Toast just released a new version of their sell-out quilt (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Patchwork quilts aren’t a new thing. In fact, they’re decidedly old; first iterations go back to ancient Egyptian times and throughout the centuries they’ve been a way of weaving stories and keeping traditional crafts alive, passed down through generations. And yet, for the last few winters, these thoughtfully-crafted blankets, sewn together from a spectrum of shapes, from stars to squares, have been at the heart of seasonal design trends, and very much in the now. Designers and homeware enthusi
12 contemporary artists making portraiture feel modern (opens the original)
Read excerpt
For centuries, commissioning a portrait was entirely normal. How else would one capture their friends and family and celebrate important moments than by hanging an impressive oil painting above the fireplace? When you think of the great portrait artists, from Franz Xaver Winterhalter to John Singer Sargent, you think of lush, oil-slick brushstrokes, dramatic use of light, seated subjects often holding fruit or flowers.

In my opinion, you’re either a bag person or you’re not.

Oh, please. Hand-glazed kitchen tiles I can really get behind, but as for where I keep my purse, sunglasses and headphones, it tends to be a tote bag I’ve picked up from a bookshop or hotel wardrobe. This summer, though, I’ve experienced the luxury o
The enduring appeal of Murano glass lighting (and 15 pieces to shop now) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Murano glass never really fell out of fashion, but across its impressive thousand year history there have, of course, been moments when its distinctive style has been particularly popular.In the 1700s, ornate chandeliers, known as ciocche or ‘bouquets of flowers’, decorated the palazzos of society’s uppercrust, while the 1970s saw a boom for mushroom lamps. Impactful designers have played a part, too. Carlo Nason was born into one of Murano’s oldest glassmaking families but created something fre
