For your poolside, beachside, in-transit, or inside-by-the-AC weekend reading: Here are 10 things we’re noting with August upon us—including reports in from Paris, Finland, and NYC. Have a look:
- Time to book a trip to Finland? An Alvar and Aino Aalto-designed icon is now open for overnight guests. (We love the yellow floors.)
- It’s Shoppe Object season; runs August 4-6 in NYC; get all the details here.
- Piet Oudolf in Menorca, or: the dreamiest garden we’ve seen in a while.
- A transformed house on the outskirts of Copenhagen.
- Dispatches from Paris: an Olympic design report.
- Object of desire, terrace edition: Philippe Model’s woven furniture.
- A milky glass pendant light, new from deVol.
- Essentials for soaking in every bit of summer.
- A height-of-summer favorite from the archives: outdoor living with Heidi Swanson (of 101 Cookbooks).
- P.S. Stay tuned tomorrow for Quick Takes on Remodelista with a shopowner/stylist/design scout—and an iconic gardner/cook on Gardenista.
