Current Obsessions: Autumnal Light

September 26, 2020
spencer fung art 2
Above: On our radar: “Hidden Lines,” a new show from Remodelista favorite Spencer Fung, at Francis Gallery in Bath, England; on through November 21, 2020. In this exhibit, Fung displays work created with earth pigments, charcoal, and graphite on vintage recycled and upcycled cotton rag paper (for more, see Slow Architecture: An Elegant, Monochrome Home in London by Spencer Fung and Expert Advice: Thoughts on Designing from Nature with Spencer Fung).
  • Spotted on T Magazine: Smallhold, the first (and only) organic mushroom farm in NYC. Among the display-worthy offerings: everything from pink oysters to lion’s manes. Smallhold installs front-of-house “mini-farms,” where restaurants like Mission Chinese and Bunker Vietnamese grow their own fungi.
  • Margot has been listening to the Trace Material podcast, from the Parsons Healthy Materials Lab, about the history and wonders of hemp as a building material and more.
  • Two new design books we’re looking forward to: Golden Light: The Interior Design of Nickey Kehoe, by LA designers Todd Nickey and Amy Kehoe. For a signed copy, go to Nickey Kehoe.
  • And Decors Barbares: The Enchanting Interiors of Nathalie Farman-Farma, features the layered, lushly patterned interiors of Nathalie Farman-Farma, the London-based designer and proprietor of textile design studio Décors Barbares.
  • Margot notes that the National Trust for Historic Preservation has just released the 2020 list of America’s 11 Most Endangered Historic Places.
  • Designer Sonya Park of Arts & Science has teamed up with Perfumer H on the most elegant Mask First Aid Kit we’ve seen yet.
