THE AGENDA

MEXICO

Otro Oaxaca is the latest project from Grupo Habita, the hospitality firm behind such design-driven Mexican destinations as nearby Hotel Escondido and the capital's Condesa DF. This 16-room boutique property in Oaxaca City was designed in collaboration with a local architect, João Boto Caeiro of RootStudio, with a focus on regional materials including brick, limestone, and reclaimed wood. If bouncing between the underground spa and rooftop pool isn't your cup of tea, perhaps the cuisine, much of it prepared over charcoal by chef Saúl Carranza, will stoke your interest.  -Sean Santiago otrooaxaca.com

LONDON

Built of 26,000 tons of Portland stone, London's Old War Office has a history as monumental as its massive footprint: This is where Winston Churchill holed up during World War II and intelligence officer lan Fleming was inspired to create the character of James Bond. Now the 1906 building has been reborn as Raffles London at the OWO, a hotel complete with a ballroom, nine restaurants, and a Guerlain spa; it took eight years to restore historic features like the marble staircase and mosaic floors. Meanwhile, the spectacular project was one of Thierry Despont's last-the late designer oversaw the decor of the public spaces and 120 guest rooms and suites. Now visitors can make like Daniel Craig in Skyfall and head to the OWO's roof-or descend to the basement's Spy Bar for a cocktail, shaken, not stirred. -Ingrid Abramovitch raffles.com

The Empire Strikes Back - A 19th-century gem in Cambridge, Massachusetts, gets a tour-de-force restoration thanks to Frances Merrill of Reath Design.

Is it possible to simultaneously go back in time and leap forward? This was the challenge a couple set for themselves upon purchasing a salmon-pink 1869 house in Cambridge, Massachusetts, not far from Longfellow House, the National Historic Site that served as George Washington's headquarters during the revolution. We loved all the beautiful old details of this house, the homeowner says.

Just Like That, But Cheaper. -One writer tried to replicate a classic ELLE DECOR interior in his apartment. Could he do it for $500?

It was all about the green curtains. In 2008, to my great surprise, I was offered a ninemonth fellowship based in New York City. I had lived there twice before, both times unsuccessfully, meaning I had failed to create any kind of significant social life, and so this was a chance not only to do research for my new novel, but also an opportunity to get things right. I swore I wouldn't let the city break me a third time.

And How! - Decorator Nick Olsen transforms a Sag Harbor home into a Hamptons retreat with an irreverent humor.

If you must go to the Hamptons, however-because it is devilishly good fun, after all-you may notice an apparently modest, low-slung cottage on Sag Harbor's Main Street and think, with a comfortable sort of feeling, Now that is how a house should look. Nestled amid the Botox bars, helipads, and club-staurants, it could almost set the sordid world aright both a rebuke and a solution to the chaos that surrounds it. A real home.
