed so out of reach for someone without tremendous wealth,” Sposito says. “Casey taught me that if you are passionate and into the hunt, deals can be found.” The de Sede sofa in the living area is just one of many examples of the thrill of the chase. Purchased from one of Kenyon’s friends, the piece was in shreds, so Sposito was able to buy it at a great price; it now looks brand new in its buttery suede upholstery. At the end of the day, this is still a compact studio apartment. But in Kenyon’s world, size doesn’t matter. To him, even a small space can be a stage for excitement. All it needs is the perfect plot. ◾

TIFFANYTHOMPSON photographedby MeronMenghistab For Tiffany Thompson of Duett Interiors, symbiosis is vital. The spaces she creates are a genuinely collaborative effort between designer and client. “It really isn’t about me,” Thompson says, “but about how my work can inspire others to be the best version of themselves.” Founded in 2019, her firm— based in Portland, Oregon—has crafted cozy, livable interiors for families from Minnesota to Miami. Pro athletes and sporting-goods institutions have become her most loyal clients, as she’s designed offices for Nike and homes for NBA stars like D’Angelo Russell. Later this year, she’ll be expanding her profile with the release of a line of furniture and homewares. duettinteriors.com

Their collaborations with decorative-arts stalwarts like silk manufac- turer Prelle meld the old with the new, making an argument for how the past can be zhuzhed to remain exciting and fresh. uchronia.fr Introducingeightgame-changingdesignstudios pushinginteriorsintothefuture—anddoingitwith witandoriginality.
ANGIEHRANOWSKY photographedbyWulfBradley Coming to interiors in 2008 from graphic design, Angie Hranowsky (see page 84) is no stranger to fusing the unexpected with the familiar. The work she executes out of her Charleston, South Carolina, studio runs the gamut from traditional family homes with a twist to riotous pieds-à-terre exploding with color. It’s research that grounds her. “I’m not formulaic in my approach,” Hranowsky says, “but I am forever curious.” With her mostly residential clients scattered through- out the United States, a devotion to balance and ease keeps her rooted: “Good design demands a freshness of vision, and it should feel effortless.” angiehranowsky.com

Even before founding his New York–based firm in 2019, he was uniquely adept at immersing himself in one period or style until he became an expert. With Studio Kenyon (see page 70), he has unleashed his talent within the realm of residential interiors, working with a diverse sta- ble of clients to create spaces that are as trans- portive and atmospheric as they are deeply personal. “My ideal is to design in a way where the client’s reality looks as good as pos- sible,” Kenyon says. To achieve this, he takes note of all the mundane details of life at home, turning them into an opportunity for visual stim- ulation, comfort, and surprise. caseykenyon.com

Now she offers a range of services, from creative direction and visual merchandising to interior architecture and branding. She is equally open-minded in the projects she takes on, designing anything from a Black-owned crab shack in Crown Heights, Brooklyn, to actor Adrian Grenier’s brownstone a few miles away. “We only work with people who share a similar ideology and a sense of social and environ- mental responsibility,” Bailey-Babenzien says. “That’s what keeps business personal and a pleasure.” thedreamawake.com
AUGUSTAHOFFMAN photographedbyYudiElaEchevarria The simplest interiors are often the hardest to pull off, but Augusta Hoffman (see page 92) has the refinement to make a little look like a lot. Founded in 2020, her epon- ymous New York–based firm has gained both clients and attention quickly, all due to her deliciously rich, devil-may-care aesthetic. Sumptuous textiles and burnished metals form the backdrop for rooms that inspire wonder without one knowing exactly why. “Design should be exploratory and enjoy- able,” Hoffman says. “Our spaces ultimately embrace elegance, but we never take our- selves too seriously.” augustahoffman.com
83 E L L E D E C O R STUDIOMUKA photographedbyCherilSanchez Ten years after meeting (and falling in love) at Pratt Institute’s architecture program, Zabie Mustafa (at left) and Neda Kakhsaz formed Studio Muka. Their multidisciplinary practice, based in Los Angeles, spans ground-up architec- ture as well as residential and commercial inte- rior and furniture design. Their work is rooted in location and history, with projects ranging from eco-friendly desert escapes to Brentwood homes with a Wiener Werkstätte edge. “We look at every project as an opportunity to learn something new,” says Kakhsaz, who previously worked with ELLE DECOR A-List firm Studio Shamshiri. “Discovery and experimentation are taken very seriously, but we’re also romantics. Design serves a function, but it should ultimately evoke feeling.” studio-muka.com

E L L E D E C O R 86 aine summers are mythic, its coastal cottages perhaps even more so. There are the shingled behemoths built by 19th-century rusticators, Greek Revival captain’s houses clustered in seaside villages, and simple fisherman’s shacks strung along the ocean’s edge. None of them interested Carolyn Evans as she scrolled through rental options from her Charleston, South Carolina, kitchen in the spring of 2020. “We’d never been to Maine, but friends had moved there to escape the Southern summers, and we were feeling that heat,” says Evans, a psychotherapist and author. Those friends happened to be Bill Bowick and David Bouffard, an architect duo who knew exactly what she and her husband, Ray, wanted. The couple had recently traded in a traditional 1840s Charleston “single” for a 1950s midcentury home, all angles, glass, and brick, with an open floor plan. “I just love a straight line,” Evans says she realized. “I have a hard time living with a curve.” Which is why the minute she opened an email from her friends with a listing for a rental house on Maine’s Deer Isle, she immediately booked it for the month of August. Built in 1968, the home is on 12 acres and overlooks the Atlantic Ocean and Crockett Cove. “It had me at the full glass front,” she says. “But the fact that it also sits on a huge piece of granite that hangs over the water? You can slip into nature without disturbing it.” Even better, it was designed by Emily Muir, an artist environmentalist, philanthropist, and self-taught architect whose homes were legendary. Her legacy is bound up in 45 modest cottages scattered in and around Crockett Cove at the tip of one of Maine’s storied peninsulas. She was instrumental in bringing to Deer Isle the esteemed Haystack Mountain School of Crafts, designed by the archi- tect Edward Larrabee Barnes. Between them, the pair put down Maine’s modernist roots with a shared vision: that every building be a showcase for the landscape. Muir died in 2003 at the age of 99. Evans eagerly moved in for what she thought was a month’s respite. But two weeks into the rental, she learned that the house was going on the market. “Muir’s places rarely come up for sale and are almost never as intact as this one,” she says. “So we made an offer, thrilled by the fact that we actually got to wake up there before signing any papers.” The couple and their two adult children, daughter Reese and son Marshall, were all on board with the deci- sion. By September, the place was theirs. In short order, Evans called Charleston-based interior designer Angie Hranowsky, whom she credits with cultivat- ing her love of midcentury modern architecture. The Maine house took Hranowsky’s breath away. “All you can do when you walk through the door is look outside,” she says. There was nothing she could do on the inside to compete with that view. So taking her cues from the original architect, she didn’t try. “Muir was not pretentious or flashy, and she cer- tainly wasn’t extravagant,” says the designer, who mostly restored what was there. She added a fresh coat of paint to the kitchen cabinets and covered the counters with new sheets of Formica. Where the floorboards were rotted, she matched new ones to the old. She furnished the rooms in classic Maine-cottage fashion, with a hodgepodge of pieces that seem like castoffs from a primary home. A pair of sofas was placed back-to-back, one facing the water, the other peering into a roaring fire. It is this sensitivity to environment that drew Evans to work with Hranowsky on the project, their third together. And it is likely what Muir, too, was after. “You can just feel her commitment to working with the land, whether you are looking at the house from the water or looking at the water from the house,” Evans says. Indeed, she was so inspired by the house that she relented on her straight-lines rule and left the curved vanity in the bathroom as is. “What was important to Muir,” she says, “is now important to me.” ◾ Homeowner Carolyn Evans with her daughter, Reese.

E L L E D E C O R 94 ny decorator can slap on a scenic wallpaper and call it a day. But when it came to designing her “first grown-up apartment,” New York City interior designer Augusta Hoffman wanted some- thing that would be unique. She reached out to James Mobley, a decorative artist in Los Angeles with whom she had never worked, and told him her vision. “I shared my dream of cov- ering the walls in a grisaille scenic mural,” she says. The result is one of the most unexpectedly romantic eat-in kitchens south of 14th Street, a moody and atmospheric space combining olive-green cabinetry, Mobley’s ethereal Hudson River Valley–inspired landscape, and spherical ala- baster pendants that evoke a pair of full moons. The entire apartment, a converted loft in an unprepos- sessing building on lower Broadway, is a testament to Hoffman’s deft hand with color, command of classical forms, and confidence in her aesthetic vision—attributes not often seen in a designer so young. The 31-year-old Dallas native founded her eponymous firm just five years ago but has already established a reputation for tailored, sophisticated small spaces grounded in classical architec- ture. Hoffman interiors tend to be pared back yet gently lay- ered, with a sober beauty that eschews campy old-world flourishes. Her most recognizable calling card is probably her palette: a slender, tonal range of subdued greens, creams, and ochers, with accents of black for depth. “I am still pushing myself to expand my colors!” she says. “But it’s true, I do love green. I think of it almost as a neutral.” Thanks to a prior gut renovation by the late Paul Fortune and ELLE DECOR A-List firm Gachot Studios, many of the apartment’s enhancements were already in place when Hoffman and her husband, Jonathan Swygert, pur- chased the place. “I loved the juxtaposition of the sort of ‘uptown’ finishes—the moldings, the traditional walnut- stained floors, the marble in the main bath—in the down- town environment,” she says. “You come off the bustling street and through our dingy lobby, but then the elevator directly opens into a warm, refined home.” The tranquil living room is proof positive of Hoffman’s approach to soft-spoken elegance. While its white-on-white scheme might at first seem in line with any number of chic living rooms, there’s more here than meets the eye. The walls, upholstery, and window shades are a carefully modu- lated combination of creams, whites, and pale beiges in a range of textures, avoiding the doldrums of spa-like mono- chromatism. “I hate when things are too matchy-matchy,” says Hoffman, who even chose a sofa and ottoman with a similar, but not identical, style of tufting. At the same time, Hoffman does appreciate the power of a hushed echo. Con- sider the monumental hand-painted Chinese screen above the living room sofa. One might imagine the landscape would compete with the mural in the kitchen—but it works. “They interact beautifully,” says Augusta Hoffman Studio designer Emma Stang, who collaborated with Hoffman on the apartment. “It’s as if they are in conversation.” Of course, acting on instinct is not enough to build a business. There’s the matter of listening to one’s clients— which in this case meant Swygert, who despite being

Hoffman’s longtime sweetheart (they’ve known each other since they were 12) had no intentions of giving his wife carte blanche over their new home. “I had a lot of opinions, and I didn’t exactly hold back,” he says. Most notably, Swy- gert, a product developer, wanted their bedroom to be more traditionally “masculine” than Hoffman had originally envi- sioned it. “I kept saying that I would love some area that felt more like mine, especially because I was going to be work- ing from the room as well,” he says. “I told Augusta that I hoped the bedroom could have the feel of a study, maybe even with a leather sofa.” (It may have been this point, he notes, at which “she called me her most difficult client.”) Hoffman admits to being skeptical, but she came through with the goods. She enveloped the walls with rich tobacco-colored Scalamandré grass cloth (“I love that organic, rusty color,” she says), installed a black marble mantel, splurged on a custom silk Diego Mardegan chande- lier, and even found a very handsome brown Arne Norell sofa for the foot of their bed. “What can I say?” she asks lovingly. “It was his dream.” ◾

104 E L L E D E C O R MY K I N D O F RO OM BART KIGGEN AN AUDIENCE WITH THE MAESTRO For designer Hannes Peer, an Italian architect’s singular legacy continues to inspire. “I tell all of my architecture students that they need to see Casa Mollino at least once in their lifetime. I originally visited the house in Turin, Italy, 10 years ago on a weekend trip. It is the perfect Gesamtkunst- werk and a master class in layering. Carlo Mollino was one of the first architects with an intentionally eclectic approach, putting Japanese design in conversation with Italian craft, or pairing Murano chandeliers with Saarinen chairs. He was able to tell so many stories at once in such a small space. His work encouraged me to dare with textures, to dare with colors, to go bold or go home. If you look at Casa Mollino with an open mind, it’s all there: the materials, the colors, the cinematography, the daring—the drama!” —As told to Camille Okhio The living room of Museo Casa Mollino, designed by Carlo Mollino, in Turin, Italy. carlomollino.org/ museo-casa-mollino

The idea for this edition of the magazine came out of conversations Team ELLE DECOR began a year ago, after spending much of the previous winter in pandemic isolation. Last spring, we were all hungering to capture the effervescence of that optimistic “now what?” moment. We also wanted to create a platform for new talent working across interiors, object design, and more. The result of all that thinking and planning is the magazine you now hold in your hands: an all-out lovefest for emerging currents and talents in the world of design. What unites everything in these pages is a spirit of joy, irreverence, and curiosity, together with a fearlessness about working in new ways. Our cover story certainly embodies all of the above. I’ve been a fan of Paris-based Uchronia—and its particular blend of playfulness, bold color, and smart historical references—since I first met the principals of this design studio in the fall of 2021. The interiors project we are featuring is their renovation of a classic Haussmannian apartment in Paris, whose daring new scheme was inspired by gemstones and precious metals. The result, with its jewel-toned dégradé walls and daring furniture choices, is THE DEBUTS ISSUE a breath of fresh air. This buzzy studio is clearly going places. Also this month, in a portfolio entitled “Next Up!” we introduce eight on-the-rise interior design talents whose work we’re especially excited about right now—and each of them has been shot by photographers who are themselves up-and-comers. The designers we chose to highlight—several of whom have projects appearing in this very issue—are all being featured in ELLE DECOR for the first time. So sit down. Get comfortable. The show is about to begin. ◾ The living room of a Paris apartment revamped by local studio Uchronia (page 62).

SHOP: CHARLESTON TABLE TALK With its mouth-blown glassware and floral ceramics, homewares line Juliska epito- mizes gracious living. Now the lifestyle brand has a home of its own: a 4,000- square-foot flagship in an 1834 former seed store on Charleston’s King Street. Capucine De Wulf Gooding, who founded Juliska with her husband, David Gooding, moved from Connecticut to the South Carolina city in 2001. “There is a sense of hospitality and tradition here, and everyone entertains,” she says. Designed with Douglas Little and Patti Wilborne, the flagship has a Bohemian Bar devoted to Czech glassware and a studio for “romantic arts” workshops like calligraphy and mixology. Coming soon: a garden café with lunch and tea served on Juliska dishes. As for those striking flower displays? “They’re by my mom, Vicky Cameron,” De Wulf Gooding says. —Ingrid Abramovitch juliska.com VISIT: LITTLE ROCK PLEATS, PLEASE For a unique cultural excursion this spring, put Arkansas on your itinerary.

The museum, which has undergone several expansions over its 86-year history, is now united by a breathtaking pleated roof, allowing visi- tors to fully experience the breadth of its permanent collection of works on paper, regional art, and more. “We realized we needed something new and exciting,” says architect Jeanne Gang of her eye-catching design. The inaugural exhibition, “Together,” will feature works by artists Elias Sime, Ryan RedCorn, LaToya Hobbs, and others. —Anna Fixsen arkmfa.org THEAGENDA What’s shaping our tastes and topping our to-do lists this month.

Named for and in tribute to Debbouze’s mother, Fatima, the space was conceived as a bridge between Moroccan and French cultures. Gonzalez mirrored the iconic metal moucharabies that adorn the IMA’s wooden facade, then expanded on her opulent concept with wood marquetry, marble, hand-painted frescoes in gold leaf, decorative plasterwork on the ceilings, and, of course, lots of pattern. —Sean Santiago darmima-restaurant.com SEE: NEW YORK CITY TALENT SHOW Launched in 2016, the Loewe Foundation Craft Prize has rapidly become a harbinger of greatness.

Pieces on view include those by Tanya Aguiñiga, working in terra-cotta and synthetic hair; Claire Lindner, with glazed stoneware; and Liam Lee, whose felt and plywood chair evokes natural forms, provoking “a feeling of semi- recognition,” he says.

MolteniC’s creative director, Vincent Van Duysen, certainly had this in mind while working on the brand’s debut outdoor collection. For Van Duysen, Molteni’s extensive archives were a huge source of inspiration: An entire seating line arose from Luca Meda’s Palinfrasca sofa, origi- nally designed in 1994, while Gio Ponti’s classic D.150.5 chaise longue and the D.154.2 armchair have been reissued with an eye to sustainability. Van Duysen also looked to contemporary designers Foster + Partners and Ron Gilad to reinterpret, respectively, the Arc dining table in a cement finish and the Panna Cotta side tables in iron and lava stone. Van Duysen’s own suite of furniture, Timeout, consists of a sofa, lounge, and dining furniture with elements of woven polypropylene rope. “The collection is defined by an innate sense of savoir faire,” chief marketing officer Giulia Molteni says. “There is a strong emphasis on craftsmanship, delving into the rich tradition of Italian design.” By striking the right balance between legacy and modernity, MolteniC’s migration outdoors is poised for success, Italian style. —Parker Bowie Larson RENAISSANCE ALFRESCO An Italian brand’s new outdoor collection is a breath of fresh air.

Price upon request. bulgari.com SWEPT AWAY The Roman jewelry house Bulgari may be most famous for the iconic Serpenti line, which celebrated its 75th birthday this spring. But while the snake is synony- mous with the brand, it does not define it. Bulgari’s new high-jewelry collection, Mediterranea, makes this point spectacularly. Inspired by the sea, from its inky depths to its frothy coastline, the collection puts the house’s affinity for colored gemstones front and center. Take for example the 76 carats of pear rubellites dangling from this collar of pavé diamonds, offset by sapphires and turquoise. To quote a certain animated mermaid: “I just don’t see how a world that makes such wonderful things could be bad.” —Sean Santiago

E L L E D E C O R 42 TA L E N T PORTRAIT BY ZACHERY ALI EQUAL FOOTING Jean Lin, founder of the design co-op and showroom Colony, is taking the next step in her mission to foster emerging talent. ALTRUISM IS A DAILY PRACTICE, A MUSCLE waiting to be tensed and strengthened. For Jean Lin, the founder of the New York City showroom and design co-op Colony, it’s a muscle she has dedicated her career to exercising. Colony launched in 2014 with a collective business model that eschews industry standards in favor of minimal commissions and a monthly membership fee; Lin is now expanding the scope of her mission with the debut of a residency program for emerging tal- ent. The first collections are on view at the showroom through May 5. The incubator program pays for residents’ studio spaces while offering a curriculum, real-time feedback on works in progress, and part-time duties on the showroom floor. It’s a pressure cooker, but “pressure creates the best work,” says Lin, whose own career path was far from straightforward. Lin studied psychology at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, later working in social services and then in fashion—her first paying job was for J.Lo’s now defunct clothing line. A pivot to editorial work scratched her itch for creative expres- sion, but it wasn’t until Reclaim NYC, a charity furniture auction she cofounded in the wake of Hurricane Sandy, that the idea for Colony really took shape: a perfect mar- riage of her artistic drive and philanthropic leanings. The daughter of Taiwanese immigrants, Lin was raised in a predominantly white town in Massachusetts and has always seen herself as an underdog. But reinvention takes a self-described “wiring for risk-taking” that has allowed her to grow Colony from a cash- strapped business into one that now offers interior design ser- vices and consulting; it is also often credited with nurturing the suc- cess of studios like Allied Maker and Egg Collective, both among Colony’s founding group of artists. “Maybe that’s why we’ve been in the game for so long,” Lin says. “I keep pushing. I don’t sit back and say, ‘I did it.’” —Lori Keong Jean Lin in a sweater by Akris. RIGHT: Marmar Noon valet, by Ingemar Hagen- Keith.

A n exercise in letting go—that’s how the designer Leah Ring describes her Yucca Valley, California, home, a secondary residence she shares with her husband, the art- ist Adam de Boer. De Boer, in fact, proposed on the property, though one year and a renovation later, a rogue sandstorm blew through on the day of the nuptials, a fitting welcome to desert life if ever there was one. Ring—whose six-year-old Los Angeles– based studio, Another Human, works across residential and commercial interiors and prod- uct design—finds ample inspiration off the beaten (and sometimes brambly) path. Having studied under ELLE DECOR A-List designer Frances Merrill of Reath Design, she was well equipped to spot the potential in the com- pound, an atypical if otherwise unremarkable arrangement of four buildings just outside Joshua Tree National Park. “I didn’t want something that had been flipped,” she says. And flipped it was not: One of the buildings even lacked a foundation. Ring painted each a poppy hue and set about mani- festing “the most extreme version” of her taste throughout, designing a dynamic weekend retreat where she could replenish her creative juices while still being a stone’s throw from the city. The result of the yearlong renovation happily leaves timidity, well, in the dust. GO FOR BOLD 1.

Vibrant color is one of Another Human’s hallmarks. While the exterior of the pri- mary residence is painted lavender—a nod to area sunsets—Ring’s favorite hue is an acidic shade of green. The lime green and aqua tile combination was one of her first design decisions for the property. It defines the kitchen, where the color scheme is echoed in the countertops by Cambria and is repeated in other tones in the primary bath- room. The Alno hardware coordinates with the back- splash, and the cabinet paint is Electric Slide by Benjamin Moore. The vase is by Bari Ziperstein; the Moroccan rug was sourced from Etsy. 4.

One of the structures on the compound is Ring’s home office. The facade is painted green, and the inte- riors are clad in a wallpaper that Ring had custom-made, working with Magic Murals on her selected source imagery and design; the desk was made by Fire on the Mesa. “It’s great for cre- ative work,” she says of the space. “But it’s so fun, it can be hard to concentrate.”

The nightstands are by Kartell. 7. Above the bed in the primary bedroom is a soft sculpture by the artist Lilah Rose, commissioned for the space. The nightstand is inspired by a Jean Royère design and was fabricated by Objects for Objects. 8. In the primary bath- room, Ring specified a Vola showerhead in pink and powder-coated other fittings to match. “I’m for- ever powder-coating toilet handles,” Ring says. The painted toilet seat is by Angeleno artist Peter Shire.

  • 61. E L L E D E C O R 54 B U I L D E R FR AN PARENTE/OT TO A t the risk of offending a flotilla of momfluencers, I’ll say it: Having an aesthetically flawless nursery does not matter. Not to the baby, at least. “We have to remember when we design these rooms that we’re human animals,” says New York designer and mother of three Celerie Kemble. “And the less perfect an environment, the more tolerant and flexible the child. Probably.” To be clear, Kemble nurseries are fantastical visions that could have been dreamed up by Ludwig Bemelmans himself. But she tries to pare them back as much as possible. “The people who spent four months of their pregnancy buying everything they’re supposed to buy and getting lists from friends, I think they just end up with a wretched child,” she says. “It can’t sleep in daylight. A cold baby wipe on its butt and the night’s over!” Not that there isn’t plenty to aspire to. A nursery is part of your child’s entrée into the wider world, so a whiff of Custom color-blocked cabinets, a Moroso rocking chair, and a Cassina side table in a New York City nursery by Ashe + Leandro. fabulousness is to be encouraged. One key, designers say, is to splurge on the things that will last. New York designer Rodney Lawrence recently sheathed the room of an Upper East Side firstborn in a silver-leaf de Gournay wallcovering bursting with mauve, pale lavender, and plum cherry blossoms. Once the crib—in this case, a brushed brass and shagreen piece from Kifu Paris—and other accoutrements are gone, you have “a beautiful wallcovering in a room that you can convert back to something else, or it can go to the next stage in the child’s life.” Designer Thomas Jayne likewise urges clients to invest in grown-up furniture pieces that can mature with their child rather than throwaway options. Appropriately bolted to the wall and topped with a changing pad, a Louis Philippe burl-walnut chest can function as a changing table, then easily transition back. In lieu of a bulbous glider, a storied rocking chair “gives some soul to the room.” Jayne himself grew up with a lithograph by Grant Wood in his childhood bedroom that’s now proudly displayed in his SoHo loft, and he always suggests that his clients invest in one piece of art that can be toted along with their kid through life: “It doesn’t necessarily have to be expensive, but it’s best if it’s not overtly juvenile.” When he was designing the nurseries for his two chil- dren, Atlanta designer Vern Yip opted for choices that would stand the test of time, including antiques culled from trips abroad (like an 18th-century lamb from a Nativity set bought in Barcelona) and paintings that he and his husband commissioned from classically trained artist James Way. More than a decade later, all their choices have held up. “The only difference is, there are no longer cribs,” he says. Above all, safety is paramount in a nursery. A sense of uncluttered spaciousness also helps—for the child and also for parents during those brutal 2 a.m. feedings. “Make it a nice environment for weird hours,” Kemble says. “A baby is in a state of larval ignorance for the first couple of years, and then all they really want by ages two and three is space. The more you dazzle them with sophisticated toys when they’re little, the greater the turnip you’re going to raise.” When my own son, Guy, was born in 2020, there was a lot of freshman-year upheaval for my husband and me to con- quer on little sleep: diapering, breastfeeding, swaddling. The one thing we could control with a surgeon’s precision was his nursery, where we hung a wallpaper panel of the Virginia countryside behind his blond wood crib and trotted out hand- made toy sheep from Minnesota, a holdover from my own childhood. As soon as Guy could form a coherent sentence, however, he asked me to take the wall panel down—he didn’t like its toothy horse and thought it would bite him in his sleep. Now that he’s a toddler, we’ll never have that sense of control we thought we had when we welcomed him into the nursery. His cuteness, though, is guaranteed to remain. ◾

  • 66. E L L E D E C O R 59 F or many years, I set my alarm to ring at five on Sunday mornings. I’d slip out of bed, leave my young husband sleeping, and dress in the dark. My friend Anna waited outside in an SUV. We drove on the empty streets of our Southern California neighborhood to the coffee shop, which was supposed to open at six but rarely did. If luck was on our side, we carried out extra-large lattes for the drive and arrived at the flea markets just before seven—Pasadena City College on the first weekend of the month; Rose Bowl, the second; Long Beach, the third; and Santa Monica Airport, the fourth—just as the vendors, many of whom we knew by name, were setting up their stalls. We strolled the aisles slowly. It was our time to talk. Our problems and our hopes were legion. Anna and I were just beginning our home lives. She had two boys; I had one. I’d begun my life as a swap-meet goer in college when I’d rented a cottage in Berkeley, California, that was sur- rounded by berry bushes. My preference was for waffles with more berries than batter, but the juice from them wrecked an electric waffle maker after only a few months. I found an old cast-iron over-the-burner contraption at the swap meet for a dollar. Anna and I thought about our kids’ rooms especially. I found two French faux-bamboo twin beds, a freestanding blackboard, some thick homespun calico for duvet covers. Anna zeroed in on old toy trucks: She planned to devote the whole backyard of the rental house to a sandbox. We bought for bargain prices and for beauty. We had no heirlooms yet. We wanted our homes, even rented, to be beautiful and to feel settled. Sometimes we didn’t find anything to buy, but I can’t remember ever returning home without new resolves. On those flea-market Sundays, time seemed to stretch. We had the hour there and the hour back in the car for con- versations, which seemed to wind and climb. We talked while we shopped too, with interruptions for bargaining. Our husbands were often the subject. They didn’t do enough, we thought. Both brilliant men, ambitious in their work; less ambitious, we felt, in the energies devoted to communal family life. We thought seriously and philosoph- ically: about marriage, about motherhood, about work. Time, as it turned out, was what we never had enough of. We also bought gifts. Being previously owned seemed to make an object more unique. Though these presents weren’t exchangeable, they were one of a kind and not directly trace- able to a price. We loved Miriam Haskell’s jewelry, vintage necklaces, and earrings from the 1930s and ’40s. They were just expensive enough to be special but still affordable in the way “real” jewelry would not have been then. Vintage Christ- mas tree ornaments were favorite gifts. As were old dowels, which could be grouped together to make stunning meno- rahs. I found a vintage printed felt skirt for the tree. Sometimes we returned to houses where everyone was still sleeping. So as not to wake up slumbering families, we’d meet later to carry the larger items in. It felt like magic to slip back into bed—after having had an adventure, figuring out a possible solution to this week’s urgent problem, and buying a set of Swedish crystal wineglasses—and to have missed nothing at all. Then the time came for us to move into permanent homes. Little by little, we furnished them. Not all at once, our Sunday runs to the flea markets became less regular. The kids began to have practices and tournaments and dance competitions on weekends, which required early wake-ups for other kinds of drives. Besides, our houses had become settled. Eventually, Anna and I became obsessed—along with everyone else with older children who’d grown up in one house—with decluttering. We wanted less: We donated; we organized; we purged. Now our children live in their own apartments, and Anna and I see them for dinner, the way we see our friends. But we haven’t returned to the flea markets. Sunday morn- ings, now, we each make coffee and sit at our desks, reading scenes we’ve written for books, looking for patterns. Novels and memoirs, like homes, are made of many scraps from different places and times and are also dependent on the art of arrangement. But we still live among things found during those dawn runs out of our houses, when our families slept. A dispro- portionate number of things from the flea market survived our many purges. Anna now lives in a high-rise in Brooklyn; it pleases me to recognize her Gustavian corner cupboard and four small Craftsman-framed photographs and to remember the stalls they came from. When I walked through my own house to remember what had come from the markets, I found treasures in every room. ◾ Mona Simpson is a best-selling novelist whose new book, Commitment (Knopf), was recently released.

  • 71. E L L E D E C O R 64 young, worldly couple moves into a classic Haussmannian building near Paris’s Champs- Élysées and is faced with a choice: stay true to its 19th-century character, leaning into the high ceilings, marble mantels, and gracious rooms, or throw caution to the wind. One glance at its color-saturated rooms and it is evident which route this couple chose. It was Julien Sebban, the Paris-born founder of the four- year-old firm Uchronia, who helped the homeowners to demolish their comfort zone. Sebban, who was based in London for six years to study architecture, has quickly made a name for himself with spaces that tap into the zeitgeist with abandon. Most notable may be the restaurant Forest, opened last year at the Musée d’Art Moderne de Paris, and before that, Créatures, a pop-up eatery atop the Galeries Lafayette that’s since become a seasonal staple of the city’s dining and social scenes. The firm’s name is itself a neologism taken from Uchronie, the title of a book written by 19th-century French philosopher Charles Renouvier, referring to a hypothetical time period of our world. Sebban’s multidisciplinary collec- tive, then, is something of an anachronism, straddling our current moment and some whimsical, acid-tinged version of it hovering just beyond the scope of our peripheral vision. Uchronia’s signature use of outsize motifs, undulating lines, bright colors, and pattern have made each of its proj- ects an instant social-media star. “The homeowners wanted to keep the idea of a traditional Haussmannian apartment, but with crazy details,” says Sebban of the 2,600-square- foot space, situated in the tony Triangle d’Or district in the city’s 8th arrondissement. “So we kept the original layout and the floors but turned everything upside down.” The homeowners are both involved in the world of lux- ury and often entertain; their space needed to be designed to suit this lifestyle. Beyond that, they wanted everything to reference jewels and stones. “We imagined walking into our jewel box, each gem blown up to an architectural scale,” the wife says. “That is exactly what we got.” For Uchronia, this was a point of departure. The firm’s prodigious use of curves wouldn’t cut it—quite literally, in this instance, as the clients wanted elements of the inte- rior to look faceted, like gemstones. To create that feeling, the firm focused on the details: a mirror was added above the mantel, layers of Japanese gold leaf inset along its edges in emerald and aquamarine tints; custom hardware was designed to reference different stones—malachites, sap- phires, opals, and rubies; painted silk curtains, color- matched to each room’s jewel-toned walls, were specially commissioned from the artist Justin Morin. The dining room table was made in seven pieces so that it might be pulled apart. It seats 16, and the center can be removed and used as a side table for serving. All in all there are 40 legs, each of which is treated like a piece of jewelry, rendered from hammered steel. In the kitchen, the firm designed and fabricated its first-ever stained-glass win- dows; elsewhere, a custom dégradé wall treatment (a gradi- ent color scale that, unlike ombré, allows for a range of hues) was developed in collaboration with Atelier Roma and deployed in the living room in blue and in the dining room in a mossy green. “Where it was once banal,” the wife says, “it is now magic.” The clients eschewed editions; the apartment is fur- nished with vintage finds from auctions and the Paris flea market, alongside custom Uchronia pieces. In total, the proj- ect took seven months devoted exclusively to design and decoration. “Their free spirit spoke to us,” the wife says of Sebban and his team. “When we met Julien, we knew that he could translate our specific interests, our desires, our way of living into a wonder-filled home that felt like us.” What could be more classic than that? ◾

  • 79. e all love a bit of theater in our lives, but it’s got to be the right kind. For New York–based interior designer Casey Kenyon, the best spaces m i x drama with comfort. So it was fitting that one of his first clients, Stephen Sposito, was a theater director who commissioned Kenyon to design his studio in Hell’s Kitchen. In the four years since the designer founded his firm, Studio Kenyon, he has swiftly gained a reputation for creating layered interiors with equal parts showmanship and sensitivity. He developed his eye first by working as an assistant to Marc Jacobs, helping the fashion designer while he was decorating his Greenwich Village home. “Casey is supportive, agile, and empathetic,” Jacobs says. “He absorbed my appreciation for things, researched them, and went further. He’s like a sponge.” Eventually, Kenyon set out on a design path, working initially for ELLE DECOR A-List firm Gachot Studios and then as design director at the trendsetting New York light- ing and furniture studio Apparatus. Sposito, who has been an assistant director on such Broadway shows as Wicked and The Book of Mormon and has directed operas, was a fan of Apparatus’s and noticed Kenyon’s work with the brand on Instagram. He reached out via direct message, and soon Kenyon had one of his firm’s earliest projects. The brief was to squeeze the most out of the studio apartment Sposito shares with his partner, Michael Brandley, and make it sing. But given the vagaries of his profession, he also needed Kenyon to be flexible. “We had to pause every so often and wait until I made a bit more money,” says Sposito, whose industry was hard hit during the pandemic. “And Casey was great about that.” Located in a 1911 building, the 1,000-square-foot studio had gained a small bedroom with a windowed wall in its previous iteration. Kenyon swapped out its frosted glass wall for clear, adding corduroy curtains that can be closed for privacy. When the draperies are drawn, “it’s like a warm cocoon,” Sposito says. For Kenyon, every project starts with an image. After gently dissuading Sposito from a quieter country aesthetic (think tiny stools and George Nakashima–esque furniture), the designer steered him in the polar-opposite direction toward a slick 1970s New York vibe. “In the city you need something that feels like a little city,” Kenyon says. He showed Sposito and Brandley a picture from a 1970s maga- zine story on the late philanthropist B. Gerald Cantor’s Manhattan apartment. Awash in browns and reds, that space had reflective surfaces and luscious textiles and a lighting scheme designed to be universally flattering. While he gave it his own spin, Kenyon stayed quite faith- ful to the slick and sensual 1970s palette. In the living room, a vintage Jean Prouvé daybed upholstered in an inky velvet now separates the living and dining areas; nearby, a metal sculp- ture by Val Bertoia (Harry Bertoia’s son) adds delicate balance; an Apparatus light above the burl-wood table speaks the same dynamic sculptural language. Meanwhile, in a corner, a monu- mental Rick Owens vessel makes a statement of its own. An Apparatus fixture hangs over a custom burl-wood table in the dining area.

  • 80. E L L E D E C O R 73 Design heavy hitters abound in the apartment, even if they are not front and center, like the Charlotte Perriand sconces scattered throughout the living and sleeping areas. Indeed, Kenyon endeavored not just to decorate, but also to help Sposito achieve his dream of becoming a collector. “I’ve always wanted to own great art and good furniture and antiques, but it seemed so out of reach for someone without tremendous wealth,” Sposito says. “Casey taught me that if you are passionate and into the hunt, deals can be found.” The de Sede sofa in the living area is just one of many examples of the thrill of the chase. Purchased from one of Kenyon’s friends, the piece was in shreds, so Sposito was able to buy it at a great price; it now looks brand new in its buttery suede upholstery. At the end of the day, this is still a compact studio apartment. But in Kenyon’s world, size doesn’t matter. To him, even a small space can be a stage for excitement. All it needs is the perfect plot. ◾

  • 93. E L L E D E C O R 86 aine summers are mythic, its coastal cottages perhaps even more so. There are the shingled behemoths built by 19th-century rusticators, Greek Revival captain’s houses clustered in seaside villages, and simple fisherman’s shacks strung along the ocean’s edge. None of them interested Carolyn Evans as she scrolled through rental options from her Charleston, South Carolina, kitchen in the spring of 2020. “We’d never been to Maine, but friends had moved there to escape the Southern summers, and we were feeling that heat,” says Evans, a psychotherapist and author. Those friends happened to be Bill Bowick and David Bouffard, an architect duo who knew exactly what she and her husband, Ray, wanted. The couple had recently traded in a traditional 1840s Charleston “single” for a 1950s midcentury home, all angles, glass, and brick, with an open floor plan. “I just love a straight line,” Evans says she realized. “I have a hard time living with a curve.” Which is why the minute she opened an email from her friends with a listing for a rental house on Maine’s Deer Isle, she immediately booked it for the month of August. Built in 1968, the home is on 12 acres and overlooks the Atlantic Ocean and Crockett Cove. “It had me at the full glass front,” she says. “But the fact that it also sits on a huge piece of granite that hangs over the water? You can slip into nature without disturbing it.” Even better, it was designed by Emily Muir, an artist environmentalist, philanthropist, and self-taught architect whose homes were legendary. Her legacy is bound up in 45 modest cottages scattered in and around Crockett Cove at the tip of one of Maine’s storied peninsulas. She was instrumental in bringing to Deer Isle the esteemed Haystack Mountain School of Crafts, designed by the archi- tect Edward Larrabee Barnes. Between them, the pair put down Maine’s modernist roots with a shared vision: that every building be a showcase for the landscape. Muir died in 2003 at the age of 99. Evans eagerly moved in for what she thought was a month’s respite. But two weeks into the rental, she learned that the house was going on the market. “Muir’s places rarely come up for sale and are almost never as intact as this one,” she says. “So we made an offer, thrilled by the fact that we actually got to wake up there before signing any papers.” The couple and their two adult children, daughter Reese and son Marshall, were all on board with the deci- sion. By September, the place was theirs. In short order, Evans called Charleston-based interior designer Angie Hranowsky, whom she credits with cultivat- ing her love of midcentury modern architecture. The Maine house took Hranowsky’s breath away. “All you can do when you walk through the door is look outside,” she says. There was nothing she could do on the inside to compete with that view. So taking her cues from the original architect, she didn’t try. “Muir was not pretentious or flashy, and she cer- tainly wasn’t extravagant,” says the designer, who mostly restored what was there. She added a fresh coat of paint to the kitchen cabinets and covered the counters with new sheets of Formica. Where the floorboards were rotted, she matched new ones to the old. She furnished the rooms in classic Maine-cottage fashion, with a hodgepodge of pieces that seem like castoffs from a primary home. A pair of sofas was placed back-to-back, one facing the water, the other peering into a roaring fire. It is this sensitivity to environment that drew Evans to work with Hranowsky on the project, their third together. And it is likely what Muir, too, was after. “You can just feel her commitment to working with the land, whether you are looking at the house from the water or looking at the water from the house,” Evans says. Indeed, she was so inspired by the house that she relented on her straight-lines rule and left the curved vanity in the bathroom as is. “What was important to Muir,” she says, “is now important to me.” ◾ Homeowner Carolyn Evans with her daughter, Reese.

But when it came to designing her “first grown-up apartment,” New York City interior designer Augusta Hoffman wanted some- thing that would be unique. She reached out to James Mobley, a decorative artist in Los Angeles with whom she had never worked, and told him her vision. “I shared my dream of cov- ering the walls in a grisaille scenic mural,” she says. The result is one of the most unexpectedly romantic eat-in kitchens south of 14th Street, a moody and atmospheric space combining olive-green cabinetry, Mobley’s ethereal Hudson River Valley–inspired landscape, and spherical ala- baster pendants that evoke a pair of full moons. The entire apartment, a converted loft in an unprepos- sessing building on lower Broadway, is a testament to Hoffman’s deft hand with color, command of classical forms, and confidence in her aesthetic vision—attributes not often seen in a designer so young. The 31-year-old Dallas native founded her eponymous firm just five years ago but has already established a reputation for tailored, sophisticated small spaces grounded in classical architec- ture. Hoffman interiors tend to be pared back yet gently lay- ered, with a sober beauty that eschews campy old-world flourishes. Her most recognizable calling card is probably her palette: a slender, tonal range of subdued greens, creams, and ochers, with accents of black for depth. “I am still pushing myself to expand my colors!” she says. “But it’s true, I do love green. I think of it almost as a neutral.” Thanks to a prior gut renovation by the late Paul Fortune and ELLE DECOR A-List firm Gachot Studios, many of the apartment’s enhancements were already in place when Hoffman and her husband, Jonathan Swygert, pur- chased the place. “I loved the juxtaposition of the sort of ‘uptown’ finishes—the moldings, the traditional walnut- stained floors, the marble in the main bath—in the down- town environment,” she says. “You come off the bustling street and through our dingy lobby, but then the elevator directly opens into a warm, refined home.” The tranquil living room is proof positive of Hoffman’s approach to soft-spoken elegance. While its white-on-white scheme might at first seem in line with any number of chic living rooms, there’s more here than meets the eye. The walls, upholstery, and window shades are a carefully modu- lated combination of creams, whites, and pale beiges in a range of textures, avoiding the doldrums of spa-like mono- chromatism. “I hate when things are too matchy-matchy,” says Hoffman, who even chose a sofa and ottoman with a similar, but not identical, style of tufting. At the same time, Hoffman does appreciate the power of a hushed echo. Con- sider the monumental hand-painted Chinese screen above the living room sofa. One might imagine the landscape would compete with the mural in the kitchen—but it works. “They interact beautifully,” says Augusta Hoffman Studio designer Emma Stang, who collaborated with Hoffman on the apartment. “It’s as if they are in conversation.” Of course, acting on instinct is not enough to build a business. There’s the matter of listening to one’s clients— which in this case meant Swygert, who despite being

Hoffman’s longtime sweetheart (they’ve known each other since they were 12) had no intentions of giving his wife carte blanche over their new home. “I had a lot of opinions, and I didn’t exactly hold back,” he says. Most notably, Swy- gert, a product developer, wanted their bedroom to be more traditionally “masculine” than Hoffman had originally envi- sioned it. “I kept saying that I would love some area that felt more like mine, especially because I was going to be work- ing from the room as well,” he says. “I told Augusta that I hoped the bedroom could have the feel of a study, maybe even with a leather sofa.” (It may have been this point, he notes, at which “she called me her most difficult client.”) Hoffman admits to being skeptical, but she came through with the goods. She enveloped the walls with rich tobacco-colored Scalamandré grass cloth (“I love that organic, rusty color,” she says), installed a black marble mantel, splurged on a custom silk Diego Mardegan chande- lier, and even found a very handsome brown Arne Norell sofa for the foot of their bed. “What can I say?” she asks lovingly. “It was his dream.” ◾

I originally visited the house in Turin, Italy, 10 years ago on a weekend trip. It is the perfect Gesamtkunst- werk and a master class in layering. Carlo Mollino was one of the first architects with an intentionally eclectic approach, putting Japanese design in conversation with Italian craft, or pairing Murano chandeliers with Saarinen chairs. He was able to tell so many stories at once in such a small space. His work encouraged me to dare with textures, to dare with colors, to go bold or go home. If you look at Casa Mollino with an open mind, it’s all there: the materials, the colors, the cinematography, the daring—the drama!” —As told to Camille Okhio The living room of Museo Casa Mollino, designed by Carlo Mollino, in Turin, Italy. carlomollino.org/ museo-casa-mollino
