Echoing the philosophy of William Morris, the great Victorian Arts and Crafts designer who lived nearby at Kelmscott Manor, everything in the six-acre Gloucestershire garden that Jinny Blom has created for Sanjeev Shah and Mansi Amin is either beautiful or useful.
The late-19th-century former rectory, which the couple bought when they moved out of London in 2017, is perched atop a promontory, 30 miles west of Oxford in the heart of the Cotswolds. To the south are breathtaking views overlooking a quintessentially English pastoral scene of hedged fields and woodland that has remained largely unchanged for centuries, with the Monarch's Way, the route used by King Charles II when escaping from Cromwell's troops in 1651, running through it. One of the things Jinny understands is the setting and the history of the house, says Shah, who was inspired to contact her after reading her best-selling treatise, The Thoughtful Gardener.

Elements of Style - Charlotte Macaux Perelman and Alexis Fabry celebrate 10 years of artistic exploration at Hermès
Last March, Hermès brought its home universe to life in eye-popping fashion at a one-night-only extravaganza staged at the Barker Hangar in Santa Monica. The lavish performance featured dozens of dancers showcasing the French luxury house's furniture, tableware, textiles, and decorative objects in elaborately choreographed vignettes that seemed to riff on the unboxing ritual so popular on social media-a supersized spectacle of conjuring magic from ordinary crates. The event also coincided with the 10th anniversary of Charlotte Macaux Perelman and Alexis Fabry's tenure as artistic directors of the Hermès home division.
