Just Launched
Wildwood launched a new line of furniture, lighting and home décor with Denise McGaha at High Point’s spring market. The Dallas-based designer shares Wildwood’s appreciation for heritage craftsmanship. When creating this series, she was deeply influenced by time spent at her ranch and her love of the outdoors. “My family’s Texas ranch has served as the greatest inspiration for my designs,” says McGaha. “From wood and stone to sky to earth, I was consistently drawn to the strength and beauty of nature’s elements to design a collection that endures the test of time in both style and function.” The collection achieves a balance between contemporary living and traditional style, leaning into organic materials and texture in a natural palette. Available through The Collective.
Pattern Passion
Madcap Cottage and Country Floors unveiled an exclusive series of 6-by- 6-inch glazed terra cotta tiles. True to the designers’ style, the patterns are playful and colorful. “We wanted to create a tile collection that was inspired by our far-flung adventures and that also captures—and brings to life—the Madcap Cottage passion for prints and patterns that are fun, fresh, and timeless,” note Madcap Cottage co-founders John Loecke and Jason Oliver Nixon. “You will find influences culled from jaunts to England, India and Morocco paired with inviting, never-beige colors.” Available through Country Floors, 15 E. 16th St., NYC.
Repeat Performance
Arteriors welcomes back Barry Dixon. This is the designer’s sixth collection with the brand. The 19-piece assemblage includes furniture, lighting and accessories that draw inspiration from history and the natural world. Dixon took the unconventional approach of “looking backward to think forward,” creating a layered series that feels both modern and timeless. A range of materials—metals, vellum, marble and glass—are interpreted in simplistic silhouettes. “There’s great value in this collection as future heirlooms, and I’m looking forward to seeing how the pieces are able to travel throughout any aesthetic continuum,” says Dixon. Also available through NYDC.
Fashion Mash-Up
Sharing a love of pattern, prints and embroidery, home brand Annie Selke and fashion house Frances Valentine have combined talents on a colorful new collection. “It’s our first crossover into the wonderful world of women’s apparel,” says Selke. Encompassing 28 pieces in florals, stripes and geometrics with an emphasis on color, craft and detail, the Annie Selke x Frances Valentine bedding, pillows and throws are designed to spark joy. Frances Valentine was founded by college friends Elyce Arons and Kate Spade in 2016 to celebrate the power of personal style through mood-boosting and confidence-building fashion. “We’re celebrating the anticipation of summer, the buzzy energy this change of season brings, and the opportunity to change your décor and freshen things up,” says Arons.
