☆ Drab Cubicle? 8 Little Luxuries to Make Your ‘Hot Desk’ Special
  + stars: | 2023-09-15 | by ( Sarah Karnasiewicz | Photographs F. Martin Ramin The Wall Street Journal | Prop Styling Catherine Pearson | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
Q: I split my workweek between home and a “hot desk”—basically, a timeshare cubicle—at my company’s headquarters. While I appreciate the camaraderie and free cold brew in the office, I have to admit that my bland, anonymous workstation really brings me down. Since it’s not mine 100% of the time, I can’t exactly set up house. But are there any little design tweaks that might make it feel less cell-like?

☆ 2023’s Most Coveted Kitchen Is Superexpensive. Here’s How to Get the Look for Less
  + stars: | 2023-04-15 | by ( Sarah Karnasiewicz | Photographs Andrew Bui For The Wall Street Journal | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
TA-TA, soulless stainless ranges. Cheerio, monolithic marble islands. A few years back, a new status kitchen—imported primarily via a pair of posh British outfits called Plain English and deVOL—surfaced stateside. Modeled loosely on the below-stairs service kitchens once found on grand estates, it quickly found a cult following for its homely hallmarks: pared-back Georgian cabinetry in moody colors, from chalky green to dishrag pink; studiously aged taps and cupboard latches; commodious “larders” in which to corral microwaves and other conspicuously 21st-century appliances; open shelving where vintage copper pots rub shoulders with ancestral oil paintings. Think of it as the “old-money look” for kitchens.
☆ A Bee’s Knees Mocktail Recipe for Your Next Night In
  + stars: | 2023-04-01 | by ( Sarah Karnasiewicz | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
SPRING CLEANING can be rewarding in any event. But recently, a pantry purge yielded an unexpected dividend: cocktail-hour inspiration. Taking a cue from a Prohibition-era classic called the Bee’s Knees, I simmered the dregs of various honey jars with water and a sprig of rosemary, producing a syrup with a delicious bite. Shaken with lemon juice and—continuing the clean theme—a zero-proof gin alternative, the resulting tipple satisfies just like the real thing.
☆ The Specialty Wall Treatment That Just Got Way Easier
  + stars: | 2023-02-23 | by ( Sarah Karnasiewicz | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
But lately, we’ve noticed a truly ancient material trending: limewash paint. This earthy, mottled wall finish with a chalky texture has embellished homes since the Roman empire. Even more remarkable: Its components—a toxin-free combination of burnt crushed limestone, water and natural pigment—have remained essentially unaltered. Though Europe has long welcomed limewash, until recently, relatively few Americans had made its acquaintance, except as a semi-obscure, specialty technique. That’s changing as international concerns like Dutch brand Pure & Original and Australia’s Bauwerk Colour expand distribution, and upstart U.S. makers such as Portola Paints & Glazes, Color Atelier, JH Wall Paints and James Alexander Specialty Paints bring ready-made lime paints to market.
☆ Wild Skating: 5 Chill Places to Try It From Lakes to Canals

THESE DAYS, when the weather turns frosty and the skies are clear, my son and I throw our blades into the back seat and drive north from Brooklyn, ready for the hunt. Our quarry? Not wildlife. Our mission isn’t as daring as it might sound. “Wild ice” is just newfangled slang for what’s been a fixture of northern climes for millennia: natural ice, unmanicured by man or machines, that forms atop lakes, rivers, marshes and more when temperatures plummet.
☆ When Did Linoleum Get So Luxe?
  + stars: | 2022-11-04 | by ( Sarah Karnasiewicz | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: +1 min
FOR DECADES linoleum has been shorthand for downmarket and drab, the stuff of dingy, unrenovated kitchens and hospital corridors. But lately that bad rap is fading, thanks to creative, environmentally conscious designers who are approaching the material with fresh eyes. In the linoleum renaissance, the colors are rich and sophisticated, the patterns unexpected. In cabinetry and furnishings as well as underfoot, these new, elevated versions argue persuasively that the utilitarian workhorse can deliver practicality with panache. “Around 2000, you started to see a fetishization of luxury and ‘natural’ materials like stone and wood,” said Ms. Lange.
☆ Animal Prints in Interior Design: Awesome or Awful?
  + stars: | 2022-10-14 | by ( Sarah Karnasiewicz | Kathryn O Shea-Evans | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: +1 min
DESIGN PROS’ PERSPECTIVES on animal prints are fiercely divergent. Opponents believe the motifs of zebra and cougar and cowhide hog all the attention in a room, like a miniskirt at a funeral, and as Alexis Barr, instructor at the New York School of Interior Design, said, “carry associations of drama and decadence.” Others believe the prints function as a neutral. Sarah Vaile, an interior designer in Chicago, holds that a critter-pelt pattern actually “falls away” in decor, adding, “The universe knew what it was doing when it made these patterns a camouflage.” Here, two design aficionados take sides. Animal prints bring timeless texture and joie de vivre to a space. The great 20th-century French designer Madeleine Castaing—remembered for befriending avant-garde artists like Jean Cocteau as well as for her affection for wall-to-wall leopard carpet—once summed up her approach to interiors thus: “Be audacious, but with taste.” Is it any wonder she was a devotee of animal prints?
☆ This Fall, the Most Comforting Food Is Also the Coolest
  + stars: | 2022-09-23 | by ( Sarah Karnasiewicz | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
PILLOWY POTATO DUMPLINGS, dusky mushroom soups, plum cakes full of butter: These Slavic soul foods are as much a part of my paternal DNA as my hazel eyes and dark curls. Like clockwork, autumn’s chill triggers my craving for the sweet-and-savory flavors of my people. And it seems a new generation of eaters has decided Eastern European food is not just cozy, but cool. Even before the conflict in Ukraine trained the eyes of the world on the region, back in the early days of the pandemic, chefs Jessica and Trina Quinn launched a pop-up called Dacha 46 from their Brooklyn apartment. Their kapusta piroshki (fried yeast dough filled with caramelized onion, cabbage and carrot) and gravity-defying hazelnut kievsky cakes were drawn from Jessica’s Latvian-Ukrainian-Jewish heritage.
