Ahead this August weekend? A Maine market, a British Columbia net-zero house, cold-water dips, and more:
- On the market: a bungalow in Victoria, British Columbia, recently transformed into a net zero dwelling by RM favorites Scott & Scott of Vancouver. (See the homeowners’ detailed play-by-play of the renovation process here.)
- High Season Market is taking place August 11-14 in St. George, Maine, featuring the work of some of our favorites: ANK Ceramics, Lindquist Object, Rudy Jude, Wonder Valley, Ursa Major, Samuel Snider Antiques, and more (many of them featured in our new book, Remodelista in Maine). Stop by: Ocean View Grange, 435 Port Clyde Road, St. George, Thursday 3-6 p.m. and Friday-Sunday 10 a.m. – 4 p.m.
- In other Maine news, the state’s midwinter cold-water plunges, as captured by photojournalist Greta Rybus (our collaborator on Remodelista in Maine), are featured this week in The New York Times.
- On our reading list: The Crevice Garden.
- And we’re awaiting the release of AphroChic: Celebrating the Legacy of the Black Family Home, out this fall.
- Seven new places to stay, via T magazine. (We particularly like the looks of this guesthouse on the Greek island of Patmos.)
- Good-looking shoe storage for the front entry.
- A virtual visit to Berkeley Horticultural Nursery.
