Common thread

Plexus c18 by Gabriel Dawe at San Antonio International Airport paired with Chloe’s Jamie rainbow espadrilles. My Mexico travelogue begins with an installation by an artist ruminating on his Mexican roots (thanks for the tip, Persephone Bakery). Originally from Mexico City, Gabriel Dawe explores textiles as an interface between notions of architecture, fashion, and identity. By stringing…

Beyond boutique

The hammock inside El Patio suite at La Valise in Mexico City paired with MM6 Maison Margiela’s asymmetric checked twill shirt. A new bar for chic shelter: French architect-designer Emmanuel Picault (of Chic by Accident) has transformed a 1920s townhouse into three meticulous suites, all within the hip leafiness of Colonia Roma in Mexico City. The intimate experience of La Valise—the brainchild…

“Hollow” by Katie Paterson at the University of Bristol paired with Marni leather earrings. Can you see the forest for the trees? Scottish artist Katie Paterson hopes so: her Hollow exists as a microcosm of all the forests ever on Earth, a miniature sprouting 10,000 unique tree species into a single sensory snapshot of bio-history. Commissioned by the University of Bristol and made in…

Sharing means

The communal dining room paired with Rick Owens leather sandals. Caring about capsule concepts like this: Airbnb recently revealed a new evolution of its sharing economy. Slated to open this fall, the Yoshino Cedar House is a semi-communal space that nurtures relationships within its walls as well as within the rural Japanese community in which it resides. Designed by architect Go Hasegawa, the…

Busy as

“The Hive” at night paired with Gucci’s embroidered sweater. A monumental steel beehive, planted deep inside London’s Royal Botanical Gardens, animates with the activity of a nearby natural nest: Glowing LED panels vary intensity according to the bees’ busyness, as does an accompanying soundtrack by Be—a dream team including Jason Pierce of Spiritualized and string section Amiina (a favorite of…

Ahead of the game

An Inside Out installation by JR in Rio paired with Ilaria Nistri’s draped funnel neck blouse. This athlete—a refugee—did not make it to the Olympics. Despite the avian grace of his dive into the sea. Despite the grandeur of his current presence as public art. The newest iteration of JR’s Inside Out Project—a global initiative to raise the visibility of otherwise overlooked persons—the Rio…

Grosse negligence

Katharina Grosse’s temporary public art installation in the Rockaways paired with Roberto Cavalli’s Kimono floral gown. There she goes again: After a series of recent interventions in the tri-state area, Berlin-based Katharina Grosse has applied her large-scale locational painting to a neglected Fort Tilden aquatics building in the Rockaways of Queens. The structure’s decay has been sublimely…
