Today, for our final edition, we’re gathering our experts’ responses to our query: What Instagram account do you look to for design inspiration?
Read on:
- @domicile.file. – chef Flynn McGarry
- @the.peanut.vendor, @simotto, @ejrbarnes, @carmen.amsterdam. – entrepreneur and tastemaker Kai Avent-deLeon
- @shakermuseum – chef and writer Clare de Boer
- @mrtmlv is a gem, but we usually go to Instagram to chat with friends or watch videos of scares, pranks, or fails. – designers Pablo Lopez and Iñigo Aragón
- @brentabuck has been so inspiring lately: the perfect blend of contemporary architectural details and balanced warmth. – designer Heidi Lachapelle
- @communedesign, @charlesdelisleoffice, @themodernhouse. – Fanny Singer of Permanent Collection
- @quintana.partners, @lolahats, @chiaracalvidorizza, @devolkitchens, @theworldofinteriors, @ateliervime, @woandwecollection, and @olivierabry. – designer Marianne Evennou
- Oooo, tough question. So many, but @palefire_studio always has great ‘studio sourcebook’ posts. – designer Sophie Rowell
- @freelingwaters, @kellybehunstudio, and @ugorondinone0. – event designer David Stark
- @carpentersworkshopgallery. – Byron Peart of Goodee
- @theworldofinteriors. – Dexter Peart of Goodee
- @tat.london is a feast for the eyes! When it comes to Block Shop design inspiration, we try to avoid Instagram altogether and stick to our art history library instead. Our foray into florals and more figurative designs takes inspiration from a range of sources—from Joe Brainard to Alexander Calder’s wire circus sculptures, Pennsylvania Dutch folk art to Mughal miniature painting to French Art Deco wallpaper, and on and on. – Grier Stockman of Block Shop
- I love everything Grace Cobb puts out there. Justin Chung photographs really beautiful spaces; Salmon Creek Farm and Casa Lawa are always up to something inspiring, – Katie Bowes of The Post Supply
- @feauboiseries – Ajiri Aki of Madame de la Maison
- I love the work of @thesomersethouse. – Nicole Najafi
- Kennet Williamsson (@kennetwilliamsson). More than design inspiration, it’s life inspiration. Art and the role it plays in his domestic life is wonderful to see. – ceramicist Tracie Hervy
