What's in a Hearth? Chefs and Hosting Experts Share their Vintage Dining Sets

DENDWELL | 2022
Generations of social scientists, architects, designers, collectors, and even ancient worshippers of the Greek Goddess Hestia, venerated the Hearth as the center of the Home.

Geoglam: For the Love of Eighties Opulence

DENDWELL | 2022

But bouclé has been around for quite a while and the past couple of years are by no means its first heyday.

The Art of Fashion, with Lauren Kovin

HIGH NOON | 2021
Unlike painting or dance or poetry — mediums for which aesthetic value is the primary indicator and any socio-politico-cultural quality is secondary — fashion’s relationship to the aesthetic is essentially a secondary characteristic. We tend to forget this because the discourse on fashion spends a great deal of... [CONTINUE READING]
