Bonny Balmoral Part II
Sep 14, 2022Photo: Keystone/Getty.
I love this photograph of the Queen, taken at her much beloved Balmoral Castle in 1972. Seated at her personal writing desk, and surrounded by her famous corgi companions, the image feels intimate and spontaneous. The elegant array of trinkets covering her desk, rich green tartan carpeting, and blonde wood furnishings give us a glimpse into her personal aesthetic sensibility. It's her pose, however--pert, graceful, and relaxed--that seems to me the most telling. The poise, focus, and incredible reserves of inner strength for which the late royal leader was known seem captured in her softly fixed gaze.

A River Runs Through It
Sep 12, 2022When architect Bastien Halard and his wife, landscape architect Miranda Brooks first acquired the 17th century Gloucestershire farmhouse they now call home, a watercourse was running directly underneath the property. This was just one of the many challenges the pair faced in restoring their centuries-old home. Drawing inspiration from local Jacobean Revival architecture, along with the area's lush, leafy countryside, the pair managed to give their home a breezy, modern update without sacrificing its original charm.
