There is enough sensible advice in the world.

This month, perhaps the house deserves something a little more interesting.
Why don’t you…

‍

…put the champagne bucket out on a Tuesday?

Fill it with ice, San Pellegrino, flowers—or champagne. Tuesday has done nothing to deserve such restraint.
‍

…place one enormous sculptural bowl on the coffee table and forbid anyone from filling it?

It is an object. It is art. It does not need to hold keys.
‍

…give the guest bathroom a candle too beautiful for guests?

Light it anyway. Bien sûr.
‍

…put an orchid somewhere completely unreasonable?

A bar cart. A stack of books. The kitchen. Somewhere it has absolutely no administrative responsibility.
‍

…hide the remote controls inside a beautiful box?

Civilization has advanced this far. We need not look at them.
‍

…bring one cobalt-blue object into an otherwise quiet room?

Not three. Not a collection. One. A tiny visual exclamation point.
‍

And finally—

…style the house for yourself before you style it for anyone coming over?

The loveliest rooms should not be waiting for company.

À bientôt.
