e d i t o r ’s welcome
it’s resi time! Strolling through Tivoli Gardens, riding on Venice’s Grand Canal, skating at Rockefeller Center, taking in the attractions at a good ole amusement park…whatever is your notion of going out for fun, mine (believe it or not) is staying in and putting together this magazine—not incidentally, but particularly, this residential issue. No, I’m definitely not an all work and no play gal! Simply consider for a sec the essence of projects endeavored for our homes. Inevitably, you’ll find at their core authentic needs met by just-as-authentic originality, unique locations surrounded and matched by global experience, diverse clients empowering just-as-diverse designers and their personal vernaculars. Yes, folks, as modestly a ham like me can possibly put it, our all-important resi issue is a veritable trip to wonderland. Now, that’s what I call F-U-N! And, as I was saying, this volume specifically because the incredible talent has gone exponential. In the past three years, COVID had us go all in with residential. With no offices, schools, or hotels to design, everyone and their little doggy, too, went into this patch of the trade. Projects were good, and designers were as impeccable in their execution as they always are, don’t get me wrong. But the demand was not the absolute, deliberate act that’s the right fuel for great achievement customary before the pandemic hit. Now, things have gone back to how they ought to be. The sterling architects and designers on display in our May issue are witness and testament to that. In Amsterdam, an architect restores a 1700’s warehouse into a very today family abode chockablock with enviable art, objets, and furniture (I’m crazy for the wooden wall piece by Gruppo NP2). A beachside Malibu retreat is as natural on the outside-in as it is on the inside-out (think charred wood, stone, and concrete along with superchic vintage furnishings). And a global roundup from Canada to Poland showcases spaces so eclectic and full of distinct color, geometries, and materials it’ll make you swoon (and want to move in). So, my friends, now that I’ve had my fun with you, it’s your time…just turn the page and enjoy! xoxo
