Editor’s Letter

Editors’ BOOKSHELF • FOUR TITLES ON OUR READING LIST THIS SEASON

A NEW CULTURE OF COOL • NE X T-GEN CALIFORNIA STYLE IS HEATING UP: HERE, 10 WAYS TO ADOPT ITS EFFORTLESS EASE ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD

REVISIT HOLLYWOOD REGENCY • A fresh palette of minty greens, chartreuse, and barely there neutrals echoes the airy opulence of Billy Haines’s 1930s reign—with all the requisite over-the-top velvets and silks, curvy contours and sexy metallics.

Mine for Dazzling Stones • Early prospectors surely noted the promise of the desert landscape. Today, modern jewels’ searing hues—from hot oranges to brilliant ambers—and sculptural forms pay sparkling tribute to the American West.

Set Kitchen Temps to Warm • Californians’ long embrace of patina over polish (think Nancy Meyers’s famed film sets) calls for hand-hewn beauty in rustic work tables, collected pottery, and hearty cast iron.

RELAX SUPPERTIME ROUTINES • A rise in freestanding dining banquettes favors cozy, come-as-you-are gatherings in hues that take the edge off hard-working kitchens.

CHANNEL YOUR INNER BOHEMIAN • The classic California table, says Chairish cofounder and president Anna Brockway, “feels at once sophisticated and not overly considered. We’ve mastered the mix of high and low, layering unexpected textures, colors, and materials.” Here, the Queen of Vintage extends an invitation to her own garden table at her new home in Sonoma, alive in organic craft and electric color. “There’s a reason we call it California cool.”

Celebrate Organic Modern Art • Even Mother Earth has her A-list: Textural riches in wood, stone, and hide reemerge in a smashing show of natural patterning in everything from lighting and furniture to textiles.

Soak Up Desert-Sea Esprit • Three chic weekend stays that feel like immersive lessons in California’s layered vernacular, and reminders of the majestic power of place

CLIMBING THE WALLS • A SURGE OF DECORATIVE TILEWORK ILLUMINATES INTERIORS AND COURTYARDS, PUTTING CENTURIES OF CRAFT ON DAZZLING DISPLAY.

Cool, Classic Blues • Cult favorites like Portuguese azulejo and Dutch Delft endure in familiar motifs and painterly scenes, with agile color pairings from canary yellow to dusty rose.

Warm Earthen Hues • Deep terra-cottas and saffrons, natural greens and tortoise browns resurrect Hispano-Moorish tile traditions with remakes that are as majestic as they are modern.

ARE WATERWISE LANDSCAPES the Future of the American Garden? • How California is reimagining the outdoor oasis and seeding a new approach to gardens from coast to coast

GIANT AGAVE: A MAGNIFICENT OBSESSION

GARDENING FORWARD • The key to successful, sustainable cultivation, suggests landscape architect Anooshey Rahim, is rooted in your local climate, not an imagined ideal.

Designing the California Dream • With starring roles in countless photo, film, and video shoots, it is perhaps Hollywood’s most famous residence. But how did the Stahl House, Case Study #22, come to be? A new book reveals the suprisingly humble beginnings of this modernist icon.

Painting the Town • From a breezy russet colonnade to Italian-inspired gardens, three legendary Los Angeles idylls steeped in captivating lessons in color

Hollywood’s CROWN JEWELS • From the vintage stalls of a Greenwich market to Elizabeth Taylor’s own bed, designer Martyn Lawrence Bullard’s relationship with antique jewelry has...
