Spring is in full bloom at the table. Fresh florals cast shadows over our richly dyed napkins. #SpringBlooms #TableLinens #SeasonalLiving #HomeTextiles

Tulips, anemones, poppies... Irving Penn’s botanical subjects often show blooms that have passed their prime — sometimes more beautiful in their impermanence. #IrvingPenn #BotanicalPhotography #StillLife #EphemeralBeauty

We had the pleasure of hosting @tortugaforma to share Andrea’s collection of rare Japanese textiles and highlight the specialized craftsmanship behind these fabrics and paper techniques gathered through her travels across Japan. Guests experienced Natsuko Saka’s handcrafted, naturally dyed basho-shi made from Okinawan wild banana plant fiber, alongside handwoven ramie with kasuri-dyed threads and traditional mud-dyed silk cloth. The full collection will remain available to view and specify at Sample House for those who missed the opportunity to discover these remarkable materials and consider them for future projects. Thank you @arzuorann and @brielledestine for helping bring this event together.

How do you spend your Sunday morning? For @helena_goni it’s leaving dishes in the sink. Sundays aren’t for rushing. They’re for stepping out of the week’s relentless pace.

Baking has gotten messier (and more fun) with small helping hands. But the best part is still the moment of truth — the pan flip, peeling off the parchment, the first slice. — Andrea

You can almost taste Wayne Thiebaud’s paintings with paint layered as thickly as frosting. Each slice practically begs for a fork. #WayneThiebaud #SweetCravings #StillLife #SweetTooth

Can you peel an apple in one continuous strip? Old superstitions say that if you throw it over your left shoulder, it lands in the shape of your future lover’s initial. Photos @helena_goni
