Elizabeth Street Gallery

The Elizabeth Street Gallery carries a fabulously flush collection of garden ornament. Tucked within Lower Manhattan's quintessential aisle's of gritty style, it breaks up the rigamortise of building stock as it lazes on an expansive, grassed lot. Lit with an eclectic mess of garden intrigue, I love how it denies commercial redundancy from the invasive stockists of Restoration Hardware. Simmer your Netflix calendar and stall out within it's gates- you may just find your garden-inspired chupacabra.

Boston to the T

I'm kind of digging Silvetti's glass shroud in Boston's Dewey Square.  A tip of the hat to I.M.Pei's Louvre by way of Giza, a nod to Gropius via glass and steel construction...and it's harking a Veritas hoodie spin.

PFD

The tired keyhole life jackets that I was bound to as a child were suffocating and restricting.  However, they seem far more emotionally buoyant when illustrated by Santiago Morillo.

Museo Soumaya


Mexico City's Museo Soumaya was designed by Fernando Romero.  The aluminum hexagonal tiles on the exterior suggest an apiary aesthetic, stitched by Linda Evan's seamstress.  The first curvilinear museum was spawned by Frank Lloyd Wright in 1939, this is the new age Guggenheim.
