- HANNAH MARTIN

Soft Side

In 1927, fresh out of university and newly married, a young Charlotte Perriand moved into a former photography studio on a corner of Place Saint-Sulpice in Paris. Inspired by the materials and fabrication of automobiles, she clad furnishings, including her garret bar or bar sous le toit, in chrome or nickel, trying out an industrial aesthetic that would soon catch the eye of her mentor and collaborator, Le Corbusier.

Lights Fantastic

Lighting sculptor Stephen White constructed more than 2,000 works over his six-decade career, at least one a staggering 18 feet tall, yet his meticulous scrapbooks contain scant evidence of public recognition. A few newspaper clippings from Hawaii and the West Coast sit next to a single national magazine cover, nearly half a century old the logo obscuring White's (uncredited) design

CUTTING A RUG

Even during Sweden's famously long and bitter-cold winter, the dining room at Beata Heuman’s 18th-century family farmhouse bursts with life thanks to the hand-painted mural of tulips, lilies, dahlias, and fruit trees—all a nod to flora on the property grounds, much of it planted by her mom.

Heuman says of the collaboration, which also includes Delft Folly, her riff on the classic Dutch blue-and-white tiles. degournay.com
